Oil Patches Count

Post by dog80 »

So when you have initially set up the oil patch and you want to go there again to place modules ... or even when you want to go there to setup pumpjacks it would be somehow helpfull to easily see how many oil patches there are. So you dont have to count them manually... nvm dx

-but fix walking through underground pipes at refineries first this is more annoying

on your first visit, put a label on the patch with the count of the oil sources... That way, not only do you not have to count it again, but you can see it from map view without having to re-visit the site (until necessary for placing pumps).

This falls squarely in the "very obvious thing I never knew I wanted until someone else suggested it" category.

+1 would love it.

Both the blueprint and deconstructor tool will reveal the total number of pumpjacks in an area. Both tools require radar vision to work and it won't count the oil spots.
