The '''Fuel Transfer Limpet Controller''' is a type of [[Limpet Controller]] module that can program limpets to transfer quantities of fuel from a [[Ships|ship's]] [[Fuel Tank]] to the Fuel Tank of a targeted ship. This is most useful in refueling ships that do not have a [[Fuel Scoop]] installed or lack sufficient fuel to jump to scoopable star. | |||
==Usage== | ==Usage== | ||
Fuel | Fuel Transfer Limpets allow pilots to exchange fuel between themselves in situations where access to refueling is limited or nonexistent. The most common application is in the [[Roles#Support|Support role]] made famous by the [[Fuel Rats]], in which one pilot provides aid to another in need to prevent the loss of their ship. | ||
In [[Wing]]s, one member can be designated as a dedicated fuel carrier and fly a large ship with multiple reserve Fuel Tanks. The fuel carrier can keep the other members fueled and thus allow them to specialize for [[combat]] or other roles without setting aside internal compartments for a Fuel Scoop or reserve Fuel Tank themselves. This can extend the Wing's effective travel range and the activity time. | In [[Wing]]s, one member can be designated as a dedicated fuel carrier and fly a large ship with multiple reserve Fuel Tanks.
