In-game description

The RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker is the Colonial Fuel Tanker. It is a logistical vehicle specially designed to transport large quantities of liquids (such as fuel) and refuel nearby vehicles and structures.

General Info

Crew

The RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker holds one passenger, and houses a crew of one soldier:

  • Driver (Seat 1)
    • Controls the movement of the vehicle, and can see the remaining fuel in the vehicle
    • Interacts with nearby structures - press E or Shift + E
    • Activates horn sound - press LMB
  • Passenger (Seat 2)
    • A seat used to hold/transport players
    • Has no tactical function
    • Due to being in an enclosed vehicle, they cannot use their secondary equipment

Armament

The RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker is not equipped with a main armament.

Inventory

Its inventory has 1 multi item slot that can hold 35 of one type of liquid resource (Diesel, Petrol, Oil, Heavy Oil, Enriched Oil, or Water).

Interactions

The Dunne Fuelrunner 2d can be interacted with in a few ways:

  • Refuels nearby structures and vehicles - only applies to nearby entities (depending whether they have the correct fuel)
    • The structure/vehicle that wants to be refuel must click the refuel button - able to be canceled with another button
    • Visually shows refueling with a hose connecting them - will stop refueling if they are too far away
  • The driver can access the inventory and stockpile of nearby structures
    • Pulls items from stockpiles twice as fast compared to on foot
    • Can pull three times the normal amount - press Shift + LMB

Storage & Transport

The RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker can be stored in a Storage Depot, Seaport or Storage Ship.
It can be packaged into a large Shippable and transported only by certain Shipping Vehicles (Barge, Freighter, Flatbed Car, Storage Ship). It can be lifted by any crane but only a Large Crane can undeploy and move while holding it.
The Crates of RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker produced by Mass Production Factories can be packaged and transported by any Shipping Vehicle then submitted to a Storage Depot or Seaport to be stored and unpacked.

Tactics

The RR-3 “Stolon” Tanker is an essential vehicle for Foxhole logistics as it's the few vehicles that can efficiently transport liquids from one point to another. While there are other structures and vehicles that can do this (and at a much higher capacity), it is far easier to move to locations and requires less infrastructure to do so.

Like all structures and vehicles that can refuel, it will keep track of how many liters was extracted from it (i.e. if there was 500L inside, and only 37L was extracted, it now has 463L stored inside). Although it has an internal counter, it is not visibly shown when looking in its inventory/stockpile.

Early-game Facility Logistics
Prior to Tier 2 Facilities unlocking (which includes pipes), Fuel Tankers are extremely useful for supplying liquids to facilities that need them, like the Diesel Power Plant. Using them also cuts down on unnecessary building, which increases msupp consumption. Depending on how long Tier 2 Facilities takes to unlock (which can take between 6-7 days to unlock), not building unnecessary things will reduce burnout of players maintaining them at the start of each war.

Trivia

  • Prior to their rework in Update 1.50 ('Inferno'), Fuel Tankers were the only mobile structure/vehicle in the game that could transport fuel. This was later changed with the introduction of the Liquid Container, which resulted in Fuel Tankers being nerfed.
    • It had 2 inventory slots, which could stack up to 100 per slot (giving it an effective carrying capacity of 20,000L).
