CVT Fuel System

[Deff]

I was just wondering that CVT has a really advanced type of fuel system , its really too good! But i wanna know how it works?

I mean if anyone can explain in detail how it works, would be awesome as I am doing my fuel missions currently, so i wanted to know what i am doing? (i mean the effect)


As far as I know, Fuel prices increase when fuel is low in gas station and decreases when a tanker unloads there.
But how does it increase?

I mean

• whats the capacity of holding fuel in our gas station?
• What is capacity of fuel tanker?
• After what quantity does the fuel price increase ?

If someone could answer these questions i would be grateful.
Thanks and Merry Christmas!

all i know is that fuel prices increase after server restart

Fuel prices depends on how much there is fuel left. Eg theres 2/4 left and rate before fueling is 3 it will pop to rate 5 or 6. And it becomes for fuel haulers a unload point. There is no reliable way to measure the size of fueltank.
And on restarts the fuel stations are "empty" so rates are like 10 or 12 but you can still refuel on them. So fuel never ends from them but rate is changing how much it has used since last tanker has unloaded to it

understood some percent. thanks for the help

I will leave this thread open for more satisfactory answer though.

I think in addition to the prices being higher after a restart then slowly increase.

What I would like to see for those of us with the fuel achievement, is the regular price in brackets like:

Rate 1 <<<< Me
[Rate 10] <<<< everyone else

So I can see how I effect prices, I like giving back

I mean there is no scripted like timer which raises the price. Its just amount of usage.
And it resets whole system on restarts.

Each gas station has a certain amount of fuel in it, which defaults to 100 when server starts. When you fuel your car at that station, it decreases by 5 , and when you deliver fuel, it increases by 40 up to a certain limit after which it will no longer increase.
Fuel price depends on how much fuel is in the station.
When you deliver fuel, only 4-5 stations with the least fuel are picked as your destination.

* The numbers above are not exact values since I don't remember them. they are there just as an example.

thanks a lot for the explanation mick.
I have understood the fuel system well now.

i though its random till now :/

Thanks everyone for helping in this.
