When a ship such as the Starfarer is full of fuel and is attacked and destroyed, how will the fuel be dropped? Will it be in little tiny boxes or will it just vanish?

So because the fuel is part of the fuel pods, right now, in the current state, it will explode with the Starfarer. I already mentioned the screen on the back side of the Starfarer where you control the fuel pods. And there's a little button that says detach. And the detach means that you can drop those fuel pods. And this already gives you a hint of what our aim here is. So if they somehow survive the explosion, that means that other ships are able to pick them up again. So if you own a Starfarer and you just destroyed another Starfarer and you were out of fuel pods that were filled, you might be lucky and can pick them up and attach them to your Starfarer. But this is not for now. This is for the future.
