Fuel Usage x2 #249

If I use mod FS17_FuelUsageDisplay http://www.farming-simulator.com/mod.php?lang=en&country=ru&mod_id=56983&title=fs2017, then I see different fuel consumption. Which one is correct?

I do not know, which display value is correct. I am quite sure that my calculation is correct. The GearboxAddon uses the used torque and the specific fuel consumption (g/kWh) to calculate the real fuel consumption in l/h. But in the past the FuelUsageDisplay overwrote my internal variables. So I am not sure is 102 is really the value calculated by GearboxAddon.

There is only one way to find out: Please drive the same road at nearly the same speed with and without FuelUsageDisplay.

Today I'll try to test by an experimental method.

The test is executed. The conditions are the same: on the 6th gear, rested against the wall. 1 liter of fuel is consumed in 108 seconds. Then for 1 hour 33 liters are consumed. GearboxAddon shows fuel usage correctly.

Should we open an issue in the github repository of FuelUsage?

Gonimy-Vetrom commented 6 years ago

I think that it is necessary. I also like this mod. Now I will do it.
