Resources
Propellant - Thrusters burn propellant to create thrust that moves the ship. The propellant is stored in propellant tanks.
Electricity - Devices and machinery need power to operate. Electricity can be produced with generators and it can be stored in batteries.
Fuel - Generators use fuel rods for electricity production.
Coolant - While producing electricity, generators will produce heat as well that needs to be cooled down. Coolant runs through the generator units and can be stored in coolant cells placed in a cooling rack. Radiators can recycle certain amount of coolant and re-use it again.
Refillable and rechargeable
Propellant tanks can be refilled at Refill Stations with the resource bridge connection. The ship's resource bridge needs to have a pipe connection to propellant tanks and a tether connection to the Refill Station's resource bridge.
Batteries can be recharged at the Refill Stations with the resource bridge connection. The ship's resource bridge needs to have a cable connection to the batteries and a tether connection to the Refill Station's resource bridge.
Replaceable
Fuel rods need to be replaced with new ones when ran out of fuel.
Coolant cells need to be replaced with new ones when ran out of coolant. Coolant cells can be refilled in the coolant refill rack.
