Playing around in Starfield is a lot of fun until you find out that none of the structures in your outpost is functioning properly. It would’ve been more interesting if random accidents occur depending on how badly put together your outpost is but that’s for a different day to discuss.
Not all settlements can be powered by the sun or wind. That’s where fuel generators come in to save the day, but they don’t take in resources like the other modules. If you want to find out how the fuel generators work keep on reading the guide and bring power to your Outpost!
How to Use Fuel Generator in Starfield
The fuel generators use up to 1 unit of Helium 3 per cycle every minute. In order to insert a resource into the fuel generator, you’re going to have to build a Gas Storage Container first.
Walk up to your container and transfer all of the Helium 3 you got inside of it. Now, you have to make an output link next.
But in order to make an output link, you’re going to have to put down the generator first. After that, feel free to get an Extractor going as well.
Now, walk up to your extractor and click on it to create an output link. A red line will appear, drag that to your gas storage in order to connect the two modules. Make sure that you’re starting the line from the extractor first, not the other way around!
Now, do the same thing going to the Fuel Generator. Create an output link coming from the container and connect it to the closest generator you have. The fuel generator will start humming and produce a power output of 20 as long as there’s an extractor nearby to supply it.
And that’s how you can use a Fuel Generator in Starfield. Now you can finish your outpost and start looting destroyed and damaged ships on your next trip!
