SOLVED Fuel capacity

PlanRZ

Guest
Hello, i managed to use fixed setups on my dedidacted server.
I tried to control fuel, and i can only set "starting fuel" locked by setup and with FreeSettings value.
But drivers can still refuel in pits with higher values.

Is there a way to set the maximum capacity of the reservoir at refuel ?

The only way i found to almost do it is to increase fuel consumption factor
but that is not very simple to "adapt".

Example :
90 L for 40 laps, with a factor 2 i get 90 L for 20 laps.
And then i can make sure everybody will have to refuel once on 30 laps race.

I would have prefered to block fuel capacity at 45 L ... lowering the delay in pits.

Any suggestions ?
 
Thanks ... I was hoping for a simplier way ...
I can make an Upgrade ini file ? Where do i find the values to set ?
Any example somewhere ?
 
Found it on redapg tools too : http://meetme.bplaced.net/rF2_onlineTools/rF2GGeninfo/special_generator.php

40 L, begining at 10 and with 1 L steps ... if i did it well ...

HDV=
HDV=[GENERAL]
HDV=FuelRange=(0, 0, 31)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(0,10," L",10)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(1,11," L",11)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(2,12," L",12)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(3,13," L",13)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(4,14," L",14)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(5,15," L",15)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(6,16," L",16)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(7,17," L",17)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(8,18," L",18)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(9,19," L",19)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(10,20," L",20)

HDV=FuelSpecial=(22,32," L",32)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(23,33," L",33)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(24,34," L",34)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(25,35," L",35)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(26,36," L",36)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(27,37," L",37)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(28,38," L",38)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(29,39," L",39)
HDV=FuelSpecial=(30,40," L",40)
HDV=FuelSetting=30
 
Yeah, that'll work. The Special entries are probably overkill in that case but that's fine, it'll do the job.
 
Thanks. It looks like i need to keep specials to start at something like 10L and not zero.

HDV=FuelRange=(10, 1, 31)

Will do it.

HDV= at the start/end isn't bad practice. You need that line whenever you change between sections in the HDV, so you don't need it all if that's all you're doing but if you forget it when also trying to change something in [PITMENU], for example, it won't work.
 
And do i need the empty line : HDV=

Here is the final file with two fuel capacities at the end :
As @Lazza has said already, some Update Overwrites don't work without the empty HDV= Line.
Also the Engine is one of them.
At least that was how it works in the Past and i doubt, that it was changed until now. ;)
 
How can i get the full list of HDV parameters ... I can't find the ones in [PITMENU].

I only found this one :

[PITMENU]
SingleTireTime=7 // Time it takes to change a single tire during pitstop - must add this value otherwise previous tire change timings are bugged.

The DevMode Skip Barber is the first Choice.
 
What do you mean by that ?
Launch rF2 in DevMode and open something ?
What do you mean? :)
I mean, that, if you open the HDV File from the DevMode Skip Barber,
Folder: ..\rFactor 2\ModDev\Vehicles\SkipBarber
you can see all (high probably) possible Entries in the [PITMENU] Section, that are displayed in the Game Menu too.

Or what do you mean with "the full list of HDV parameters"?
 
I never used ModDev and i'm actually only having a dedicated server.
I will check the files you mentionned when getting back to my gaming PC.

I mean to get all the possibilities to use in upgrade files, so all usable sections and parameters.

In Case that you want a List of ALL possible HDV Settings, the Skip Barber will not have them, especially some new Ones, like Push to Pass are missing.
And you, of course, can use every HDV Entry in an Upgrade.ini.
Additionally, you can also use Cockpitinfo.ini Entries (with cpit=...) and, if you use the SFX Sound File, all Entries from that (with sfx=...) in Upgrade.ini Files too.
