Small tank, tank duo, and 4 tank farm (4 tanks, 1 building)

In 1 collection by Comrade Sky
Oil Industry -- Most Useful Assets
11 items
Description
One small tank with 120 tons of storage space, one 2 x 120 tank farm, and one 4 x 120 ton tank farm, so you can store different liquids in the same building.

When connected to a production facility, the tanks fill in order (so one tank will fill before starting the next), but the pump and vehicles put it evenly in all tanks. You should use the “[ ] store this item” option boxes if you want to make sure the tanks don't switch if emptied or when you start filling.

The farm costs a little more than the large storage tank of the base game because there are 4 small tanks that lack scale, and lots of pipes connecting them. The advantage is convenience rather than cost. It also has only one loading station, so you may need to add a loading/unloading station if you use multiple trucks.

The farm is especially convenient for storing liquid for local use, so you might have 240t fuel, 120t bitumen, and 120t oil so you can supply local industry and vehicles.

I also created a medium tank version. Please see the collection to install the medium tanks.

@Ricky Bobby - I had a similar situation with a distro office refusing to pick up from a different multi tank mod. I could pick up with an individual truck on a route, it was only the distro that was not working as expected.
Adding a cargo station to pick things up from solved my problem, and it may help you? Apparently the distro offices don't recognise these multitanks as holding different liquids, but the cargo stations are set up to have different inputs so it works fine.

The two-tank version seems to have a problem when pumping liquid into trucks. Only the liquid listed in the bottom menu can be pumped. E.g., when storing fuel in the top tank and bitumen in the bottom, one can only directly load bitumen at the tank. In that case, fuel has to be loaded via a extra loading station connected with pipes. Maybe this is something that can be fixed, as it's a rather unexpected behavior.

I enjoy this mod and use it often. But I noticed something odd in my current game, the texture seems transparent. I'm using the single tank, and I can see right through it. Is it something odd at my end or did the textures get altered?

Hello,
I have to say that the tank farm with the ability to have different liquids in each tank is one of the best storage mods that I use.
Now I was wondering if it is possible to do something like that with an aggregate storage, to have 2, 4, 8 chamber storage for aggregate so you can say have one large store to hold a number of aggregate types?
Small maybe 2 max
Large maybe 4 max
It might not be possible but as you managed witchcraft to make these tanks I thought I would ask?
Oh if you manage this witchcraft any chance the convayer ports can be in useful places unlike the original buildings?
If its not possible no problem, still love these tanks though.

The pack now includes a duo farm, and you can find a medium tank farm in the collection.
