Solid fuel is a kind of fuel and is processed in a chemical plant. One unit of solid fuel contains 12MJ of energy, three times the energy value of coal.

Besides being useful as fuel in all burner devices, solid fuel is also used to produce rocket fuel, which is a component of rocket parts built in the rocket silo.

Recipes

Solid Fuel can be created from heavy oil, light oil or petroleum gas. Light oil has the best oil to solid fuel ratio (10:1). Cracking heavy oil to light oil first changes the ratio for heavy oil to 13:1 (from 20:1).

Solid fuel is also obtained from recycling Scrap, which is useful on Fulgora.

History

• 2.0.24:
  • Solid fuel from ammonia cost and crafting time reduced: 6 crude oil instead of 20, 15 ammonia instead of 50, and 0.5 seconds instead of 1 second. This was done to mitigate the changes to the ammonia rocket fuel recipe being changed to use 10 solid fuel instead of 3, so that players were less likely to need major changes to their Aquilo bases.

• 2.0.7:
  • Decreased the crafting time of solid fuel from 2 to 1.

• 0.17.0:
  • Relative value of solid fuel decreased by 4%.

• 0.15.0:
  • Fuel type now affects vehicle acceleration and top speed.

• 0.9.0:
  • Introduced
