B42 only!

• Use your Pipe Wrench to open the lid of the barrel
  
• Store any fluid inside
  
• The amount of liquid inside the barrel affects the encumbrance
  
• Rubber Hose to take Gas from barrel
  
• Funnel for pouring Gas into the barrel
  
• Funnel may speedup pouring action
  
• Refueling generator from the Barrel
  
• Refueling vehicle is also possible. also from mod's vehicles and trailers
  
• Randomized initial fluid and amount
  
• Sandbox vars to control mod behaviour as you want
  
• Chuckleberry Finn's Mod Update and Alert System integration for ingame ChangeLog

• Uses new FluidContainer system of B42
  
• Is safe to add in existing saves as well as removing, FuidContainer will remain.
  
• Barrels are now less fragile! But anyway Walkers will break it pretty quickly.
  
• Gasoline apparently does not evaporate from the barrels.
  
• Please! Any full 800L barrels in your characters pocket or car trunk is your responsibility, there is no proper way to haul them. For now at least.

Please verify that all necessary sandbox variables are enabled.
Then, find a Pipe Wrench and any metal barrel in the game (there are only four types available).
You can move your new Useful Barrel anywhere you like. It will be empty at first — even if you later discover 750 liters of fuel inside.
With the Pipe Wrench in your inventory, right-click on the barrel and look for the "Uncap ..." option.
This will allow the barrel to store fluids and run the initial fluid filling procedure (if enabled).
The generator must be within 2 tiles of the barrel.
The generator must be turned off and have free space for fuel.
There must be at least one barrel with at least 1 liter of fuel for the option to appear.
You must also have a Rubber Hose, if this is enabled in the sandbox settings.
The vehicle must be within 4 tiles of the player.
The vehicle's engine must be turned off.
The vehicle must have a part with the "gastank" category, and the part’s containerType must contain the word "Gasoline" (this info is mostly for modders).
The gas tank must have free space.
The nearest barrel with gas must be within 4 tiles of the vehicle.
You must also have a Rubber Hose, if this is enabled in the sandbox settings.

The mod now comes with two versions: stable branch that has v2.x.x and beta v3.x.x with vehicle integration.
All new features will be released in beta first. Once polished, they will be included in the stable version branch.

• Rework plumbing to make it work again properly
  
• Be able to add fluids from items laying on floor
  
• Add sprite and craftrecipe for rain collector

• Add posibility to move barrel with fluid

• Modded vehicles (and fluid trailers) should be compatible if: vehicle has part and part category contains "gastank", part contentType contains word "Gasoline".
  
• Mods that adds context options for FuidContainer may interfere UB. In that case try to re-order mods in Mod load order and move UB to bottom as possible.

• In case of game crash FuidContainer may not save it's contents.
