    As said in discord by Hackerman, the current situation with fuel is a lot less than ideal. I propose instead of adding a whole item that is used like an ender chest for fuel, that you just add fuel as part of the ammo pouch and once you die, you drop the fuel in one stack. This will still allow people to get fuel off people but also prevent the people who would just stock up on fuel if you didn't drop it. If that isn't possible to just make fuel drop out of the ammo pouch on death, the alternative is being able to stack fuel up to high amounts. Instead of the regular 64 make it stack-able up to 999 or something.

    I like this idea it would be much easier to loot after getting a kill and tracking how much fuel you got.

    Ye, stacks of 200 should work pretty nice.

    1) Add fuel to ammo pouch: this would be confusing to players since ammo in the pouch doesn't drop on death
    2) Make fuel stack up to 999: this may be technically possible but very glitchy, not an ideal fix for this situation
    3) Add a new fuel item that allows you to fly 10-20 times longer per item than regular fuel. Would be called "Jet Fuel" for dank meme purposes.

    Wow, a peasant like I having presidentx respond to my thread, I think I can jump off my building now.
    Anyway, what you are saying (option #3) wouldn’t fix the problem. The problem is the fact that here is too much fuel on the ground causing people to not be able to get the katana and jp. Unless you removed normal fuel as a whole.

    I think it actually will be a good fix, since you need to buy 10 or 20 times less fuel.. So you have 2 stacks instead of 20.

    But that’s only if they remove the original fuel as a whole like I said.

    President said that he would “add a new fuel that would be 10 or 20 times stronger.” He didn’t say that we would change the value on the fuel, or remove it.

    That’s what I’m saying, the old fuel would have to be removed and be replaced with this new “jet fuel” which can either be a new item, or changed from the existing.

    We would "phase out" the old fuel since we can't just get rid of it. Remove it from the store, allow people to still use it but not buy it.

    Same things applies, it just doesn't use the fuel as fast.

    No that would be glitchy becaus fuel is technically used as bullets in that ase cause it goes by one each time u fire
