Thread: Reactor Overload Output Display

When you run a reactor overload command, is there any way to see what the current reactor output is? Theship management screen in space seems to only display the reactor's base output.


A related question, I'm trying to get all components active in my firespray when using the overloads. As I'm bringing all the overloads online (reactor, capacitor, weapons, engine), my launchers seem to go from "low power" to "100%", but never to "enabled". What's the difference between 100% and enabled?

Nope - but you can calculate it merely by adding 10, 20, 30, or 40% (depending on which program you use) onto your current gen rate to know.

Thanks. Yeah I've been doing the calculations manually, was just sort of hoping for something to verify the numbers. But I thinkI figured out that I was just computing the total overload energy drains wrong.

pardon the threadjack here but:
What does overloading the reactor do for you?

are you useing any level four overload chips? if so these put way too much stress on your ships components. Iwould sugest useing all level three overloads and level four for sheild shunt.

Nothing puts too much strain if you visit Deep Space after every flight.

Actually the numbers are 15, 30, 60, and 90%. See A Comprehensive Droid Routine Breakdown.
