Hi,

Thanks for the report. In the save you've provided you have not yet unlocked the Star-Eaters, so I can't check the reported power disparity between them. Can you please attach a save with the issue present or the exact steps you took?

Having looked at the second save you attached and inspecting the ship designs you have for your two Star-Eaters all appears as I'd expect it to.

But one has 4 A slot extra power while the other has extra A slot shield extenders is there not a power disparity there? i cannot build the 2 as equalls.(power as in energy)

I had a another look at things and I think I've figured out what happened. One of the designs (the more with more power) isn't calculating the power required from the thrusters correctly. When I compared them I was having a look at the total power output, thanks for the extra poke :)
