Think of the SFX or the Fuel Transport as naval repair vessels. That is what they are. They carry extra fuel and spare parts for ships.

However, since the repair vessel is not at a planet or a base, its resources are limited.

Fuel boosters are another item. These are the cheapest extra fuel you can build - so, think of them as the 2nd stage rocket. They are 'sort of' dispensible. Add them to fleets and run for one year at warp 9 - you may only need to go warp 8 or 7 that second year to get to you location in 2 turns AND, you can then send the boosters back to their launch point at warp 9 with a minimum amount of fuel to get there in one turn. This concept works wel for numerous variations epending on universe size, density, race propulsion tech available etc.

The most fuel is burned by carrying cargo - colonists are cargo. In the early stages of any game, you need to move colonists as fast as possible.

To be a mid - late powerhouse, you must maximize population movement first and mineral movement second - or, do so adding minerals as a secondary to population. You can't build anything without minerals.

Kind regards

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
