Details for nerds about installition:
The helper root script is a nesseesary component to be in the contents of the truck, as it manages the truck's default fuel operation, and forwards GFS API messages, ensuring you are able to refuel your aux fuel tank as needed!

***How to use the Refuel Addon***
*******************************

Stop the engine of your truck before any operation

Click the tiny gas cap on the addon to open the gas cap, this will disable the truck's own refuel capability, allowing the addon to recieve fuel instead, refuel your truck as normal, it'll refuel the addon instead
Replace the gas cap by clicking on the same spot you did to remove it

There is a guage above the gas cap you can read how much fuel is in the addon
The maximum fuel is 3000 Liters

You can put either Diesel or Gasoline in the tank, it'll smartly recognise and use the fuel you put in

To swap Diesel to Gasoline or vice versa, you have to empty the tank out first! (or reset the script)

Click the fuel nozzle to get a dialog of nearby scripted objects
Select the object you want to attempt to refuel with the PREV and NEXT buttons, click SELECT to refuel the object!

You can click SELF to refuel the truck itself

While fueling you can click the nozzle that is in the vehicle you are fueling, to pause the flow of fuel

Filling up 3000 liters will take a while with the standard GFS pumps, stay tuned for future gas pump releases

*** Customisation ***
*******************

The addon ties in with the truck's menu system
Click the truck, pick customise, and pick rear addon

Here you can set a preset paint for the Flatbed Addon, theres a matching color for each included Lusch Hermes paint!
You can also make your own livery and insert the uuid with the custom paint option!

I was a bit worried about the instructions, but the Hermes has a built in system for prepared addons like this. Follow the instructions and the thing will glue itself together and adjust all the parts into the correct locations and alignments.
+3 Stars because it works as intended and easy to install
+1 Stars because it's modifiable
+1 Stars because it functions across multiple sim crossings

Great add on

I looked to be able to go to to refinery to bring for refuel my AT gaspump, or even other stations, and i saw that add on. I bought the HGermes 2 minutes before buy that add on and i directly installed it, then i did many try. It works perfect.
I was worried before buy, because nothing in the description and pictures say it was possible to refuel stations, with the big pipe, and on the pictures it isnt there too. But i asked the creator and answered to me that it was added in a upgrade, and the pics was older than that.

I like this because it actually transports liquid loads and has it's own ntbi fuel system. I service gas stations from my refinery with this. You can adjust the drive script in it as well
Big thumbs up from a RL trucker!
