jdkzombie Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I've dug over to 3 crude reservoirs, and a crude well, and placed the usual assortment of airflow tiles and my oil well, but my resource tracker always shows 0 for crude and petroleum. I got a jet suit dock waiting on 3 jet suits and all, but it keeps saying insufficient resources, when I have enough crude and fuel to drown every living thing on my current and past 2 maps. What gives? New map again time?

Nightinggale Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Crude Oil and petroleum are liquids. Dupes can't pick them up and carry them around. You need to use pumps and pipes to move them to where they are needed. Dupes can only carry solid objects. You can use pitcher pumps to bottle liquids but you usually only want to do that with clean water.

Sasza22 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Ok to have petroleum (or any liquid) on the material list it needs to be pickable by dupes. In other words it needs to be bottled so you need to build a pitcher pump to pick it up.

KittenIsAGeek Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Most things that require crude or petroleum have an input port for a liquid pipe. Like showers need water, the refinery needs pumped crude. The jetsuit dock needs piped petroleum. If you're unsure, check your plumbing overlay and see if there's an input port on the item in question.

You can`t pipe it to the exosuit forge and the recipie needs petroleum so it`s fully fueled when build.
