The refuel hub has a minimum value of 10.000.000 - so the maximum it can handle.
(Hmmm, might that be the problem?)

Yes, it was 100% full, and also yes, it was tracktoring something... you think, that might prevent refueling?

The "minimum fuel" setting tells the ship how much fuel it should keep when it transfers fuels to other ships.
It would be more accurately called the "reserved fuel" setting.

Yes.  That means 'never give up any fuel.'

Try setting minimum fuel to 0.  Minimum fuel is reserved for the ship's own use, so it is not available for refuelling other ships.

Is the tug tractoring anything at the time of refueling?

Did the hub have any fuel on board?

Does your Hub have a minimum fuel amount set?  And did the tug definitely refuel from the structural shell and not the colony on the ground (via Spaceport or something)?  Did the order take 45 hours?

Hi Guys,

I can't get refueling hubs to work. This is my hub:

Code: [Select]
HR Rabat Hargeisa 003  (Rabat Hargeisa class Refuel Hub)      111,160 tons       30 Crew       2,659.3 BP       TCS 2,223    TH 0    EM 0

MSP 14    Max Repair 2400 MSP
Lieutenant Commander    Control Rating 1   BRG   
Intended Deployment Time: 3 months   
Refuelling Hub - Capable of refuelling multiple ships simultaneously

Fuel Capacity 10,000,000 Litres    Range N/A

This design is classed as a Commercial Vessel for maintenance purposes
This design is classed as a Space Station for construction purposes
And I tried to refuel this ship:
Code: [Select]
TG Turbine 002  (Turbine Mk.II class Tug)      7,700 tons       120 Crew       535.5 BP       TCS 154    TH 313    EM 0

The Log entry says that the TUG has completed its refueling orders, but no fuel gets transfered whatsoever.
Bug or am I missing something?
