Nope, last night it was 1 ltr when I opened the race button .. Bare in mind I had to adjust my race fuel as well. As I closed it i said to Richard I wanted to check it again but it sends you to start in the pits if you open set up when on the grid. If I had checked i believe it would of said zero. I can probably add fuel on track but impossible to race and play with the menu.

I add a litre when on the grid

 

[gearwhine]

Ok, interesting. I'll try that then. Maybe that'll fix it

 

[gearwhine]

Maybe, it's only on the countdown that you can't go back to pits?

 

[JamKart22]

You don't need to go to the pits. Just bring up the pit stop menu when you're on the grid and add a litre

good idea from Colin, beat me to it, use the i think direction keys map from waiting at the start line to fuel it for 1 litre. then you have no need to go into the pits or menu.

Vanilla AC will not work if you have a lot of mods which I have. Have done a steam file check before and in the past an Ai race. I think it is just online. It's fine if the race is longer and take fuel and tyres. Every time I take 1 ltr only i have no confidence it will work. It shows 1 ltr when I close the setup menu and yes after the first race i make sure it's there. When I then pit there is zero fuel there. Maybe i can run with the pit window open to see what happens. Doing my effin head in

you could take 5 litres or 4 litres or 3 litres or 2 litres, don't take 1 litre,

Before entering a pit stop, I even check this menu to see if the correct amount of fuel has been set for refilling. In every race.

Not easy to check your stop at 200 kmh especially in VR. Maybe i can train myself to get into the menu but it's not easy. I'll give it a go though.
Never had to do any of this until now

I do this one or two laps before the pit stop on a long straight. I use the dpad on the steering wheel for this. I introduced this when I forgot to set the one liter. Since then I always do the check during the race.

This is an essential trick for me as I sometimes put too little in and have to modify the fuel in order to finish the race. So well worth setting it up.

I have a D pad allocated to my pits. I will practice using it and see if i can make it happen.
