ahaha lol this turned into an aerodynamics topic :D
Lets go back to the topic which is 2 fuel tanks for trucks.

Fuel for most planes is in the wings.


Back on topic, only trucks should have their fuel capacity doubled. By trucks I mean these:

         'boat' => 4,
         'train' => 8,
         'trailer' => 16,
         'bicycle' => 32,
         'rc' => 64,
         'bike' => 128,
         'truck' => 256,
         'special' => 1024,
         'airplane' => 2048,
         'heli' => 4096

These are the categories for vehicles, I think truck and airplane should have at least 100% larger tank.

Just to ask, what those numbers mean?
Internal ninja stuff, to do with vehicles. (it's how server recognises trucks, boats etc)

wings doesnt have fuel tanks on them.... only the engines.
where do you think the engines get the fuel from?

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_are_the_fuel_tanks_stored_in_an_airplane
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_is_the_airplane's_fuel_tank

The main tank is into the plane and supplies them to the engines. Most of the fuel arent on the wings, other way it wouldnt fly :|

Sorry, I just wouldn't feel right if I didn't say this. I just thought I would bring my expertise into this...seeing as how I'm a pilot and aircraft mechanic. 95% of the planes out there store their fuel in the wings. Most wings are actually giant structural fuel tanks (some have a rubber bladder in them). The plane that my dad and I are building has wing tanks that take up half the wingspan (and are built into the wings)  :P

On topic, larger tanks would be awesome. I swear I have used more fuelcans than times I have filled up at the gas station. Maybe after 500 truck loads you get the option to buy "long range tanks" on trucks. And after 250 plane missions, you get to buy long range tanks for planes. And maybe even offer the ability to buy bigger tanks for all other vehicles (cars and motorcycles and things) after driving 25,000 km. Just a thought.

Lol you guys know 0 about planes

The only vehicles who need better fuel system are aircrafts, you cant fuel them mid air, and landing in roads are phroibed so you cant even use a can between airports, while trucks can do all that

This is the defenition of selfish, only thinking of trucks when there are vehicles way worse.

Go play on a pilot/plane server then. This is a trucking server, hence everything is based around/on trucking. Planes are just a secondary thing you can do.
Do you think a dodo can be fueled in mid air? I doubt that.
Landing on highways is being wreckless, if you know youre going to run out of fuel, find a field to land in, then use a fuelcan. Its not rocket science. If you dont have enough fuel to make it to the next airport, you shouldve budgeted better and refueled BEFORE YOU TOOK OFF.
Rubber knows way more than you, possibly anyone here (maybe except Jasonkarvx and Sveki), about aviation.

The fuel tanks for all the vehicles need to be longer, and more expensive. 30km/$100 for one tank? thats nothing.

Says the guy who ran out of fuel when doing tanker missions

You talk shit, boy.
