- Low Fuel Efficiency Updates: First things first - powering your base with hydrogen indeed requires a lot of ice. And note that that's comparing them using the hydrogen engine, hydrogen thrusters are 5-25 times less efficient, depending on the thruster alternative being considered. I typically try to design them the right way, but I use a Inventory Script and I think it plays by its own rules. Biggest change was that the ion thrusters have profoundly less power. I dont know about the first question but the second seems like a terrible idea. Beam Blocks The lack of storage density means that most hydrogen-driven craft must also have an O2/H2 generator on board (or multiple), and the ice to fuel them, increasing mass and decreasing the net thrust advantage.
