BD Oil - Fully Automated Oil Rig and Refinery 4.0

Description
BD Oil 4.0


This is a fully Automated Drill and Refinery that requires only one button press to get oil..

Currently in Alpha and subject to change.

*Heavy Logic smoothly loads, drills and refines oil automatically.
*Logic helps prevent some bugs and issues
*Consistent results
*No Manual Labour Needed At All
*No Complicated Multi button panels.
*One Press Automation
*Full Loading and Offloading
*Full Slurry System
*Full Refinement of Oil
*Helipad
*Basic Elevator
*Completely Custom Logic
*Animated Screens
*Bedroom
*Supplies
* CAPABLE OF HANDLING NEW WELLS OR PARTLY DUG WELLS.
* Full Oil Tank takes under an hour and is worth around $500,000

IMPORTANT: You must run on High physics during drilling, Low breaks connectors, Medium can cause Loading Issues.
Once you start pumping you can set as desired.
Built For Single player ONLY...

Notes: There IS currently a bug/feature where you have infinite power on the mining site, and other static sites, hence why there's no generator.

Dig Deeper Button Shuts off pumping and continues drilling, remember to turn it off again at desired level or before.

Bugs:

As Noted by others, if you dropped a rod down the well using your own creation or someone else's and you didn't save game before hand, don't expect this to work because you broke that save file.
(possibly patched)

Remember to Save Before attempting to Drill. If on the rare occasion there is a failure, either reload or respawn the rig.
Looking at Logic may cause Brain injury.

This took a veeerrry long time to build and test - Please remember to Like and all that stuff..

Enjoy

2.0 Manual Mode Update

  • Added Manual Mode
  • Added Override Switches
  • Added Choice of Which Fuel Types To Process

To Let Go Of Rod For Re spawning Press The Swivel Override And Safety Clamp Buttons

To Reset Auto Drill After Using Manual, Turn On Swivel Clamp And Swivel Down, Drill Current Rod As Far As Possible, Turn On Auto Drill, Turn Off Drill Clamp, Turn Off Swivel Clamp and Swivel Down, Swivel will move back to Top Then continue with Auto Drilling

There Are a Lot of Nuances with Manual Mode and Various Situations you could find yourself In, I cant write instructions for them all so recommend Messing with it until your confident you know what your doing

IMPORTANT: If Rig Is Stuck Thinking, Its Because Its Waiting For You To Clear The Current Rod, Switch To Manual And Turn On Swivel Down, Swivel Clamp and Drill Until Rod Is Clear

Rig now has an Insane Amount of Logic, Its hurting my Brain

Update: Fixed Camera Static
Isolated Motor To its own battery array (fixed battery drain)
Removed Generator as it should no longer be needed
Finished :)

Update 3.0

- Triple Hose Output for faster pumping, just connect hoses and press the appropriate button on the drop down station.
Added input for diesel and water behind the tanks.
Added water and Oil Outputs.
Labelled Some buttons.

Update 4.0

Space and Pressure Update

So it turns out that the pressure update caused some serious issues with regards to heating oil.
Heating now requires a certain amount of pressure to work and pumps are very weak when pumping from a low pressure system.
This is all fine if you are trying to heat something like water from a spawner as its already spawned under pressure.
However when working with oil, things get complicated.

I've completely redesigned the entire Refinery.
There are now 3 compartments for the refinery, each will fill then heat, then fill the next compartment.
Heating takes a few minutes to start and takes several minutes to reach max speed to the point it will refine quicker than oil is pumped. So be patient!!

As always i've tested many times without failures so if you have a failure it is likely you dont have high physics enabled or your pc is too slow to handle the tps required.

This took a lot of research and testing to fix so please press the like button!


Hotfix 4.1

Improved Save and Load functionality.
Rig no longer breaks after save/load if drilling and remembers current job.
Refinery now saves status.

Thanks to Subs and Kind Comments, Enjoy

Will you upgrade the oil rig now that there is mod support and bigger workbenches? I asked a while back about adding more rods and I hope it is possible now.

Pop`s - Thank you for the kind words, means a lot. Glad you enjoy it :)

I subbed almost the day it was put on the workshop. the only issue ive had is when Stormworks are having problems. Its my go to rig, walk into the control room, press the screen, go off doing other designs and missions, pop back set the ovens off, then ive got fuel for all my needs, it works great on other land oil points and ive never had problems in med physics. When im in game mode its a must for me, I do as many cargo runs as quick as I can to get the money together to get the Rig up and running. Amazing creation Benthedaddy ;) Thanks.......

oh thanks, it just started pumping at 90 meters
Benthedaddy  [author] 11 Nov, 2024 @ 8:11am 
l0gunat0r - Oil is anywhere from 50m - 120m deep. It can take longer than 15 minutes. That's just how the devs made it
