    You're not supposed to be in the pit menu when you make the macro command. Remember the macro is just a sequence of key presses. Ensure your selected pit strategy has fuelling enabled (green), don't have the pit menu open when you issue the macro call, and try again

    Still no joy. Have the preset as in photo. I say fuel 10 litres , he say ok acknowledged, pit menu opens, front tyres turn green then white again.

    aww man... i know what this is and there's no sane fix unfortunately.

    If there's 0 or 1 pit presets available the pit menu will start off with 'fuel add' highlighted. If there's 2 or more available it starts off with the preset selected. The app has no way of knowing which it'll be and it's assuming you have 2 or more presets available.

    So if you created another pit preset, it should work as intended

    Excellent, I thought there must be something going on. I intend to make a full set of presets so should be ok.

    Is it possible to create macros for front tyres, rear tyres, all tyres, fix damage etc?

    Probably but it's made quite complicated and unpredictable because the r3e pit menu has a variable number of items in it. If you can work out a consistent sequence of key presses for an action that reliably works then a macro can be made for it

    Ah yes I see what you mean, I suppose fuel is the main one anyway that requires a lot of fiddling, the others are simple yes no so are probably best just left manual.

    Is it possible to talk to him about the incoming Pit stop? Like "Jim New front tire and 80liters"... Well he could do something for us. Because, normaly he is allways complaning about me... Alex. Concentrate on apex. Alex oh You cut the track.... alex be more carefull... Alex here and there and this... Pffffff pfff pfffpghftff!! Why is he not just driving by himself?.. Naa just kidding But i like the idea. well even without, crew chief is a blast! Amazing work.

    Hey, I really like the App, it works fine.

    Are you working on the updated shared memory of the upcoming update? Are there potentially new functions that you want to make use of?

    Now that ride height and suspension travel is part of the shared memory it would be good to have crew chief tell us if the car is bottoming out etc

    There are also pitmenu info in sharedsmemory and I'm almost sure it's there to allow CC to modify pit options more reliably.

    More setup info and better / more reliable interaction with the pit menu are both planned. It's quite a lot of work and I'm busy with life stuff at the moment, so it'll take some time

    Well more functions are always nice. Another App developer said, he was able to adapt his app in half an hour on those changes.

    It would be really cool, if CC would still run the same with the patch and potentially cool new stuff can come in the future.
    But @mr_belowski , I hear you. For a fun project this must be a lot of work.

    Adapting the app to work with the shared memory is quick and easy, but writing new features to make full use of the new data is a separate matter :)
