Hooray! Finally!
This mod allows you to refuel whilst in the air. There are AI controlled tankers that spawn in sandbox (if you don't want them to, get HellFireKoder's Mod Settings Mod and disable them). There is also a mission where you have to refuel.
Parts
There are 3 parts included:
- A drogue, complete with holder and rope. This goes on the tanker.
- A probe (this is just the end bit for if you want to make your own probe)
- An animated retractable probe. This is fancy and retracts on an activation group.
Tankers
There are 3 tankers included:
- The normal one (named "Tanker"): This is a modified version of the bomber from the escort mission. I had to put a lot more fuel in it and upgrade the engines. This is the one that you must refuel from in the mission.
- The rubbish C-130 replica by me (named "Tanker (by WNP78)"). Pretty self-descriptive. Flies at lower altitude and speed and can only be found in sandbox mode.
- The other one, made by LiquidFox (named "Tanker (by LiquidFox)"). A few minor edits were made but it is pretty much this plane. This is the one in the screenshots.
Known Bugs
Yes, there is a bug that I just couldn't squish in time for the release. For some reason, the colouring on the parts included is messed up. They show a very faint version of the first colour in the pallet. Please do not report this bug, you'll just have to live with it for now.
Credits
- BRuthless - testing, suggestions and screenshots (you think that's my flying??)
- HellFireKoder - not sure really. He probably helped me at some point or another.
Oh, and one last thing:
It's really hard!
is it possible to have a list of all the tankers that appear in this mod for people to download?
Please, I downloaded the materials and did not find the plane that refuels, so how do I activate the mod?
@WNP78 post the tanker plane as a standalone build, with the new parts of course
@Airplanengineering the mod's features have been implemented in the base game on all platforms for years now
Can you make for mobile
Please
Would it be nice to have Ground Fuel?
When the mod is so good they added it into the game:
@Emirates380 does this work for you? What version of the game does it run on?
@WNP78 You should mention it’s in the game now
oh s//t the tanker. i feel bad😂
@Refuel I feel sorry for you
There is already VR update which has tankers
Obsolete mod
Link
玩这个模组有点非常卡。
@IceCraftGaming sorry dude I didn't check he update out
we have an update that already has it making this mod obsolete
@SlowedOcra85028 why would they?
@IceCraftGaming I'm not saying it's not old but it's a great mod definitely not obsolete people still use it
@SlowedOcra85028 he has a point doe
refueln't
@Ruskiwaffle1991 NOPE this mod is VERY helpful and slight lag
Now that the thing is in the game itself and not as an attachable mod, i can safely say that they both have some connections made.
Lol obsolete mod
can you at least please tell the speed and altitude of the tanker
