Mods that add vehicles with equipment do not handle quick-transfer correctly. This is not a mod issue.
If you open up a vehicle, and switch to the equipment tab, quick-transfer transfers the equipment items into the main inventory instead of the equipment inventory.
The same occurs for quick-transferring fuel.


The expected behavior is that when you open the equipment tab, quick-transfer should place items into the equipment grid similar to opening normal modular armor, and fuel should be placed into valid generator equipment.

Thanks for the report. I've fixed it so fast-transferring into the equipment grid always goes to the equipment grid and not the main inventory for the next version of 0.16.

The fuel logic i'm not sold on so I left it as it is now.

Uh, the fuel logic is kinda important. You can fast transfer into personal armor ehich lets you fill a large number of generators, but for a vehicle you have to fill them one at a time. Default to fillinf the vehicles fuel, then whichever inventory us open.

I don't understand what you're saying. What does "Default to fillinf the vehicles fuel, then whichever inventory us open." mean?

I think OP wants to transfer fuel into burner equipment grid items without opening them directly, i.e. filling any that can be filled while looking at the grid instead of the generator's inventory.

Exactly. Currently you can shift-click fuel to quicktransfer into your own armor, and it fills up burner generator type equipment.
However, this is not true of vehicle equipment.

Well, it is now.

So both changes are coming? Both quick transfer equipment to vehicle grids AND quick transfer of fuel?
