The TP gauge acts like an HP gauge in the sense of how much materials you have transported already. Mechanically, there are three factors when calculating how much TP gauge will be depleted in a run: (1) Result at boss node, (2) Equipment carried by the fleet, and (3) Ships used in the fleet. The TP gauge depletion is calculated this way:<br>

The TP gauge depletion is calculated this way:<br>
[math] \text{TP Drain} = \text{Floor(Rank Modifier (1.0 or 0.7)} \times \text{(} \sum^\text{All equipment slots} \text{Equipment TP Value} + \sum^\text{All ships in fleet} \text{Ship TP Value)} [/math]
[math] \text{TP Drain} = \text{Floor[Boss Rank Modifier} \times \text{(} \sum^\text{All equipment slots} \text{Equipment TP Value} + \sum^\text{All ships in fleet} \text{Ship TP Value)]} [/math]
=== Result factor ===
Note that the equipment factor and the ship factor only calculates the equipment and ships in fleet as it reaches the drop-off point. Having fewer ships and/or equipment when the point is reached will reduce the amount of TP Drain, but ships/equipment no longer present in fleet ''after'' the drop-off point is reached will not affect the final TP Drain.
[[File:Transport Complete.png|thumb|right|Once you successfully deplete the TP Gauge, the TP Gauge will explode before either the map is considered complete or moves on to the Boss Gauge.]]
=== Boss Result factor ===
This factor is simple: 1.0 for S-rank victory, 0.7 for A-rank victory, and 0 (none) for B-rank or worse. Because of this, it is critical that a fleet is able to sink 4 or more ships at the boss node (which is the minimum requirement for A-rank victory).
=== Equipment factor ===
=== Equipment factor ===
Some equipments provides TP values when used in Transport Operations. Each instance of the equipment shown in the table below contributes towards the TP drain.

Your fleet composition also affects the TP drain, as shown in the table below.
