AFV Refuelling Platform [World]

Description
If you're after a more subtle way of replenishing the fuel tanks in your ground vehicles than cutting into the conveyor system and grafting on a pile of O2/H2 gens, then you sir are in luck! This also makes a good basis for a build world should you frequently encounter problems with premature fuel exhaustion in your tanks.

Note - (I've uploaded this as a world for now as it's far more convenient than trying to paste this in yourself and dealing with any subgrid fusing issues ect. but a blueprint version will come shortly. Also, keen fix your LODs plz ;-; )

The platform consists of a small robotic arm capable of a wide range of movement to accommodate any vehicle, and a moveable floor plate to allow for accurate positioning of the connectors.

TO USE:

This system is fully remote controlled - you don't even have to leave the vehicle!
Simply drive onto the platform and position the vehicle as close to the arm as possible.
Then use the controls outlined on the LCDs to move the refuelling arm as close to the 1x1 connector on the vehicle as possible. Once the connectors are locked, set the fuel tanks on your vehicle to 'stockpile = on'. Disconnect once full, set stockpile to off, and return the platform to it's original position to drive away.

World settings
The world is set to Creative, with the following mods:
Weaponcore
AWG WeaponCore Pack
AWG's Convenient Weapon Pack [CWP]
AWG Hand Weapons Pack (HWP)
InFlightButtons - Klime
RotorTurretAddon (aka ModMART)
