Hello everyone, I've recently discovered that during a race there's a bug if you try to change the amount of fuel: it doesn't give correctly the number of laps you're doing with that amount. I try to explain it better: during the race you can see how many litres of fuel there are for the next stint, next to it there's the number of the laps you can do with that amount.
Recently, I've experienced something a bit chaotic and confusing.
I try to make examples: if I put 25 litres for the following stint, it says I can do 8.3 laps... but if I increase the amount to 26 litres, it says I can do 7.9 laps, then again if I increase to 27 litres, it says I can do 7.5 laps OR 8.3 laps again.
Same thing happens when I lower the quantity of fuel to put for the following stint: if I lower the amount from 25 litres to 24 litres, instead of lowering the number of laps from 8.3 laps to 7.9 laps, it says I can do 8.7 laps. If I lower to 23 litres, it says I can do 9.0 laps OR it comes back to the initial 8.3 laps.
All these numbers are examples, but I think you understand the problem that takes place here.

I can't understand anything of what's happening, all of a sudden it seems that the calculation of the laps is not working properly while changing fuel litres during the race, and if I need to change the strategy , I dunno how many litres I have to put to make a certain number of laps, because this bug doesn't help much.

Anybody else experienced this?

yes i experienced strange thing, on european GP today, my last stint on ss was a 6 lap stint, when i saw next stint it showed 16 litre for 7.3 lap, so i lowered 2 litre and it showed 6 laps, so i thought i'm good to go but than i was short on fuel for 1 lap, mathematically 16 litres was what i needed for 6 laps, i should have gone with to my pre race strategy,
frustrating i was got tricked in the last moment of my pits and changed according in race strategy, tho i must say i only experienced it today,

Does this video accurately show what you are describing? This was sent in to us a couple of days ago:


If so, we're aware of this, it's a small GUI glitch which should be fixed in an update we're working on.

Yes, that's exactly the issue I was trying to explain! Luckly it has already been noticed. I hope it will be fixed as soon as possible ;)
