Nevermind, you can’t barrel space fuel, which is disappointing.
What about the fuel thing?
Obviously it’s a little cheesy, since you can’t make both fuel types without some degree of space access.
But in theory you can make the majority of the products for it on the ground, shove it in barrels, then send it up. And then the chemical plant gets replaced by an assembly machine swapping between the fuel types.
You could put more efficiency modules, which would help with energy problems. Couple that with no need for the chunk collector and reduced need for logic components, and you’d probably be fine with 1 solar panel.
Is the accumulator truly necessary? Also, maybe it’s worth manufacturing the fuel on the ground and shipping it up, so the chunk collector isn’t needed. Might also free up some of the logic components.
You don’t need seats, an c02 scrubber, or any of that fancy stuff.
I wonder if you could slim it down further by getting rid of the turret, and storing replacement parts in cargo.
Ablative ships! Woo! I hope you’re ok with a one way trip.
No it isn’t
