Diesel

Diesel is a fluid often used as a great source of power generation at the early-game. Especially by the fact it isn't hard to produce, also being much better than many other fluids you can have at the early-mid-game stage.


Diesel is a flammable, combustible, and polluting liquid, providing 550.0 kTU and 1.37 MHE per bucket.

Misc. Uses

  • Diesel can be used for a weapon called "Mister Topaz", which is a flamethrower. It requires diesel tanks, which are made in the crafting table as the following recipe:
Crafting Table
Steel Plate
Steel Bolt
Universal Fluid Tank: Diesel
Steel Bolt
Steel Plate
Diesel Tank
  • (Each tank counts as 100 ammo in Mister Topaz).
  • Another weapon it can be used on, is the Chainsaw, holding up to 5000mB of many other fluids which you can find out in-game about, including, diesel.
  • A infamous use for diesel is for an armor called the diesel-powered armor set. Each piece of the diesel-powered armor can hold up to 64000mB of the fluid. The armor only consumes the diesel if the player takes damage, meaning it does not passively consume the energy like other armors such as the T-51b power armor.
  • And lastly, it is used as main fuel in the diesel generator, alongside other fuels which can also be used providing different number of energy depending on their fuel grades. Diesel has a high fuel grade, therefore, the player can get 75% fuel efficiency in the generator.
