Hi,
I just ran out of fuel with what (by the stats on the 2D) should have been 0.3-0.4L of fuel left. Auto pitting didn't happen the previous lap and I crossed the line with at least 4L of fuel left (could have been more, I looked partway through the lap and saw 4L), and used 3.7L on my previous lap. I ran out of fuel in the pit lane.
If I remember rightly, this happened to someone else in my first season, which was over a year ago. Do the values not actually represent what is happening? Why didn't they auto pit the lap before if they needed to?
Thanks,
Tim

Tim if you see 4L that means you have something between 4.5 and 3.5 Liter left. Maybe some day they will change this, but at the moment just put 1 extra liter in it, it does not slow you down too much, and it's safe.

I have passed on to the sim developers to make fuel below 10 litres display with a decimal point (e.g. 9.9, 9.8, 9.7 etc.). I can not say how soon this will be implemented but this is something that has needed changing for a while.

Good move - but what's the bets the next question will be "Why can't we have 9.85 or 9.91 etc" LOL :D :D
And I only want to fill my car with 4.5lts not 5lts - sigh

I wouldn't mind too much about the display, if auto pitting had also worked.
Thanks, Jack/guys.
