  1. Hi everybody! Is there a thread/post anywhere on how much fuel using the various P.E.T. Gears/actions consumes

    If so, I'd be grateful if someone could please post a link here.

    If there isn't, then I'd be grateful for all
    contributions to creating one.

    Thanx.

    Formula for Fuel Usage1 + ( [PET Level] * 2 ) + ( [Ai Protocols equipped] * 2 ) + ( [Gears equipped] * 4)
     
  3. Thank you so much for your response. Allow me to clarify what kind of information I'm looking for.

    For example:

    How much fuel is used for each trip by a lvl-(1, 2, 3) Cargo trader?

    How much fuel is used each time Combo repair is activate?

    As per the given formula the amount of fuel used really depends on the level of your pet and how many protocols and gears you have equipped. To reduce consumption only use the gears/protocols necessary for the current task.
     
  5. The formula is not helpful without an increment.

    For instance, if a pilot is using the auto-looter, how does the formula apply?

    1 + ( [PET Level] * 2 ) + ( [Ai Protocols equipped] * 2 ) + ( [Gears equipped] * 4) per activation of the looter?

    1 + ( [PET Level] * 2 ) + ( [Ai Protocols equipped] * 2 ) + ( [Gears equipped] * 4) per each second, minute, or hour of use?

    1 + ( [PET Level] * 2 ) + ( [Ai Protocols equipped] * 2 ) + ( [Gears equipped] * 4) per each (unspecified) unit of distance traveled?

    1 + ( [PET Level] * 2 ) + ( [Ai Protocols equipped] * 2 ) + ( [Gears equipped] * 4) per each box picked up?

    The formula requires a unit(s) of measure to apply it to.

    Sorry, the formula is applied when the pet is activated and then each minute afterwards.

    Assuming your pet is already activated then for the level 3 combo rep it will take: Consumption: 750 Fuel
    when you use that ability. Of course this is in addition to any activation if pet is away before you use or additional per minute cost if it's already out.

    Hope that makes more sense now.
     
  8. Pet Works Best when you have fuel protocols i have some 6-7 lvl 3 and it works superb.
    It as decreased the consumption of fuel very much. I use kami a lot and i need to buy 50k for 4 days before i was buying it for 2 days :D

    DARSHAN, when calculating the "savings" from fuel protocols as per the calculation it really doesn't seem like it would save you 50%

    If you pet is level 15 and you only have kami gear and fuel protocols on then the calculation works out to be 49 with 7 fuel protocols saving 14 fuel meaning a cost of 35 fuel.

    Total cost... 1+(15*2)+(7*2)+(1*4) = 49
    - saving from protocols ((7*4)/100)*49 = 13.72 Let's call this 14.
    49-14 = 35

    Without using any fuel protocols the pet would use 35.

    1+(15*2)+(1*4) = 35

    This is the calculation that support have given us and makes the fuel protocols basically worthless. If it works a different way then that might explain your saving more fuel; another player has suggested that they found them to be good also. However support have given this as the calculation and using that it shows that the fuel protocols save so little fuel it's hardly measurable.

    Thank you all for assisting with this thread.

    Do you (the original poster) have any further questions or can we close?
