There are several ways to refuel your ships through the Task groups windows (F12)

Refuel from a colony

  • on the Task Groups Orders tab, select the colony (System Locations Available pane)
  • select the Refuel from Colony order (Actions Available pane).

Make sure the colony has available fuel in its stockpiles.

  • in the System Location Display Options panel, check the Task Groups box
  • in the System Locations Available panel, select the Task Group owning the tankers you want to use
  • in the Actiobns Available panel, select 'Refuel from Target Fleet'.
