Exploration plays a huge part in Starfield, it’s a game where you’re supposed to be outside all of the time after all, like No Man’s Sky! But exploration always comes with risks, and that’s what makes trips more exciting. Well, until you’re on the receiving end of drifting in space endlessly because you forgot to gas up, then it’s a problem.
Carrying extra fuel is another splendid idea, just put it next to your trade goods and pray to whatever celestial being is out there that your livelihood won’t catch on fire. A third option would be to increase your ship’s fuel capacity, check out the guide if you missed out on how to do this.
How to Increase Your Ship Fuel Capacity
There are two ways for you to increase ship’s fuel capacity. You can go for the easy option of buying larger fuel tanks or level up your Astrodynamics skill.
Your ship doesn’t need to refuel every time you leave a planet, so you won’t be doing any stopovers as there are no spaceports nearby that offer such a service.
Spending skill points in Astrodynamics allows you to do longer gravity jumps. You can further reduce your fuel consumption by competing certain challenges and you’ll get to a point where you use 50% less fuel than usual.
Another perfectly reasonable thing to do in space to increase your fuel capacity is to steal a better ship. You can buy one as well if you have the money for it, but where’s the fun in that?
Increasing your ship fuel is also possible by buying the 900T HE3 Tank, which is the best fuel tank you can get if we’re purely talking about capacity.
And those are the ways to increase your ship’s fuel capacity in Starfield! Now go out there and recklessly explore the farthest reach you can get to!
