Apps Fuel Usage (Esotic Mod) V1.29

[Esotic]

@felan The Fuel Usage does have a Window for estimating the time remaining with the current fuel in the car, but I realize that's not as useful as a suggestion for how much fuel you need at the next stop. I'll have to consider this.

@Esotic...thx for your answer. Guess I'll have to live with it...but hey...your app is really useful!

I'm hoping someone can shed some light here. My PC tripped during an AC session. After I reboot, Steam somehow lost track that I had AC installed, so I had to reinstall the game (although the folders were all intact on my HDD). Upon relaunching the game I realized the fuel_usage app disappeared. So I reinstalled it via CM (drag and drop). But when I go into the pit, this is what I see now. I tried deleting and re-installing a few times both manually and via CM but to no avail.

I tried looking into py_log and I saw this bunch of text, not sure if it meant anything

Fuel Usage Mini USING GUI SCALING
Fuel Usage Main Error (logged to file)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Fuel Usage stores data here: C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AC_fuel_usage

Go in there and delete everything and try it again. If you want extra credit find a way to send me a copy of the most recent files so I can test with them to fix the crashing bug.

I have a discord over here: https://discord.me/esotic

Cheers,

Thank you so much for the quick reply. Deleting the files under AC_fuel_usage fixed the problem!!

Hi, Esotic!
Is it possible to add hundredths to the main app "Fuel Usage" like in "Fuel Usage - Data"? Here's pic for explaining:

what I have to activate in the files, to see the petrol pump icon (Which will be yellow, orange and at lest in red colour)

 

[Esotic]

@Hebo Sen Are you asking how to enable apps?

 

[Hebo Sen]

No - that is not the problem - but only the size is too big (see pic app in car); I mean the "petrol pump icon", which is seen in your app demo-video fuel usage 1.19 in the corner upper left (see icon).
Thanks Esotic

Great app!
Though I have question, and maybe one suggestion.
How do I reset average litres per laps used? Noticed that most of the time when joining practice server average fuel usage per lap is already filled. No idea how many laps are taken into account to calculate that average, but it seems to be bit laggy, like averages can be.
Instead I am trying to compare fuel used after I see it crossing the line to my fuel target, then calculate difference between target and fuel used on last lap and add that difference to delta, which tels me if I need to fuel save (and how much fuel I need to save), or if I can push, because on few previous laps I didn't match fuel target, to I can safely go over the target without worries (and by how much I can go over the target without worries). Would it be possible to add place/option to set fuel target and have that difference calculated, stored and reseted when fueling?
