Pay facts

Topic	Value
Cash-equivalent job value	round(distance * 1.6 * unitPay + missingFuelPercent * 20)
VIP	VIP multiplies the final job value
Fuel type	Fuel type does not change the value
Resource modes	Resource and split modes use the same cash-equivalent value

The formula is an estimator. It is right to within about 1%, but it can be up to about $60 off. The displayed distance and station fuel percentage are rounded. A station at 30% has 70 missing percentage points.

The dispatcher's Driving distance is straight-line distance, not road length. The first delivery uses the refinery as its origin; later deliveries use the station just delivered to.

Rapid Transport restriction

If you leave the truck, teleport, and recover it, the current job is stopped as an attempted exploit. Re-enter the truck to start again.

Resource value comparison

Oil, Nitrous, and Chemicals use the same cash-equivalent job formula for matching distance, level, VIP status, and station fuel level. Resource mode converts that value into units, so unit counts and F7 resale results can differ.

Current loading and delivery flow

Use the local marker, choose the Flatbed, or start from the Employment Office. Press 1 for Oil, 2 for Nitrous, or 3 for Chemicals. The refinery loads the Flatbed automatically up to 200,000L.

Use F5 for the dispatcher. Double click a station to pin it. The panel shows station fields, supports search and pin controls, and can alert for stations below 30%. Red stations are unavailable. Press SPACE to unload at the destination.

Press N before loading or between deliveries to cycle Cash, Resources, and Cash and resources. After Rapid Transport, wait 1 minute before starting.

Dispatch and payment display

The F5 dispatcher lists 27 stations with names in the form <Region> - <Name> Fuel Station. Pinning one marks the route, so another press of N is not needed for directions.

In mixed cash and resource mode, resources are worth about the same as the cash half. Resource units are floor(cash half / resource F7 Average). The fraction of a unit is not paid, so resource value is at or slightly below the cash half.

The info board shows your level, progress in miles, Miles Driven, the current top Fuel Transporter, and earnings against the earn limit. After loading, it also shows the current payment type, the F5 dispatch prompt and the N payment change prompt.

When the Flatbed is loaded, the game also says Press 'F5' to view your dispatcher for deliveries. The key shown is your Fuel Dispatcher Key, F5 by default. Find it in /sbinds under Function Keys.
