I need to continuously to refuel my launch thrusters
I finding myself needing to refuel my launch thrusters all time now since the release of 4.0. I did not needed to refuel launch thrusters at all before then. So, did they nerf the recharge rate on the recharge mod or does the thruster are using more fuel? And with said, I also seem to be using more warp cells lately to warp. Anyone else experiencing this too?

recharge mod? is that some 3rd party thing? i just load the launcher recharger as it comes in-game and don't seem to have any problems with it... but i also don't launch every 10 seconds, either...

Nah, one of the technology enhancements you can find is an auto-recharger for the thrusters. Additionally, another one improves the efficiency and reduces fuel use. Both are vanilla augmentations.

Yep, one of the basic Launch Thruster modifications from the vendor on the anomaly. Once you have one of these, you'll never look back.

I think OP is saying he has all the thruster upgrades but its as if he does not. I would try packaging them and re-installing. If that doesn't work find a another S class thruster upgrade to add and maybe that will wake up the recharging.

What's your difficulty setting?

@Heavyarms, there's a fuel useage setting in the custom difficulty options. Have you perhaps set it to the highest whereas you were used to it being normal before?

Though, in my game, even on the highest setting, with the recharger module plus 3 S-class upgrades (for fuel efficiency), I haven't had to recharge thrusters at all. My Living Ship is the only one that isn't able to keep up with it.

yeah, i know both of these... my question was mainly targeting the OP's use of the term "mod"... AFAIK the only "mods" for NMS are 3rd party mods you download from somewhere outside of the game and place in the GAMEDATA/PCBANKS/MODS directory and remoe the DISABLEMODS.txt file for them to work...

things in-game are "upgrades" or "enhancements"... terminology is important...

Mod is also a shortened version of the word 'module'. And they are 'technology modules'. Quite a few of us (who play the game) call what we add to our technology slots 'mods'. The wiki page for them is even named "Upgrade Modules".

Edit to add: Heck, even with the term mod being short for 'modification' it is accurate for those tech mods, seeing as they do indeed modify the performance/functionality of the technology they are applied to.

Never knew that existed. I've always refueled like forever. I don't mind it. I have to refuel my car all the time so it's not a big problem in game. Just one of those things you have to do, like cleaning dust off stuff and providing gas and electric... It never ends. NEVER.

Oh wait, I'm talking too realistic aren't I? I sometimes forget.
