Fuel Bar Color

Hi, I have a problem with the status color related to the fuel quantity. I am using "Stack Size Controller" and set it up to (225,000). It seems the plugin depends on that. Is there a way to fix that?

Hi, try restarting both plugins. Since I installed the StackSizeController plugin and set the same limit, everything works for me.

Colors also work fine depending on the fuel level in the tank.

Fair enough. Thanks for your quick support. Keep up.

If the issue persists, feel free to report it in this thread.

I was not clear in explaining the issue. I want to set a custom amount of fuel, not that related to the stack size. For example, my low-grade fuel stack size is set to "225,000". I want to set "500" amount of fuel on the vehicle to be green. The colors should not be related to the percentage of the fuel stack size.

As far as I understand, you want the colors to change depending on the amount of fuel, not by percentage?

That's right. Is there is a way to do that?

Since I don't quite understand what you want, I'll explain how the color change works. The maximum fuel stack size and the amount of fuel in the tank are taken, and from these two numbers, a percentage is calculated. This percentage is then used to set the position for the progress bar. You have the option to set your own limits in the config file under the 'List of Gauge Indicators' section.

Here is an example of a list of colors for different ranges. You can specify more or fewer values, but it's important that they do not overlap and that the first value equals the last value of the previous range.

"List of Gauge Indicators": [
    {
        "MaxRange": 1.0,
        "MinRange": 0.9,
        "Color": "#B1C06E"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.9,
        "MinRange": 0.8,
        "Color": "#F7BB00"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.8,
        "MinRange": 0.7,
        "Color": "#F70000"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.7,
        "MinRange": 0.6,
        "Color": "#008080"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.6,
        "MinRange": 0.5,
        "Color": "#4B0082"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.5,
        "MinRange": 0.4,
        "Color": "#00FFFF"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.4,
        "MinRange": 0.3,
        "Color": "#800080"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.3,
        "MinRange": 0.2,
        "Color": "#FF00FF"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.2,
        "MinRange": 0.1,
        "Color": "#00FF00"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.1,
        "MinRange": 0.0,
        "Color": "#FFA500"
    }
]

Unfortunately, colors can only be linked to percentages. For example, 500 units of fuel is approximately ~0.00222%. You need to create this range and assign it the desired color.
For example, a range from 0% to 0.1(10%) in your case would be from 0 to 22500 units of fuel.

Your calculations are logical. I have done that and the colors changed. However the progress bar did not change.

"List of Gauge Indicators": [
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.00222,
        "MinRange": 0.00200,
        "Color": "#00FF00"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.00200,
        "MinRange": 0.00180,
        "Color": "#FFFF00"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.00180,
        "MinRange": 0.00160,
        "Color": "#FFA500"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.00160,
        "MinRange": 0.00140,
        "Color": "#FF0000"
    },
    {
        "MaxRange": 0.00140,
        "MinRange": 0.00111,
        "Color": "#800000"
    }
]

@Ahmed Alkaabi
You need to fill the range from 0 to 1. In your version, there is no color for the range from 0 to 0.00111 and from 0.00222 to 1.

I have changed the "Status. Progress - OffsetMax" and fixed it. Thanks for your support. I hope the next update we will get to set the desired max fuel tank that is not related to the percentage of the fuel stack size.

Thanks again for your support.
