To set up a hierarchy for power usage, the priority number in the Modules tab on the right-side panel can be changed for each individual module. Priority ranges from numbers "1" (highest priority) through "5" (lowest priority). For instance, a module with "5" has the lowest possible priority and will shut down first in the case of power draw excess. | To set up a hierarchy for power usage, the priority number in the Modules tab on the right-side panel can be changed for each individual module.

When a ship is purchased, all of its modules are set to priority "3". If a module is replaced, swapped or modified by an [[Engineers|Engineer]], that module (or its replacement) will be set to priority "1". | |||
The idea is to set the highest number ("5") for modules which are expendable in [[combat]]. This includes [[Cargo Hatch]], [[Frame Shift Drive]], [[Fuel Scoop]], and so forth. | The idea is to set the highest number ("5") for modules which are expendable in [[combat]].
