electric Volvo truck is not charging

[Torfhocker]

I have the electric volvo truck and my own charging station. i park my truck close to the station, the station is active (green light) and i try to press "R" to start the recharging process. but it doesn´t start, it immediately cancel the process.

do i do something wrong?
i have solar panels on my buildings and i try to charge it during the day. though i dont have a clue what is wrong

[subarufanCH]

the charging station stands on its own. no influences from solar cells or anything else.
sidenote: it doesnt charge when the vehicle is full ?!? best regards

vehicle is at ~30%

[subarufanCH]

hm...is there another station ? bga ? you can see the triggers with pressing F5, maybe wrong side ? best regards

so i tried some stuff during game speed at 360x and it only charges during night time, but time left is in realtime. so the game expects me to sit 50min+ in the vehicle and do nothing (still on 360x game speed)
there might be a bug

[subarufanCH]

tested it - works. theres a TIMER, NOT affected by speed (e.g. 360x) = REAL TIME !!
like in real life...^^ so >leave it overnight ? best regards

[Torfhocker]

ah ok, thx mate

[subarufanCH]

youre welcome ^^ best regards

set fps to 60 while charging, after charging turn back up. cause the charging is tracked in realtime (f.e 60 min left). realtime features are tied to framerate to be calculated precisely. x360 somewhat does the same magic.

Cool! (not the bug, the electric truck part). Glad to see so many new features. I played the last one a ton and can't wait to be able to afford this one. A little pricy for me. Just an old marine vet and on limited income so I live vicariously thru everyone else until it is cheap enough for me to get lol. anyways, this seems exciting

Just got some info from a bug report I submitted. This should be fixed on the next patch. In the meantime, just set framerate to <=60 in game and charging should work.

Summary: EV Charger doesn't work at framerates above 60 FPS
Description:
I can't get the Volvo FH Electric to charge unless I set the game framerate to
60 FPS. Any higher than that, and it won't charge

Steps to Reproduce:
Charger installed at <-723.0, 72.3> on that farm property. Attempting to charge
at over 60FPS sometimes allows charging for 10-15 seconds and then slowly
reduces to a brief flash of the charging confirmation before it dissappears

fixed in next patch

Never had this issue before, but can't charge vehicles any more since the last patch (1.7). Getting a brief flash of the charging confirmation as others on this thread, with pretty much no charge being added.

Changing FPS limit didn't have any effect.

I got it in 22 aswell, and it's so damn' random, sometimes it refuse to work if it's slightly over 60fps other time he doesn't care if it's 144.

I'm getting this bug too from 1.7. Setup game speed to x60 or above, sit at vehicle, and charge it sitting in it. Only that way works right now for me.
