Can't Transfer oil to new london from Dreadnought

[TYRRAN]

i have finished story mode on easy. i started a new game on captain difficulty and when i came to transfer 75 oil to new london, nothing happened. i have plenty of oil in dreadnought and when i'm transfering it to new london, nothing happens...

Never played captain but I'd double check if you have a stockpile in New London. Perhaps captain difficulty disables it.

i have stockpiles in new london and it shows that i've got oil transfered from the dreadnought on the transferering screen. but when i look in the fuel stockpiles, i've got only coal there. and i'm stuck on chapter 1 because of it...

If it's the 'send 75 oil to London' bit then:

You need to have oil production above 75 to be able to actually send over the 75 as a transfer rate. It can't be pulled from stockpiles (the UI seems to hate stock pile pulls in the transfer window).

It only has to be done for a tick, then you can reset it to keeping the dreadnought warm.

It's a weird limiter for the chapter change, becuase it's entirely plausible to find oil reserves out in the waste and have a 50k stock in the city while waiting for '75'.

aah thanks, i will try it. yeah because i have plenty of oil in new london so i was very confused about that.

blame the crappy ui fr not showing u ANY info

If you found oil, but the game is still telling you to find a source of fuel, you need to load a save before the cutscene where you found it and got the option to desecrate the corpses or to leave them alone.

The game seems to have a potential to not flip a boolean flag that is supposed to trigger after a cutscene. Happened to me more than once. :X

The UI tells you though

If the UI doesn't show the objectives then your game is bugged.
