[img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//28842908/31cac87402a8f3aaa1d7017acdd78b4bd1646b72.png[/img] [b]Ocean Oil Spills[/b] The new oil spills system leaves a thick layer of oil on the ocean surface. This system is linked into Stormworks fluid system, so any oil that leaks from a vehicle will pollute the environment, and to clean up, the ocean must be pumped and filtered using the new oil-water separators. These oil slicks will spread with ocean currents over time, as well as slowly diffuse outwards across the surface of the ocean.

If not repaired quickly, damaged oil pipelines, or ships, can begin to leak oil, spilling huge quantities of oil into the ocean and creating huge environmental clean-up tasks. The oil pollution runs on it's own mission system, similar to the forest fire system. Any oil spills will create new pollution clean-up tasks.
