[Beta 2] Fuel service suggestion
Recommend limiting ships to buy 1 or 2 hyperfuel.

I submitted several bug reports related to the Fuel service (hyperfuel quantity incorrect, NPCs able to use fuel service when I have no fuel, etc.). This isn't about that. This is about balancing.

Hyperium isn't easy to come by in Station mode. I made 20 hyperfuel ... start offering Fuel service and it's all gone in a day. Because of the bug with the count I can't be sure, but it seems like a single ship will buy 10+ fuel if it's available. I can buy every scrap of hyperium from every passing ship and can't keep a fuel supply going. And (possibly related to my previous post) ... it seems every ship wants to buy fuel whether it's one of their listed needs or not.

In short, too many ships ... not enough hyperium ... fuel service just doesn't seem sustainable.

EDIT: I just looked at my stats for Fuel service - 43 Customers served, 254 units sold. That means on AVERAGE each ship bought 5.9 hyperfuel.
