🛠️ Auto Transfer Line System Has Arrived! – v0.8.0

Hey everyone! 👋 With today’s update, a brand-new system is now active to help automate your fuel operations:

➡️ Auto Transfer Lines!

🛢️ What is this system? From now on, you’ll be able to use a special transfer line in each Drill Zone to deliver crude oil directly to your Central Underground Tank without having to transport it manually!

Each zone has been equipped with a dedicated valve. When opened, any fuel stored in hose-based pumpjack systems is automatically transferred via pipeline to the center.

⚙️ How does it work? • First, the system must be purchased via the tablet. • Then, you can interact with the valve in the zone or toggle its status through the app. • Only hose-based pumpjacks are supported – barrel-based systems are not compatible. • To activate the system, you must also own the Central Crude Oil Underground Tank.

💰 Pricing Since Auto Transfer Lines greatly boost speed and automation, the price is balanced to reflect its value. It may be a significant investment at first, but the time-saving and efficiency it provides will pay off in the long run!

Thanks again for all your support. We hope this feature makes your fuel empire even smoother to run! 🚀 See you in the next update! ❤️

🚛 New Truck and Tanker

• A new Semi-Truck has been added to the game. A new vehicle option is now available for players looking to expand their fleet.
• A new Crude Oil Tanker is now available. Having two crude oil tankers will make operations easier.

🎨 Personalization: Wall Paint System

• You can now customize your warehouse walls! With the Wall Paint app, you can apply any graffiti to a total of 8 exterior wall sections.
• Wall ordering: Sections 1–4 cover the right wall from front to back, and 5–8 cover the left wall from front to back.
• Graffiti selection and editing: Once purchased, you can freely change your wall designs anytime. All graffiti is managed through the Wall Paint app.

🔧 Vehicle System Improvements

• Vehicle positions are now saved. When you exit the game, all vehicles will be restored to their exact position and rotation.
• A new “Reset Vehicle” button has been added. If your vehicle gets stuck or becomes unusable, you can safely teleport it back to its starting position with this button.

⚙️ New Setting: Camera Behavior

• A Camera Auto-Center toggle has been added to the settings. Players who prefer to manually control the camera can now disable automatic alignment from the settings menu.

Enjoy the game and have fun! 💙
