Gasoline current consumption? - kraessig - 12-13-2012
Hi,
I've got a question. Right now we are preparing a setup for a study (at the university of salzburg).
One of our crucial factors would be the current gasoline consumption of the driven vehicle. Is there any way to get those?
I found an GetOutofGas method within the car object. (but i don't think that this will really be of use to me)
Help would be greatly appreciated
sincerely
kraessig

Hi kraessig,
you'll find the calculation of the fuel consumption in the class carengine. just look into the method "integrate". there you'll find this piece of code:
btScalar fuel_consumed = boost * info.fuel_rate * dt;
