Issues with version 4 / Wrong driver in dashboard after disqualification

« on: February 22, 2017, 07:51:41 AM »

I often have to disqualify a driver when doing a race with kids. I noticed when doing a race with three drivers and halfway disqualify one of them, the dashboard shows the wrong drivers after the disqualification. The disqualified driver is shown and one of the others is gone. The pos ranking at the left is OK though

I have a question. Is practice the only option in quick start feature? Or do I just not know how to change...

Future Development / Car equalizer

« on: January 11, 2017, 04:01:33 PM »

We all have different cars with different charasteristics, handling and speed.
But if we race, we like to race cars that are kind of equal to each other. To make this a little easier, it would be nice to have a feature that can test the desired cars and advice or automatically change some settings for that cars to make them more equal.
Ideas:

1. Let the cars do a test one by one in which the car is placed on the track and RCS64 starts with a slow speed and increases the speed each 2 or 3 laps until the car crashes. Now we have information about each cars cornering perfmance, speed at a certain throttle level (by measuring the laptime at a certain throttle) and fuel use.

2. Let an experienced driver race each car for 5 minutes and collect the average laptime, fuel use and laps done

With the above information combined, and with some additional settings like 'Change slower cars to match faster ones' or 'Change faster cars to match slower ones' a system could be created to make a group of cars more equal.

Future Development / Default throttle profile for car.

« on: January 10, 2017, 04:15:16 PM »

Make an option in the 'Cars' screen in which you can select a default throttle profile for a car.
If this car is chosen in the 'Controller' tab and a user in the 'Event' tab, this profile must be selected for that user as the profile to race with.
 
This way a 'too fast' car can be restricted, without the need to manually select the right profile each time.
For the exact details concerning this functionality, additional thinking must be done.

Issues with version 4 / fuel % power setting for car.

« on: January 10, 2017, 06:58:29 AM »

Hi. Recently I bought a slot.it Lola b10/60 and chipped it. Is my fastest car now by far. But to make it kind of equal to my other LMP cars I need to restrict its top speed or handling. I set the power% to 51 now and in the fuel% power setting it goes from 45% to 51% power. This works fine except I have the feeling that the car is much less 'alive' . like if the speed does not differ much if I squeeze between half and full. My question now is: how does the power restrictions of a car work. Is it like a 5063 profile (a straight line to 50) or is it a straight line to 63 with a flat end?

Also are there any other options to restrict a fast car? I use burnrate and power now. I also tried throttle profile 'Low Speed' and this helps to make the car more alive. But it would be nice if the profile can be assigned to a car instead of only the driver

Issues with version 4 / auto track call

« on: January 07, 2017, 11:42:23 PM »

Hi all, I cannot get the auto track call to work. I am using truspeed IV and stock scaley controllers. Tried 1 and 2 seconds. Am I missing another setting?
