Changing engine oil amount

What do you mean?

Can you post your final code here?

 

Okay you want the code I am using @AdamB Twin Charge engine and thats the code for you you may note 80 litres of oil but when your running an engine that exceeds 6000bhp you need lots of oil in it

Code:

        //cooling and oil system
        "variables": [
        ["name", "type", "unit", "category", "default", "min", "max", "title", "description"]
        ["$Oilvolume", "range", "L", "Engine", 8, 0, 80, "Oil Volume", "Initial Oil Volume", "Amount of Oil whithin the engine"{"stepDis":0.5}]
        ]
        "thermalsEnabled":true
        "engineBlockMaterial":"iron"
        "oilVolume":"$Oilvolume"

The Bits in bold are the sections I have added I over did the oil by a factor of 10 but it all works out I used the Stage 3 Turbo section to add in extra details

Code:

        "variables": [
        ["name", "type", "unit", "category", "default", "min", "max", "title", "description"]
        ["$wastegateStart", "range", "psi", "Turbocharger", 8, 6, 46, "Wastegate Start", "Pressure at which the wastegate begins to open"{"stepDis":0.5}]
        ["$wastegateLimit", "range", "psi", "Turbocharger", 10, 8, 48, "Wastegate Limit", "Pressure at which the wastegate is fully opened"{"stepDis":0.5}]

That was the section I also borrowed code from the first time I put it in was variables":[ and it failed because it was missing the " at the start

 

What's wrong with it? Code seems fine.

I'd put all the variables in a section on top, but I doubt that makes a difference.

 

It wont adjust in the tuning section when you go to look at it, enter that code in and go to the Parts Menu and then into Tuning and you will see what I mean

 

Might be a scope issue.

Try moving the variable declaration out of the engine code, put it with all other variables on top.

 

Do you want the engine file itself to see if it will work? so we can both work on it?

 

Sure, but I can't look at it right now, on phone.

 

Just to warn you this is a "Drag" spec engine with a Drag supercharger and a Variable Boost Turbocharger (VGT) on the exhaust side so its pretty bloody powerful, I will give you time to read it though, I understand dont worry I will let you take a look at it when your home

 

this should work

 

What changes did you make and what lines of code were altered?

@Inertia This is what happens with your fix it said "Fatal Vehicle exception" and then produced that....

 

I just moved the variables section out of main engine, where its supposed to be at the top. Nothing else touched. You have some other mod conflict there as this jbeam isn't related, I've verified that.

 

What about that screenshot I posted in Discord does that help you out with any of it at all, because this should be easy to do but its proving a real nightmare
