At any time, sneak-right-click with an empty hand to choose the next batch's mode. Release the button before choosing again.
Crude, petrol and diesel tanks each hold 100 L ◆
Finish the active batch, then drain all tanks. Empty tanks may still hide a batch. Inspect before moving; forced dismantling loses remaining liquids and heat.
◆ Default value; server operators can change it.
