I love it! ^^ I ALWAYS run out of fuel right after scooping though? Im definitely doing it wrong, I make a circle orbit through the green band and that uses all my fuel, I lose hull and my fuel doesn't go back up? The best survival I get is 40% by selecting a planet with tectonics, and I swear your lovely and gorgeous planets look like they have dense clouds and then theres no atmosphere again! ^^ great game though I wish I was better at it! :)

Hehe, the different systems (weather, atmosphere, etc.) sadly aren’t tied together as tightly as we wanted them to be - a number of parameters are more or less random 😅
As for running out of fuel and scooping stars - we regrettably don’t have anything in the game to indicate it, but the yellow band around the star has the best fuel-to-hull-damage ratio, so the most hull-effective way of scooping fuel is to just pass through parts of the yellow band and then let the trajectory pull you away from the star again~
I’ve added a hints section to the game page based on your feedback, thank you! And thank you for playing~!
