Newbie: Energy management


When I try to use the cap ships special abilities, I see a message about a cooldown period.

I wanted to know, what I can do to better manage the lack of energy.

You may want to have your ships not use auto-cast on their abilities. They can't go forever with them all on. (Right click on the button to turn on/off, spinning arrow represents on.)

CapShips gain increased anti-matter (And anti-matter regen.) through higher levels, while all ships get the increases when upgraded with research.

Can't edit:

Cooldown period is the length of time after an ability is used before it can be used again. A few other abilities affect this. Other than that, it can only be changed by modding.
