Hey Hyde,

I just subbed to your mod and I'm having the same issues you described on 04/13; can't transfer fluid into container, and it seems it completely emptied a fuel tank instantly.. Any idea?

Hello there, Linux user. Your mod.info file part "info" is not fully lowcase which breaks linux users, it's currently "mod.Info"

@everyone, I'm pushing an update that should fix any issues with drawing fluid from a fuel pump and the tank being an invalid container, I'm not entirely sure what broke it, but it must've been something with the most recent game update.. Let me know if any issues persist.

*Note* - if the tank is too heavy select "drop" and your inventory will release it.
Also, if its full and on the ground you may not be able to pick it up, you will have to transfer liquids wherever you dropped it. until its light enough to pick up again.

Hi there!

For some reason my tanks are unfillable and turn into a void - a 55L tank just emptied a fresh fuel pump :D
I don't get an error but I run some mods.
Do you have any experience with other mods or an idea what could cuase this? I'll keep looking for the culprid!

@Toilet Flusher can't wait to watch my homies chug the gas tank vodka.

this is SO interesting. really in the spirit of zomboid to find a weird loophole for a problem

can it be used to siphon gas without a hose? it kinda looks like it has a built in hose

They should also gather water when It rains, I'll update the description of the mod soon to add a bit more detail and future plans

As for weights I kept the items base weight and I need testers to verify how fluids affect the items weights, feedback is welcome

I tested with various fluids, water, gasoline, seltzer water, and any other fluid that can be transfered via the fluid transfer menu should be storable within the tanks. I found myself lacking ample water storage pretty far into my game and had tons of gas tanks as I like to work on cars and didn't feel like hunting for water dispensers. They aren't currently configured to explode as I haven't messed with those systems before. ALSO, you can fill the tanks up from *hopefully* any water source, they should be "cookable" which may turn dirty water into clean water. Testing required

@HydeTheBooty98, love it, full stop.

Questions now:
What can I fill it with?
Does what various liquids affect various weights?
What are the weights of full tanks?
Can they 'plode if combustibles are put in them and they are lit on FIRE? (Not for me of course... askin' for a friend. No really, I am)
