Electric Vehicles

Quasar Fuel Stations supports electric vehicles with a customizable charging system. This system includes predefined charging stations, specific charging rates, and vehicle offsets for accurate charging point placement. Below is a guide to configuring the electric vehicle system in your server.

Configuring Electric Charging Stations

Electric charging stations are defined in Config.ChargeStations. Each station has specific coordinates and a model that acts as the charging point.

Adding a New Charging Station

To add a new electric charging station:

1

Locate the Config.ChargeStations section.

2

Add a new entry with the following details:

  • coords: Location of the charging station in vector4(x, y, z, heading) format.

  • model: The model of the electric charger (e.g., electric_charger).

Config.ChargeStations = {
    {
        coords = vector4(175.9, -1546.65, 28.26, 224.29),
        model = `electric_charger`
    },
    {
        coords = vector4(-51.09, -1767.02, 28.26, 47.16),
        model = `electric_charger`
    }
    -- Add more stations here
}

Charging Rate

The charging rate determines how quickly electric vehicles regain energy. Adjust this value in Config.ChargeRate to set the desired speed of charging.

Key Parameter

1

Config.ChargeRate

Defines the charge rate per second. For example, a value of 1.8 charges the vehicle from 0% to 100% in approximately 56 seconds.

Config.ChargeRate = 1.8 -- Charging rate per second

Custom Offsets for Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles may have unique designs requiring precise nozzle placement. Use Config.CustomOffsets to configure offsets for specific vehicles.

Adding Custom Offsets

To add offsets for a specific vehicle:

1

Locate the Config.CustomOffsets section.

2

Add an entry with the vehicle model as the key and offsets as vec3(x, y, z).

Config.CustomOffsets = {
    ['tesla_model3'] = {
        vec3(-0.9, -1.3, 0.5), -- First nozzle position
        vec3(0.9, -1.3, 0.5)   -- Second nozzle position
    },
    ['voltic'] = {
        vec3(-0.8, -0.5, 0.6),
        vec3(0.8, -0.5, 0.6)
    }
}

Fuel Type Configuration

Electric vehicles use the electric fuel type. By default, this is automatically assigned based on the model. The configuration for fuel types is managed through model_fuel_types.json.

Key Information

1

Fuel Consumption

Defined in Config.FuelConsumption['electric']. Example: 5.0 for faster consumption.

2

Dynamic Assignment

Models and their fuel types are mapped in model_fuel_types.json.

Integrating Electric Chargers

To fully integrate the electric charging system:

1

Ensure the electric_charger model is installed and accessible.

2

Add electric_charger stations to Config.ChargeStations.

3

Verify vehicle models are correctly mapped to the electric fuel type in model_fuel_types.json.
