}}<section begin=summary/>Propellant tanks are the vessels used to store [[Propellant tank|propellant]], which [[Thrusters|thrusters]] use to produce force. They come in a variety of sizes, and are constructed of the propellant tank and two structural supports, which also provide socket access to the propellant tank itself. These support pieces also have one modular device interface per piece, and the propellant tank can also convey other resources if the tank is placed in-line with a [[Pipe networks|pipe network]].
* '''Note!''' Multiple propellant tanks will automatically balance the propellant in the network between tanks, and as such in-space refueling by taking out the propellant tank is not recommended. Rather a portable custom propellant tank item (resource bridge, hardpoint piped to one support frame, and a propellant tank) is often used to quickly refuel. <section end=summary/>

Summary



Starbase large gas container.png

Propellant is the fuel for spaceship thrusters.
Propellant is usually contained in large, medium or small gas canisters.
These canisters are often placed inside a space ship, and bolted down to secure them.

Basic information

Propellant tanks do not usually require regular maintenance.
They are placed in a ship, connected to the ship's thrusters with a pipe tool, and replaced when empty.
The small, medium, and large tanks hold 1.5, 5, and 12 million units of propellant respectively.
Full propellant tanks cost 48000, 160000, and 378000 credits respectively in Spaceship Designer.
