Casus_Belli -> Fleets & fuel (5/7/2011 1:51:00 PM)

How does one tell how much fuel a particular fleet has? Or doesn't it work that way? I have a large fleet, sitting in a port with heaps of supplies (which I can't ditch, for some reason) and it doesn't seem to be able to move. It's near three lvl 3 oil wells. Yet some of my other fleets can move no problem, and there's plenty of oil showing white in the bar at the top of the screen. What's going on? Is there some way to give oil to that partiular fleet? To stockpile it there, even?

What's needed is systems for raw and oil that are siilar to the system for supplies, so you can have control over where they go.

You have no control of oil/raw distribution. You either have it or you don't in your global pool. I suspect your fleet can't move because of the heavy load of supplies though I've never encountered that situation. Did you manually transfer supply in to that fleet?

No I didn't. In AT it had a thing that told you what the max supplies were, but I haven't been able to find that yet. Be good to have something similar with fuel. Is the fleet fully fuelled? Who knows? It might just that it is a large fleet, but then how come it doesn't use all the fuel in white at the top of the screen? I would seriously like to have more information and control over fuel and raw materials, especially fuel.

Fantastic game, though, and a great impreovement over AT, which was also amazing.

What do you mean by the below statement? Is there an HQ loaded on a cargoship and the HQ has "heaps" of supplies in stock? If not, what unit has "heaps" of supplies on board? If you detached that particular unit from the rest of the fleet, can then fleet then move?
