About charging a ship without a generator

[MAXD]

How can I charge a ship like Vasama ? Can I link cable from another ship? Or there are cooler ways?

Vasama has two small batteries,when it use up that batteries need to recharge.

I didn't think recharging from the stations was possible yet so you may just have to replace the batteries all together.

I did see that some of the Alpha Testers were able to connect wires and pipes from ones ship to another if the two ships were absolutely still. You could probably find someone whom you could mooch some power off of.

That's my surfboard (fuel tank + 2 batteries + single thruster) recharged from small generator setup using cable tool.
Both crafts are small enough to be picked up, so you just need to position them properly.

Below recharging by using rail mover for power transfer. Doesn't require cable tool.

Hopefully there will be better methods of transmitting power from one ship to another, or from a station to a ship but closed alpha currently does not seem to have any specific features to enable that. Though apparently CalenLoki found a work around. Of course temporarily connected the wiring of the two ships also works.
