Title: (Ability to?) Change fuel level indicator
Post by: Blackhawk on March 17, 2015, 11:51
I think that would be better, if display of fuel level indicator can be changed from vertical stripes to percentage display.

What? You have commands as well as the bars... They go red, or close to red = you need to fuel. Not that hard m8.

It would clutter the speedometer, we may want/need to add things to it in future.




I honestly don't see the point in this  ::)

I'm strongly against this as it's much easier to quickly evaluate fuel left with a glance when it's graphically displayed rather than text. I don't see how percentage would be better, except that maybe more accurate, but not as user friendly.

IRL vehicles don't show percentage, mobile devices also don't show percentage of battery left.

They do if you want them to do :D.

But yea I don't get the point of seeing the fuel in text, as dobby said:

yes I agree  with that some of mobile phones having percentage display about their battery left
but do we care about that in CT? I think the topic is about vehicle fuel indicator suggestion and talking about it would be nice than worrying about phones.

About the suggestion i would go with dobby

Just type /vinfo and you will see information about your vehicle including your fuel level with a percentage.

i found that /vinfo doesn't show the exact fuel details of our vehicle at that time ..maybe its not updating(maybe a bug) all other info about the vehicle in /vinfo works fine except fuel.

I'm against IT because it's more realistic how is IT right now, i'm tired of percentages.
