PETROL (now with helicopters)

WELCOME to PETROL!
It's BIGGER! It's BADDER! It's TOO MUCH FOR YOU TO HANDLE!

Hydrogen is for rockets. Petrol is for internal combustion!

BLOCKLIST:
Coal Power Plant: Burns raw coal. Stable and easy power.
Oil Refinery: Turns Oil Shale into PETROL!
Petrol engine: Rebuild of internal combustion. Uses PETROL to make power.
Various Fuel Tanks. To hold the precious PETROL.
FUEL CELLS A Fuel Cell is excellent in supplying supplemental power to a hydrogen rocket powered ship. AND of course, emergency power, when nothing else seems to work.

NOW! Named to honor Native Americans AND the USA Armed Forces!

Cherokee Blades! Small, quiet, good for scouting ELECTRIC. Electric motor
in back provides power to the gearbox under the blades.
Apache Blades! Good solid lift. Now we’re cooking with gas! Turbine powers
the gearbox and the blades.
Comanche Blades! Major power. Damage resistant. Good for a fight! Twin Turbines
provide power to the central gearbox and drives the huge blades!

This is Helicopters like I always knew they should be! BIG hit boxes make them unsuitable for mining or close quarters flight. Keep those blades clear of obstacles. Also likely the first thing to take damage in a fight, so pay attention. Advantage of blades over vanilla atmospherics: Cherokee has less electrical use for lift generated. Apache and Comanche generate generous lift without going crazy with batteries. The PETROL moves you. DISADVANTAGE: They require room to operate. Easy to hit by an enemy.

Connecters for most are typically underneath.

New Ores: Coal & Oil Shale. Both now spawn on Earth-like and Alien

Why use PETROL? 1. Realism. 2. Hydrogen Tanks are crazy big. PETROL is a more compact and easy to carry fuel.

There will be much tweaking and adjusting to come, but the mod works as is. PLEASE give me feedback on how this plays in survival. I am doing so myself, but I need to know how this plays for OTHER people.

Enjoy!

There are abandoned outposts you can claim, IF you can find them.
no platinum on earth or alien.
