We've encountered an issue with AP system. Every time we've enabled it, the ship turned in the wrong direction. It feels like X and Y coordinates are swapped somewhere by mistake

I indeed have run into that before. I returned to a dead ship, but the detail backups in the engine room saved me from extra hassle. My solution became turning on the backup generator to auto whenever I leave the ship with position hold active.

From an engineering perspective if it doesnt make sense to incorporate that change, no worries. It will still be my go to tanker.

@tzbaker That is a great idea! My only fear is that position hold does drain lots of battery if left for long, which wouldn't make it ideal for that use
tzbaker 5 May @ 12:44pm 
Fan of your work. Can you implement a way for the position hold thrusters to kick in after the AP reaches its destination?

I'm not able to pump diesel into the cargo hold of the tanker. I have connected the hose to the fluid in port, started the pump in and turned on the fill valves. but the tank in use indicator is not comming on, how can i fix this problem?

Thank you so much! :) They can be bypassed or use gas/liquid relief valves!

I think I see where they would go. I'm just not certain how to fill the 'gaps'. Any insight would be appreciated.

Off topic, I love your builds. The functionality of them is unparalleled. :steamthumbsup:

Thanks for the quick reply!
Career mode issue. Can they simply be bypassed? Or do they need to be replaced by something else?
454SS  [author] 15 Apr @ 9:51pm 
Do they not work or is an issue in career mode?
ratzafratz2000 15 Apr @ 9:48pm 
Any chance of fixing the depreciated fluid filters?
Jimpuffpuff 8 Apr @ 4:23pm 
ok so they probably added it for private military company they hire
454SS  [author] 7 Apr @ 9:32pm 
Pirates?

what "emergencies" need an armory on a civil vessel
Urbanicus 27 Mar @ 12:42am 
Ship will be stopped, at anchor, with ignition turned off. Randomly, engines turn on for a few seconds and the ship starts moving all on its own. Is this the auto-generator kicking in?

How do I add oil to transport?
454SS  [author] 24 Feb @ 6:48pm 
Fixed! It was the old style connector! Now it is the H4 system (all my helis)
randomdude0429 24 Feb @ 6:27pm 
what helicopter do i use with this, i looked through them and i cant find any that work
royal.Panic 21 Feb @ 6:58pm 
Is anyone else having a problem with the autoballast never closing the bow and stern tanks?
mikeyurenia 19 Nov, 2024 @ 7:57pm 
Can you make a budget version pls
like as cheap as you possibly can
Mr_Tacoz 7 Oct, 2024 @ 6:09pm 
Any chance to update and make pumping out a lot more faster?
Feels like i'm better off not doing liquids because of how slow the pump out / in is (Mainly pump out).
otherwise its a really good ship enjoy using it and the container version.

Hello, I love your work. Have you considered using the area under the helipad as a compressor tank, to pressurise the cargo tank?
the toxic mat 25 Jul, 2024 @ 6:24am 
what is the master code
Hooch 5 Jul, 2024 @ 8:02am 
if i tap 'e' whilst aiming at the red attachment it releases. I was holding 'e' :( is there a button/switch release? thx for replying.
454SS  [author] 5 Jul, 2024 @ 7:59am 
@Hooch there should be a way, but I will take a look!
Hooch 5 Jul, 2024 @ 6:13am 
how do i release the magnetic connection on the crane? I'm stuck to a fuel selling point.
great ship!
gossen.leonard 28 Jun, 2024 @ 11:11am 
Pretty sure there is a button you can press to use thrusters for speed
puppetmaster5000 4 Jun, 2024 @ 4:27pm 
bro is there any way i can get this thing to move faster?
Beowulf 12 May, 2024 @ 10:13am 
How do I enable the ports on deck?
Gristle 4 Mar, 2024 @ 11:31am 
What does the Bridge indicator flashing "One or more engine failures" mean? I checked and they look fine.
gossen.leonard 26 Feb, 2024 @ 1:16pm 
454 can you add a rhib hoist to the rear
454SS  [author] 23 Feb, 2024 @ 11:35am 
Look near the entry door clipboard and near the ignition key:)
VULTURE 23 Feb, 2024 @ 11:17am 
what the armory code
gossen.leonard 20 Feb, 2024 @ 5:35am 
Thanks!🫡
454SS  [author] 19 Feb, 2024 @ 9:33pm 
Near the ignition key!
gossen.leonard 19 Feb, 2024 @ 4:13pm 
Also where are the anchor controls
gossen.leonard 15 Feb, 2024 @ 1:11pm 
454 do you have plans for a container ship almost like this one?🤔
BRIM 2 Feb, 2024 @ 5:51pm 
what the code to master
SilverRogue2012 24 Jan, 2024 @ 8:00am 
The bow ballast doesn't drain. Only fills.
random_guy 20 Jan, 2024 @ 9:24am 
@454SS You should have a look at the cargo pumping system as I filled the tanker to the max and cant unload more than 3% percent of it. Maybe the new fluid system messed it up. :steamsad:
Shaggy 10 Jan, 2024 @ 9:33am 
It's saying that my email is already registered I do not know how to fix this
Shaggy 10 Jan, 2024 @ 9:31am

@454SS I have made two containers for ALTA and would like to Upload both of them so that other People can use them!

@MuricaRules sorry no, this is a decor part! I try to optimize my creations with functional options!

can you make the fake pool table into the pool table with the monitor so you can play pool
gossen.leonard 1 Dec, 2023 @ 5:32am 
Can chopper carry oil??

I have a cooling solution that can run prebuilt engines at 100RPS at below 32C
1) You have an air line and a liquid line fed by pumps that are always on when running
2) Make a microcontroller that blinks two valves a liquid valve with .1 second blink and a .2 second off time which goes directly to liquid valve and a not gate going to the air valve
3) Cold
I have a little demonstration setup on the workshop named the solution to cooling or something along those lines

ah alrighty then, thanks

@PooPooKing1 this is a bug in the game - I have videos discussing this and trying to fix it
