ship don't turn

Cant find a way to turn on the genarators

I think if you removed the pool table and added compressed air tanks that ran off of separate generators you could push the compressed air (oxygen) into each holding tank. they would need to run off a mechanical generator as it would be stronger then battery back up and you would be able to compress gas while at port. this would accelerate the fluid discharge, then for filling you would need a Manually controlled valve that would vent the compressed air as it was filled with a new liquid.

also if you converted 2 of the bedrooms into a tool room and filled it with a crap ton of torches and repair equipment it would be even better for career mode.

i left the game running with the pumps off loading the diesel fuel that is in the storage tanks. after about 12 hours real time the tanks are just below half and have come to an almost complete stop.

as the tanks near empty the pump at an increasingly slower rate. how do i keep them from slowing down when pumping out of the tanks?

Huh, I didn't see it. I'll look again later.

@The Nameless - There is a door where you can get up on the ladder. Open it when you go up.

I can't get in the boat from the water. I could probably jump in from the quay, but that won't help me when I'm trying to screw around on oil rigs where the fall is dangerously far and I have to get in the water.

Ladder needs to lead to the open deck, not make me try to get into a too-small hole in the superstructure.

Phenomenal go-to tanker.
I'm seeing people are saying they can't pump diesel or jet a-1, or can't fill with this or that etc.
I've managed all 3, simultaneously. It takes a bit to wrap your head around the pump system but it is incredibly adaptable.

I also found that the storage box beside the crane has a universal fluid nozzle on a tether. This is not connected to the tanks, it is hooked up to a hose connection for the sake of stowing it so you can swap the head on the crane. Swapping this is a must-have if you want to use the crane-based fluid transfer between sell-points instead of the direct hose ports. The swap is super easy to do.
Learning the pump system takes some practice, but the ability to shunt fluid from one tank to another so you can start taking in another fuel type while selling something else is fantastic.

The pool table is incredibly addictive to play.

can,t pump out diesel or jet a-1 to base. can only pump in to ship.

cant seem to fill this with crude oil sadly

hey i love the ship but is there an easy way to detach the side boats?

Frantic used this

HI! first of all I congratulate you on the ship! she's gorgeous.
I saw that you finally managed to understand the mechanics of gas/liquid. How did you manage to find the solution? I've been banging my head against it for days and I can't get out of it! I tried your vessel and it is certainly faster than mine at getting liquids out of the tanks. I saw that you used the fluid ports with the relif gas and I tried too but without success! Can you tell me something more about this new mechanic? THANK YOU SO MUCH =D

How do I fuel the ship?

this amazing. You will be forever remembered as the person who made an Octan tanker in stormworks

can u do cargo version?

hey how do you use the radio and turn generator on? there no instruction anywhere

@zambasshik - I made same tests and I what could be the problem. I'm trying to find a solution.
This whole new fluid/gas mechanic is a bit cloudy to me.

I did another test with the ship updated, filled the hold with diesel and went back to base. I didn't wait as long but after 10 minutes the one tank went from 26000 to 19000. Where as when I was emptying crude it just stopped at about 18000 but that was after a half hour of doing nothing. I wasn't waiting that long. At its current rate, it might technically work now, but it practically does not.

I am new to this game. I filled this ship with crude and it gave me no problems. When I went to sell it I was able to empty only a few thousand litres from 3 of the tanks before I couldn't sell anymore. What happened and how do I fix it?

I have updated the ship with some of the requested features. Let me know if something is not working as expected. Feel free to leave suggestions on how can I make the ship better.

Hello.
Thanks everyone for the kind words. I didn't had time to play since my son was born. Now I have a bit of free time. I will try to read back all the suggestions and see if I can implement them.

@czellnix - What do you want instead of the telescope? Flooding alarm is a good idea. I have no idea why I didn't add it already.

@RockinL1am - I know the helipad is a bit small. I can't really make it bigger since the ship it self is medium sized. I can try to make a small heli that can fit on it.

amazing ship but can u replace that telescope and add alarms about floding?

This tanker ship is one of the best on the workshop so far. I used it to haul some Diesel and Jet Fuel, filled all the tanks and topped up the ships fuel as well and still went a steady 20 knots. I even had a helicopter on the helipad as well.

The only complaint I have is the helipad is a bit small and any helicopter too heavy will capsize the ship when docked, otherwise an amazing tanker

This ship is probably the best ship I've ever used in this game. It was able to survive 3 kraken attacks and one during a tsunami. Even though the tanks were full, it still managed to survive being completely submerged multiple times, even with damage to the hull.

Replace the telescope at the back with an auto-canon to fend against megs

Solid build, one of the best tankers I've been able to find on here

This thing is really nice. I was getting frustrated trying to make my own tanker ship so I'll just use your nice one :).

when i pump out the oil from the fluid tank(i filled them with oil) into the gas station on my space, it just cause oil spill

although i fill the fuel tank into max, but the ship is only running 2 knot

How to start the autopilot ?

Fox, you planing on make that radio ch 0 repeater to be able to use gantry freqs?

TY, this is the most pleasant liquidcargo ship and the most I use now.

XHU, bridge lights are close to stairs, little blue circle, touch it.

where do i turn on the generator and main captain room lights?

i love this ship a bit faster would be nice and a better light switch because if it gets damaged you cannot get them back on

More Speed?

Is this still on a functioning state?

The deck lights dont seem to work

The following issue must be caused by one of the game's updates. But it is easy to fix. When a tank is full, an 'out' digital display shows only around 9700L while its tooltip shows a correct number around 25000L. But I can pump out only 9700L and other volume is lost forever. This issue is true for all six tanks. To fix this, you'll have to delete all six 'OUT' digital displays, save/load the ship and place new six 'OUT' digital displays (then of course connect their NUM, ON/OFF and ELECTRIC signals).

This ship is amazing.

@Popeye - It is using Zizo's AIO System. It supports multiple waypoints.

what AP are you using? is it one waypoint only?

Love the new screens n stuff! They are amazing!! I would love to see aft draft marks and/or bow prop warning symbols. But other than that, amazing ship!!

Been cruising around in this for the past couple days. An absolute joy.

really awesome ship. thank you !!!!

@ Jigzy - Thank you for pointing this out. I have updated the ship. Should be good now.

Ballast on the starboard (right) side were set to ''Diesel'' when i downloaded the ship, causing it to tip to portside (left) when spawning, due to diesel apparantely being lighter than sea water in game. It was a simple enough fix, but took me a little time to figure it out.

price?

can you add trim so i can make it go fast and does well not capsizing
