Title: Ship to Ship refueling
Post by: DEFLEP on December 16, 2020, 03:43:15 AM
Can someone point me in the direction of a step by step guide to ship to ship refueling please? I've looked through the forum seeing the post on 1. 95 refueling issues.  Tried lots of combinations of refueling from targets, own fleets etc but just can't figure it out.  I have a survey vessel out of fuel that I want to rescue with a tanker.

Running V1. 12

Victory class Tanker      2,352 tons       38 Crew       87 BP       TCS 47    TH 51    EM 0
1088 km/s      Armour 1-15       Shields 0-0       HTK 12      Sensors 0/0/0/0      DCR 1      PPV 0
Maint Life 3. 45 Years     MSP 23    AFR 44%    IFR 0. 6%    1YR 3    5YR 44    Max Repair 20 MSP
Lieutenant Commander    Control Rating 1   BRG   
Intended Deployment Time: 3 months    Morale Check Required   

Hunter Marine Improved Nuclear Thermal Engine  EP25. 60 (2)    Power 51. 2    Fuel Use 9. 11%    Signature 25. 6    Explosion 4%
Fuel Capacity 500,000 Litres    Range 420 billion km (4467 days at full power)

This design is classed as a Military Vessel for maintenance purposes

Cheers in advance

Move another tanker on same location then issue the refuel from stationary tanker from the tanker out of fuel. To see it from the order list you need to flag the fleet option on the top. This also to order the refuel.

Can you only replenish a tanker then? It's a survey ship at want to replen.  that I didn't set high enough fuel % to move to refuel.

Yay! Got it.  Thanks very much, been batting my head against this for ages.

Love this game, but there's such a learning curve.
