g can ships be refueled with inserters?

6 years ago

as title says, can ships be fueled automatically by inserters? and if so where do i place the inserters? i have tried multiple places but cant figure it out... i also tried long handed inserters with no luck

probably should have also mentioned i only tried with the tank ship as im trying to pump oil back to my base but want it to be 100% automated so the ship doesnt run out of fuel halfway there.

in the first image on this page you can see a blue inserter at the very bottom of the tank ship inserting coal into the "ship engine". Placing it like this should work. also the ships needs to be docked at a port for refueling to work, but since you want to automate the process i assume youre doing that anyway

ohh damn, the picture looks pretty low resolution so it was hard to tell at first, got it working now though thanks for the help :P
