In-game description

The Liquid Transfer Station (abbreviated as LTS) is a player-built facility structure designed to store large quantities of liquid resources in its stockpile.

Construction

The Liquid Transfer Station must be built on Foundations with a Construction Vehicle and costs 35 Construction Materials. Friendly Liquid Transfer Stations are always visible on the map with a unique icon FuelTransferStationMapIcon.png.

Modifications

Pipelines can be connected to its inlet and outlet to automatically transfer liquids.

Demolition

The original builder, and squad members if reserved, can instantly demolish it BtDemolish.png if it was built less than 28 days ago. The materials used in the construction are refunded and dropped under the player.

Reservation

The original builder can reserve it for a Squad BtReserve.png for 52 hours in the menu to prevent non-members from modifying it, however the stockpile access is not restricted. The reservation can be refreshed BtRefreshBunker.png by any squad member. If the reservation expires, the structure can never be reserved again.

Destruction

It is immune to Friendly Fire but it can be flagged for "Disruptive Structure Placement" BtRemove.png to remove the immunity (10 "votes" needed).

Reconstruction

When destroyed, it leaves behind a Husk that can be destroyed or rebuilt. Reconstruction uses the same tool and materials as the construction. Rebuilding a husk restores the stockpile if it was friendly owned, and only 25% of the stockpile if enemy.

Use

Its interface can be accessed by pressing E when on foot or driving a logistics vehicle.

Storage

Its stockpile only accepts liquid resources. It can hold up to 500 items but they must all be of the same type. Retrieving from the stockpile is extremely fast (x10).

There are four lightbulbs on one of the drum that light up depending on how full the stockpile is: all off = empty, one = 1-25% full, two = 25-50%, three = 50-75%; four = 75-100%.

In the interface you can view the Stockpile Actions Log BtLog.png to check what was added and retrieved from the stockpile.

You can check the content of a Transfer Station stockpile remotely by putting your cursor on its icon on the map.

Loading Area

You can place a Liquid Container on the loading area with a crane to directly transfer items in or out.

Pipelines

It has one inlet and one outlet to connect Pipelines to it to automatically transfer liquid resources in or out of the stockpile. Two painted arrows above each attachment point indicate which is the inlet and outlet. The inlet is on the tank closest to the loading area.

The pipelines can be used so the Liquid Transfer Station automatically refuels various nearby facilities that require liquids for their production.

Trivia

  • When the Liquid Transfer Station was introduced in 1.50 Inferno, it used the basic facility map icon. This was changed in Update 1.52, when it was given its own map icon.
    • Along with the change, the contents of the Liquid Transfer Station could be seen from the map, as long as the Resource Transfer Station is not squadlocked.
