I would suggest,that HUD during event should show x.xx fuel instead of x.x. When you practise,you also have this info.It is important for ingame strategy during live events.

Too much internet traffic to update the fuel in real time. Good idea but it would degrade game performance. I voted no.

I agree with Giovanni, all it would do is slash framerate

I don't know what you guys are talking about.
The game is already rounding the values, to show 10.2 or 10.23 makes no difference.

I also would like a better fuel estimation.

I must admit I can’t see how adding an extra decimal to fuel usage would make that much of a difference. So on that basis I voted no. 

However I completely don’t understand the slashing of frame rate. It would have minimal to zero impact.

It's not directly related to frame rate, it's about the server and client, sending and receiving that information every 0,5 s for 32 players which could cause the issue.

Off topic but with the servers being terrible it constantly disconnects, sometimes you don't even know it has and you're changing push level but nothings happening. By the time you reload you have cooked your tyres. So my idea is add a simple race timer so if you see that timer ain't moving it's time to Refresh

The info does not update every 0.5 seconds, but once a lap and it is a one byt more...

I would imagine that someboy, like Josè, whom works at Igp towers would know what he is talking about.

It sends the information either way,you dont have consumption x.x,it counts more decimals.

Fuel use updates every lap, but the amount of fuel you left updates roughly every second so you have all the info you need to work out fuel usage vs fuel left and manage your race efficiently.  Adding a decimal point would make no difference whatsoever.

I agree with you Cole, iGP Games should focus on much bigger tasks that mean much more than this idea

And what Josè is saying is that it is NOT about the calculation accuracy (how many decimal places calculated to), it is about how much more server space will be required to put an extra decimal place up for up to 32 drivers in every race.  If you think about doing that for every race in every league, that is TeraBytes (TB's) we are talking about on top of all the other storage required for this game.  It ain't feasible anymore.

Well either way this a thing the programmers will make clear and should not make a difference for gamers vote.It is suggestion not an order.If it is not possible,than that is technical matter and thats it.Voting and successible forum posts are not for technical features but for suggestions.

And a representative of iGP has told you why it’s not possible/isn’t going to be done.
