" • Refuel" and

" • Defuel" appear If these entries are clicked, the loading or unloading tank operation starts and the

menu entry gets a √. In the middle of the screen, a rectangle appears with "Refueling" or "Defuelling!" and a bar indicating the filling level of the tank. If the tanks are full, the refueled automatically terminates. The de-fueling is completed. when the tanks are empty. If you click the menu item again, each operation is terminated.

• "toggle_refuel" and

• "toggle_defuel" in the area "FUEL".

With the keys defined here you can start and stop the re-fueling or de-fueling.
