Oil Tanker by Uncle T

1,432 bricks.

A simple, rather small oil tanker, nothing fancy. To keep the brick count down the interior is very sparesly decorated but some beds and seats, including the officer's, can be used.

I'm going to make an armed version too for use with my Floating Base - Armed Offshore Platform.

CONTROLS Captain's/Driver's seat W/S: Variable throttle. Reverse gear might need help by manually shifting. K / Hazard Lights: Engine boost. Good for getting going since acceleration can be painfully slow and for maintining speed when turning sharply. * A/D: Steering/Rudder. I made it accumulated since it often takes a while to turn ships around, so you must centre the steering wheel manually. The golden knob straight up = centered. L / Headlights: Navigation lights. H / Horn. Foghorn. Radar antennas operated with tagged button near the captain's seat. All doors and hacthes opened with buttons/switches on them.

• Since speed in water is a bit of a randomised mess, and it's also more fun to play with a faster ship TBH, the top speed is way too high, especially if using the boost too, for a ship like this but this might be needed at lower FPS and in MP games since water vessels seem to lose a RIDICULOUS AMOUNT of speed when FPS goes under 60 due to the totally broken physics engine. Try to keep the speed under 50 kph at least to avoid leaning issues when turning.
