They don't work. Just delete them in the file and move on

I'm not sure but if you have direct sea water cooling / heat exchangers it can probably suck in the oil and thus "clean" it. Or if you pump water in ballast tanks while in oily water you get a mix or water and oil in the tanks (can be seen on fluid meter) so that probably cleans it as well. But sometimes it seems just hanging around/driving over the spill will clean it up. I just usually end up in a situation (when testing a wip boat) where half of the map is oil spills which really wrecks the framerate. Though it doesn't really matter since I can always start a new game. Too lazy to remove them manually. The spill system is a mess.

Doesn't seem to bother my framerate any. And yeah, after I posted, I quickly noticed that the spills vanished faster when I pumped in ballast. And came back when I pumped it back out.

Otherwise I deduce that they time out eventually, but the timer seems to stop if you're not near them.

And yeah, considering these "oil" spills happened when I pumped seawater out of the ballast of a NUCLEAR submarine that contained no oil of any kind, it's a mess.

Heh well it will slow down significantly when like at least 1/3 of the whole game world is filled with probably thousands (or tens of thousands) of oil spills overlapping so badly that the map is barely visible. I guess something was extra bugged that time.

It happened when I kept exploding my new ship on mines to test its survivability and it also has large open (when large custom doors are open) lower deck, contents of which (air) apparently turns into oil when it floods. I did sink it several times without reverting the world over multiple sessions and each time it leaked like 100000 liters of diesel which apparently turned into oil as well. The map view played at maybe 6 fps. In game view didn't slow that much I think but the map was barely usable. And my computer is fairly decent so that shouldn't be the reason. I guess rendering so many ui elements just slows things down badly. Couldn't really even see my ship on the map to reset it back to workbench.

But yeah the oil leak system is majorly bugged. Hopefully it will be fixed eventually as I like the idea but as is it just ruins everything.

Doesn't ruin it as bad as this damn... weird... ducted-fan ufo helicopter thing I just sank trying to land on a ship when the waves were too high. It has something weird going on, probably because it had an open window on top, no door, and was able to float with it back before the space update. It hasn't been updated in years. I made the mistake of dragging it back to my base with the ship I tried to land it on, but now whenever I get near it to try to attach a rope to it so I can helicopter it back to my airfield and try to push it back into the hangar with a truck, it tries to suck me into the cabin and won't let me near the rope anchors.

Before the update, I had a steam airship that could land in the water and was very functional as a ship (though at 20kts in the water, it wasn't fast.) It had grapplers on the bottom that could lift just about any damn thing, including the hospital boats, and airlift them anywhere.

It's not rigged for a condenser; it was made when desalinators worked. Steam lines and vents are everywhere. All it's good for now is making more freshwater "oil" spills, which it does whenever it's launched and promptly boils off all its water. I dunno how hard it would be to rework it and I'm scared to try.

Nothing is contained in the scene.xml file anymore, so it's probably in the Vehicles section of the directory for that save... which has hundreds of files for me to hunt through for it.

So... now how the hell do I get rid of this piece of sunken debris that refuses to let me attach stuff to it?

Yes it is but it should evaporate after a while unlike actual raw oil stuff. But in the game it turns into normal crude oil slicks like air does as well in flooded open areas.

Yeah, looks like everything turns into crude oil. And it's an exploit too, you can make endless cash just by pumping some water out, sucking it up, pumping it out, sucking in up...

I've had these spills pop up on my career world while I'm still pretty poor, can't find any ships to clean them up from the workshop. Considering restarting my world because this is just so utterly annoying. NPC ships will rescue people, but they won't clean up oil spills? Anybody know a cheap under 60k clean up vessel? I hope the only way to clean it isn't just sitting around in the oil.

Just disable oil spills when creating a world, Enabled Addons>Default Mission Locations>Oil Spill Missions. Haven't tried this yet, but this should turn it off.

If someone has problems and have too many Oil Spills i'd recommend to use this "Blessed by Heavens" Thing https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3015953112
