Used in the production of orbital rockets. It is the second-most long-lasting of all the fuel types, beat only by [[Nuclear fuel]]. Rocket fuel can also be used in burner devices to provide 100MJ of energy, however this is slightly less efficient than using 10 [[solid fuel]]s unless extra products are created using [[productivity module]]s.

Used in the production of orbital rockets. It is the second-most long-lasting of all the fuel types, beat only by Nuclear fuel. Rocket fuel can also be used in burner devices to provide 100MJ of energy, however this is slightly less efficient than using 10 solid fuels unless extra products are created using productivity modules.

Vanilla: 10 rocket fuel are required for each rocket part, so 1000 rocket fuel are needed for each rocket launch. Additionally 50 rocket fuel are required for each satellite.

Space Age: 1 rocket fuel is required for 1 rocket parts, and 50 rocket parts are needed for a rocket launch. So 50 rocket fuel are needed for each rocket launch.

History

  • 2.0.24:
    • Changed rocket fuel from ammonia recipe to require the same amount of solid fuel as the main rocket fuel recipes to prevent a recycling loop.
  • 2.0.7:
    • Increased rocket fuel stack size from 10 to 20.
  • 0.17.60:
    • Rocket fuel requires light oil.
  • 0.17.0:
    • Relative fuel value of rocket fuel decreased by 10.6%.
  • 0.15.0:
    • Fuel type now affects vehicle acceleration and top speed.
  • 0.13.0:
    • Rocket fuel can now be used as fuel.
