Fuel Flow on planes


Recommended Posts

I have a SSTO that i'm making and its pulling fuel from all of the thanks. I want it to flow like in the picture below and keep to the rocket fuel tanks full.

You can't change how the Jets/RAPIERs drain fuel without editing config files, but you can control their fuel flow with parts that have (tweakable) fuel crossfeed, like decouplers and docking ports.

My preferred parts for use with spaceplanes are:

Small hardpoint.png
Small Hardpoint Radial mounted 60 0.05 2 000 20 600
Structural Pylon.png
Structural Pylon Radial mounted 125 0.2 2 000 70 2 500

You can offset them into the fuel tanks if you don't want them visible, disable their staging in their right click menu, and if needed put their crossfeed toggle in the same action group you use to switch the RAPIER mode.

It will approximate what you want, but it's not quite the same.
