Psyklik 10 Posted November 11, 2011 I have spent too much time looking for the whales in mission #3 and I am now low on fuel. Where are the refueling spots? Earlier on I spent fuel going back to the Heliport but was not able to refuel there, is this correct, no refuel at your Heliport? Thanks for the help:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b101_uk 10 Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) If you zoom in on the map at heli pads (ground) in the campaign you will see an icon in the shape of a fuel pump, the home Heliport has a fuel point as the heavy heli when parked on the pad furthest from the windsock if you get in it, it will refuel. edit: Actually scrub that, Not every pad has a fuel icon, but one or two do. The fuel at the home heliport is between the 2 pads (seaward side), it is red with a pipe reel next to it and a jerry can.

Psyklik 10 Posted November 12, 2011 Well I got the "Refueling" icon to start flashing, and the word Refueling is flashing, but nothing is actually happening. I let it run for 10 minutes or more and no fuel went in. Am I forced to refly the mission, since I cannot refuel?:confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b101_uk 10 Posted November 13, 2011 Odd, as I have refuelled from that pump, though I suppose in that mission they could set it as empty, also if you place that fuel pump in the mission editor you can refuel from it. When the green refuel icon (fuel can) is shown, you also get a mouse button context menu to refuel (same context menu as automatic engine start, auto hover, get out, etc to invoke it if doesn’t start automatically within the correct distance from the pump) May sound silly, but you are looking at the 3d cockpit fuel gauge? And not one of the others by mistake, as a full tank is well over >1.5 hours flight duration in game, or if you are going by the fuel lights on the 2d HUD/panel overlay the fuel light changes to yellow at <30% fuel (~33min of flight left) and to a red light at <10% fuel (~11mins of flight left).

Psyklik 10 Posted November 13, 2011 Thanks for the info, I was reading the gauge incorrectly :o, it did refuel but I ended up doing the mission over again successfully.:bounce3: Thank you for the help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
