Hi everyone

 

I'm somewhat new to dayz, I've gotten the basics of survival and so on in the wild. However, I've recently found my first working Huey and ATV, today I even found a speed boat (I think they're called Ribs). 

I've grouped them together, using the ATV as a base for supplies, the chopper for search and rescue of fellow bambi's and the rib for finding equipment.

The huge problem I'm facing is refueling all of these. I've got a 20L jerrycan that's full (if it were empty there'd be a red cross through it, much like water canteens). I've tried going up to all 3 and scrolling through the menu that comes up, there's no refuel option! 

I can refuel the ATV if i find a petrol station, can I also do this for the Huey? How can i refuel the boat too? :S

you must refuel the jerry can. it will take 50+ jerry cans to fill that chopper iirc.

 

the jerry can can be refuled at the large rusty fuel tanks often found behind gas stations and some barns.

I think this may be a bug and I'm not sure how to fix it. But to make your life easier when you do fix it, instead of spending an hour refueling your heli with jerry cans, land your heli near or on top of a gas station to refuel it in just a few seconds.

or find a fuel barrel which hold 210 litres instead of a 20 litre jerry can.

Thanks! I shall try both asap, any suggestions with re-fueling my boat?

 

Also, I parked my ATV up on a hill, sideways so it was parallel with its crest to my right, come back an hour or so later, to find it seems to have slipped between two trees. Any attempts to access it see me re-equipping my weapon! What gives?
