Can't order more than one ship to refuel

Post by youthexplosion1210 »

If I have more that one ship that needs refueling the video from one pilot pops up but the audio for both plays.

Expected: I would get the option to order both to refuel (either one after the other or in one menu/click)

Actual: No menu comes up at all

Workaround: Order one ship on a dummy trade run (you know they can't complete) and have just one ship state they need refueling.

Luckily I only have two ships at 10 hours in. Please note: I haven't yet found a cell fac that my ships can fly to to refuel, could be the problem?
Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.

There are atleast 4 dock points on a cell recharger for refuelling. At a guess yes you do need to have the cell recharger in your trade computer for refuelling. I would suggest doing the small talk to someone onboard to be a trade agent it will help a lot.

I'm not getting the option to send ships to refuel though the log says ships are running out of fuel I hope there going to the cell rechargers to refuel as I'm not getting an option to ask them to refuel.

Can confirm this bug happens. I just drop one from squad but would love if this got fixed. Its annoying when you have a bunch of ships that you just want to have jump one system. I don't want to send them to refuel just for that one jump.

I can't see those dock points so I tried quicksaving as suggested elsewhere and docking/undocking but that didn't work. I'll try smalltalking an NPC tonight and see.

I can give the order of refuel: 50k but they're stuck 'calculating parameters'.
