Fuel Consumption

[ALVAZ]

Hi, I dont know if the fuel consumption set by BTB, is very real, because in rfactor appears, 28 litres/10 laps, but the thing is i can only run 4 laps, and of course, in rfactor the fuel consumption is set to NORMAL.
Inside .aiw file, there is a line where fuel consumption is set, but changing the value results in different numbers, 30 litres / 7laps, but I always raun only 4 laps, very strange!!
Any idea?

Thanks

The fuel consumption is not set by BTB.

This thread should set you straight.

hi, thanks eric, I spent all the morning calculating, and I can say:

1- bigger values means more consumption, but if you increase it very much in a 6 km long circuit, there is no a lineal relationship, i mean rfactor says 60 l / 8 laps, false, you can run much more.

2- for my mod F1 2008, a number such as 70000.000000 is good.

Thanks, regards

You are right in that there is no "lineal relationship" because every track is different.
Some have more corners, some have longer straights.
It really has to be personalised for each track.
just as it would in real life.

Glad it's working for you.
