| Whenever I request a fuel truck at ANY airport, the truck always comes right up to my plane and stops, or moves UBER slow. It doesnt fuel me, or even give me any indication of doing ANYTHING. This didnt always happen. Any suggestions? |

First thing to do is have a look in the cab of the truck to see if the guy's drinking on the job.  Sorry.
What did it do before it started doing nothing? |

It just drove up to me as usual and then suddenly started going really really really slow. |

I tried it on a default a/c, and everything was fine.
Tried it on a more complex a/c, and it did slow down. But it did fuel me.
Next time, hit control z , and see what happens with your FPS. You might be overloading your G-card.

I suggest you park precisely where Ground directs. Also that you close engines (not necessarily shut down), and I suggest you do not press Shift F repeatedly after the first tap. Whenever I get impatient and pummell away at the combination the fuel truck NEVER drives up. The operators probably get all confused about what I want and pull over somewhere for a quick cola.
Having said this, Im somehow of the view the entire refuelling thing is still imperfect.There are times Ive followed my own advice to the letter and still not been refuelled.Gives me a headache, particularly when there's no fuel box to taxi up to and manually help myself.  |
