    @Ad2mny I think moving forward, when we get the head count for the lobbies new lobbies will have to be made, for a few days now I've been booted from a session I've been invited to that was already in progress, once the session ended I've been kicked, then when I return I have the view locking bug, just a suggestion mate

    Pitstops are still messed up guys. I don't know how to sort it. Even when I select the correct tyres, they still don't seem the same. @finchy had intermediates thrown on the other night.

    You need to save your pit strategy and select it before the race. Unfortunately this will mean more testing for you guys. I can post a step by step how to arrange your pit strats if you would like?

    Roger that a step by step guide would be great. I know how to create pitsops and all it's just getting them to save which is the tricky part

    Ad2 can you post your step by step guide, I have just done a test round my spa and my saved strategy did not work fuel ok and right compound but psi out by 40 and depending where you are in pit lane not enough time to change and stop won't start til you exit the strategy settings.

    This could still cause issues on Fri

    Ok sorry for the delay.

    Just did a full distance test. I skipped the first 15 min practice (there will be 2) and it got dark and then the sun started coming up at the end too.

    Pit strategy settings. DO NOT RELY ON PREVIOUSLY SAVED SETTINGS. DO NOT HAVE MORE THAN 1 STRATEGY SAVED. Make a note of what you want to run and set it up in the first practice session. Make sure all your pressure settings are correct and make sure you name AND SAVE the strategy. Also as you exit the strategy set up make sure it is set to active.

    The Porsche made it to lap 12 on 50ltres of fuel, so that's a bit more than 4 litres a lap. The fuel tank will hold 120 litres but I'd rather split it down the middle and am gonna start on 70/60 and set my strat to fill 70/60 (depending what I start on). The amount of fuel that goes in is where the line that you can move is sitting, and for some reason you cannot put less than you are starting with. I hope this helps, but any more problems we will try sort them out ASAP.

    you cannot put in less then you start with as theoretically your tank already holds that amount in it. The trick here is to predict what lap you wish to pit on and predict your fuel level for that point in time, adjust your race fuel to that level then adjust your pit stop amount,

    What happens if you guesstimate wrong?
    Does it still fill up to a certain level during the race?

    You can adjust on the fly, but you gotta be quick. It gives you the option to edit the strategy as you roll into the pit lane, or you just close it to run your selected strategy. If you can do a few laps and work out your consumption that will make it easier to decide how much you will need.

    it will fill to whatever you set it to, if your unsure I would suggest just splitting a 75lt/ 76lt strategy,

    Yep that is correct. You will need 130-140 litres total to finish (that's for the RUF, others may use more/less) and they only hold 120 litres. Remember to set your pit strat on the night in the practice session, and make sure it is the only strat you have saved so you don't get confused in the heat of the moment.
