<para>Each ship has an amount of energy (refer to the game

options for values). </para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Ships need energy for rotation, acceleration, shooting and laying mines. A
|
|
ship gets energy from its solar panels. The amount of energy a ship gets depends
|
|
on the distance from and direction to the sun. A ship gets more energy near the
|
|
sun and less energy near the border. It gets the full amount of energy if the
|
|
sun shines directly on the panels and less or even no energy if the sun shines
|
|
at an angle to the panel or to the side of the panel.</para>

<para>If a ship has no energy it can't navigate or shoot. </para>

ship. If two ships collide, the weaker ship is destroyed and the hit points of
|

the stronger ship are decreased by the hit points of the weaker ship plus an
|
|
amount (Crash Damage). A ship is destroyed when it flies into the sun.</para>

energy is spent, the mine falls into the sun. Mines near the sun need more

energy than those which are further away. </para>
