| − | Distance is a number that tells how far apart, two places are in the universe. The distance is use when calculating travel times.

| − | ===Galaxy to Galaxy===
| |
| − | The distance from any planet in one galaxy to any planet in another galaxy is 20,000 terameters for each galaxy traveled. So to go from galaxy 1 to galaxy 3 would be a distance of:
| |
| − | ''20,000 * (3 - 1) = 40,000 Tm.''
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Solar System to Solar System In The Same Galaxy===
| |
| − | The distance from any planet in one Solar System to any planet in another Solar System in the same galaxy is equal to 95 for each solar system traveled, plus 2,700. So to travel from solar system 1 to solar system 10 in the same galaxy, we would use:
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''(10-1)*95 + 2,700 = 3,555

| − | ===Planet to Planet Within The Same Solar System===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The distance from any planet in one Solar System to another planet in the same Solar System is equal to 5 for each planet, plus 1,000. So to travel from planet 1 to planet 10 within the same Solar System would be:
| |
| − | | |
| − | ''5 * 9 + 1,000 = 1,045''

| − | ==Travel Times==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The time it takes, in seconds, to travel from one planet to another is calculated according to:

| |
| − | | |
| − | Where ''speed'' is the speed of the slowest class of ships in the fleet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Where ''speed percentage'' is a value from 1 to 10, representing 10% to 100%, selected in the speed drop-down.

| − | ==Fuel==
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Hydrogen]] is the fuel used to move your [[ships|starships]] through space. Each ship has a consumption rating that tells you how much fuel a ship will use while traveling. The higher the consumption rating, the more fuel used. The entire amount of hydrogen needed for the trip must be stored on the planet where the ships are located, and your fleet must be able to carry all the fuel it needs for the entire trip in its cargo space. You can add freighters to your fleet to carry more fuel, and you can reduce the fuel consumption of your fleet by sending it off at a slower speed. | |
| − | | |
| − | == Consumption ==
| |
| − | The following equation shows the fuel consumption.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Fuel Consumption = Number of Ships * Consumption * (Distance/35,000) * (Speed%/100 * (slowestshipspeed/currentshipspeed)^.5 + 1)^2
| |
| − | | |
| − | ;Note:"Number of Ships" is the number of ships ''of that type''. You must compute the consumption for each type of ship in the fleet separately.
