Fuel set up

[mnik81]

Good moirning every body.

Does any body know how to set fuel quantity at the beginning of a race?

Or if I want to make the fast time in a circuit with few gasoline in the tank how can I seti it?

In all race and timed race the computer make me start every time with full tank.


Thank.

You cannot set the fuel load for the car, it's always fixed at 100L (or 100%, but full load either way)

It's only possible to set the starting fuel on the lobbies, unfortunately.

OOOKKK Thank you very much guys!!!

Don't you think they could improve the possibility to set fuel quantity in some new release?

I'm thinking to send them a mail to ask it!!!

In a race without fuel, all cars are equal.
In a race with fuel and no car would run out of fuel anyway - why would you want to introduce a feature that only allows players to make wrong decisions (not enough, too much)?

Is there a specific reason you want to do this? I dont see the point to it.

Yes for example if my strategy is to go fast at the begoinning because i'm much cnoncentradted or any other motif I can do it, ort for example, now I don't remember the race (I'm at office now), I always finish with some fuel left, I may put less at the beginning and beeing faster for all the race..... or during the qualification I m faster with lower fuel.

please if I miss something tell me. And sorry for grammatical error I'm writing fast

qualification

They are always run on an empty tank, no need to worry about that

if my strategy is to go fast at the beginning

Any pitting is slower than starting with more fuel

I always finish with some fuel left

There are some very specific setups where this will happen, yes.
But at the same time you propably could go faster by making a few changes that increase fuel consumption.

Other than that I can see why this can be a use case, though it shouldnt be the majority of events where it can happen.

Your thesis are ok, thanks, but in this way I'm not as free as I want to decide strategy

For races where rain in expected to come/go away, or where a using RM/S for a multiple stop strategy is faster overall than RH, the setting of starting dual load would be very advantageous. It could be implemented in the mini car settings menu where you can quick change the tyres.

To whom? Polyphony Digital doesn't publish external email address - largely for this reason.

You'd be better off putting a thread in our Suggestions/Features forum:

I'll do both, Famine do you mean to open a new topic may be with title like "improve fuel setting" under the section you linked me?

Jab thank you very much I'm looking to do it!!!

OK I only found this mail:

PlaystationPR@sony.com [undefined:PlaystationPR@sony.com]


Hope someone will read my need.

PlaystationPR is not Polyphony Digital.
Polyphony Digital as the developer of Gran Turismo is a seperate entity to PlaystationPR which in fact is Sony, as the last 9 character of the email address declare (though in cooperation it would theoretically be possible to be hosted by Sony).

Instead read here: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/how-to-submit-your-gran-turismo-suggestions.297728/
and then follow up.
