    Seems pretty straight forward. We can use warp drive teck but cant figure out how to consistently power a base?
    At least a "Ship Stone " lol anyone remember where that comes from?

    reforged eden adds a radioisotope generator too which can produce 2kW without consuming fuel and can be overdriven by 500W more by consuming prometheum

    Wasn't that some form of infinite energy supply from an old book ? Tried googling it but only found that vague reference.

    We can do virtually all we want with config editing, as long as it does not involve creating a new function or moving parts. Energy stuff might be one of the easiest to create after "deco items", by copying/ renaming any generator and tank, and creating any energy source form (rocks, packs, etc) and their templates. We can then make new icons, and even models so the only limit is imagination and time. And of course knowledge of how all this is done, but there are plenty of helpful people around the forum for that.

    also who says prometium in not fusion? maybe there is heavy hydrogen in it.
    fusion uses heavy hydrogen, and to get that you need tons of water to extract it from; or a other source like (by guess) prometium.

    At least ELEON could give us back the old Doughnut Warp Drive and re-christian it as a Fusion Reaktor.;)
