Why is the consumption calculated only by the RPM? about fs17_fuelusagedisplay HOT 11 CLOSED

Ok after a few hours of gameplay:

This solution is good.

from fs17_fuelusagedisplay.

Because in real life the consumption depends from hom many fuel is injected into the motor and the amount of fuel injected in the motor depends from the speed of the motor (aka RPM).
The gearbox emulates a real behaviour of rpm so if the gearbox is active I use RPM to calculate the fuel consumption.
This also prevents (and in most cases is the only solution) problems like #20 #19 #13 #15 #17

New stuff to discuss incoming
😁

Edit:
There is a problem. Full Throttle in a fully opened clutch cause 100% fuel consumption.

Hi there,

the best way i.m.h.o is a table about all vehicles with the specific fuel consumption. For example the Fendt 939 Vario S4 has by 100% Rated Speed and 80% Load a specific fuel consumption from 248g/kwh.

Formula:
(CONSUMPTION * (Density of the fuel in g/cm³)) * 1000 / (KW of the VEHICLE) = SPECIFIC-FUEL-CONSUMPTION

(CONSUMPTION * 0,85g/cm³) * 1000 / 287KW = 248g/KWh
= 83,74liter

100% Rated Speed and 80% Load = 248g/KWh
90% RS and 80% Load = ca. 223 --> 248 * 0,9
90% RS and 40 % Load = ca. 315 --> 248*0,9 + 40% (original 274g/KWh)

Instead of a table maybe a standard value of 230-250g/KWh is nearly on the most vehicles.

If you need help collecting data, tell me.

Currently the maximum fuel consumption is 250g/KWh with an extra 0%-25% based on motor running hours, so it's not too much wrong.
We should also consider that in FS the entire economy is boosted then if we want to balance a bit fuel costs we must at least double it.
What do you think guys?

from fs17_fuelusagedisplay.

About the gearbox I was thinking about something like this:
RPM (0-1) + Load (0-1) / 2
Maybe this is the best solution, but only if the gearbox is active because by default the motor RPM are totally wrong and I can't use them for calculations.

factor = RPM_factor * Load_factor

?

No screw this. Yours is better

It's a fork of Gearbox
