Anyone like me who wants the contraptions ... erm, time-consuming creations ... to be as realistic as possible may have considered the idea of building a fuselage out of struts and inserting a fuel tank. This then takes away the ability to click on a fuel tank and transfer fuel from one tank to another and one craft to another.

I'm suggesting an update that will allow for a vizzy instruction that looks similar to : -

Transfer fuel from [PartID] to [PartID]. The part IDs must be the same fuel.

Of course, any parts containing the same fuel connected to those parts, as in a group of fuel tanks that make up one tank thereby giving it a domed shape near the stem, would be included in the transfer statement.

This would allow the players to service satellites, etc and may even encourage it. Take the Hubble telescope, for instance, had to have a battery pack changed. Or a satellite that's running low on monopropellant.

If this already exists for PC users, apologies. I play on cellphone due to my job and don't have this option.

    Just found out this existed already even though I did check prior to making this suggestion. Please refer to this link instead. Thanks.
