  (This is the first couple of many planned 'modules' for semis and other land vehicles. These will be installed using Fleet Maintenance facilities (Where you will also maintain all land vehicles.), so take advantage of the early chance to have some produced for your future plans or to market to other players!

• Oil production officially turned on. No lines here. You just turn the facility on and start production, as long as it has adequate barrels it will run and produce the currently 5 bi-products. These products aren't yet for sale by NPC and the prices in the system are pretty baseline, so you may want to consider stockpiling, or you can sell for some float money while the new multi-fuel system gets coded in!

Research

However... logistics companies rejoice, you can now begin your research journies!

Right now, you can only tag things into groups. There are no other affects. I've put this in place for people who are planners to prepare for upcoming features including better tracking of where things are, management of gear, and of course, the much anticipated wonder worker program. After you've created a tag, you can assign it to a semi on the semi details page, and to a construction piece in the equipment details page.
