How to refuel, and which systems are actually published

Players who search for how to refuel a ship will not find that step on the store page. The listing names tools rather than services, and that is the whole of the published onboard detail.

The named tools are cranes for cargo handling, water cannons for firefighting, drones for scouting the sea and rescue equipment for distress responses.

No fuel gauge, port service, repair bay or maintenance menu appears in the official text, so the cheat sheet records a gap rather than a guess.

Jobs, cargo and the fleet

The published job list is cargo transport, rescue missions, firefighting, patrols and unexpected events. Cargo classes are bulk goods, containers and LNG, and the fleet runs from small boats to cargo ships and tankers.

Career progression is mission work, reputation and fleet investment, with reputation earned across harbours and factions. Vessels can be customised with names, colours, flags and logos.

Published job	What it involves
Cargo transport	Bulk goods, containers and LNG between ports
Rescue	Answering distress calls with the Tide Guard
Firefighting	Using water cannons on board
Patrol	Scouting with the drone

Achievements and languages

Forty-five achievements are listed for the app. The API publishes ten names as a highlighted subset, and they read like career milestones.

• Getting your Feet Wet!
• SEAL the Keel!
• On Course.
• Cargo Certified
• Cargo Handler
• First Responder
• Lifeguard
• Upgrade Ahoy!
• Take what you can, give nothing back!
• Freshly Shipped!

The remaining thirty-five have no machine-readable names in the API. Sixteen languages are supported, and only English and German are flagged for full audio.

How to use this sheet

Hold on to the platform line, the price snapshot and the player count. Those decide whether the game fits a machine, a budget and a group, and the crew figure is the single most distinctive number in the table.

If only one line matters, it is the memory figure: the recommended tier asks for 64 GB of RAM, which is far above the usual floor for a 2026 release.
