(Additional Fuel Rods in the tank or inventory will still generate radiation however.)Ī gallery of wheeled vehicles. This means radioactive fuels such as the Uranium Fuel Rod or the Plutonium Fuel Rod will only make a vehicle radioactive while sitting in the tank, once consumed and added to the Acceleration Time the radiation it produced will cease. The type of fuel being consumed is not recorded, only the burn time is added. When a vehicle has no Acceleration Time left and tries to move it will pull one item from its fuel tank and adds its value to the Acceleration Time.

This countdown does not occur while a vehicle is stationary or "coasting" down a slope.

Alternatively, you can edit the pause node to any desired length in seconds.Īcceleration time is a timer counting down whenever the vehicle is accelerating or otherwise trying to move. Vehicles do not stop recording if the pioneer dismounts, so the player can get out and watch the bottleneck station fill or empty and then resume driving. This pause should not be inside a station, as this will cause the station to consume power.

If running at full speed all the time is wasteful (such as if the vehicle's throughput far exceeds that of the source or sink), the vehicle's path can be "underclocked" by including a lengthy pause, during which it will use no fuel. Where the fuel consumption rate is 55MW for the Tractor, 75MW for the Truck, 90MW for the Explorer and 150MW for the Cyber Wagon. Below is a table of how long, in seconds, each fuel type lasts at maximum acceleration. The Tractor consumes the least fuel, followed by the Truck, then the Explorer, and finally the Cyber Wagon which consumes the most. Fuel is input into a fuel slot by accessing the vehicle's inventory, which is usually a red box in the rear of the vehicle.ĭifferent fuels are consumed at different rates, based on the item's fuel value and the vehicle's energy consumption rate. Motor vehicles (excluding the Factory Cart) require fuel to operate, and can use every kind of fuel item.
