	The [[Portable Gas Tank]] can be connected/disconnected to pipe networks using a [[Tank Connector]], by placing the tank on the connector and then interacting with it using a [[Wrench]]. It can also be connected (and disconnected) to the [[Rover]] and [[Lander]], with one [[Portable Gas Tank]] of Oxygen normally spawning on the lander.		The [[Portable Gas Tank]] can be connected/disconnected to pipe networks using a [[Tank Connector]], by placing the tank on the connector and then interacting with it using a [[Wrench]]. It can also be connected (and disconnected) to the [[Rover]] and [[Lander]], with one [[Portable Gas Tank]] of Oxygen normally spawning on the lander.

	The front of the tank features a striped area where a Gas [[Canister]] or [[Gas Canister (Smart)]] can be inserted for refilling (equalizing the pressure in both canisters), ~~unless~~ the tank ~~is connected~~ to ~~anything~~ (the ~~insert will~~ not even ~~light up)~~. There is also a pressure regulator valve on the top of the tank that can be used to vent the tank to atmosphere (or into a sealed room). Note that this valve does not need to be opened when connected to a Tank Connector, but the setting of the valve remains persistent between connection and disconnection.		The front of the tank features a striped area where a Gas [[Canister]] or [[Gas Canister (Smart)]] can be inserted for refilling (equalizing the pressure in both canisters), Ices can be inserted to add their contents into the tank, and a lit [[Road Flare]] can be inserted to ignite the contents of the tank. Although many other items can also be inserted into it (with the notable exception of [[Liquid Canister]]s), Ores do not offgas into it even if the tank's contents are at a temperature high enough to allow offgassing inside a [[Furnace]].

			There is also a pressure regulator valve on the top of the tank that can be used to vent the tank to atmosphere (or into a sealed room). Note that this valve does not need to be opened when connected to a Tank Connector, but the setting of the valve remains persistent between connection and disconnection.
