This is a fix for a very rare bug at the start of a timed race.
I never encountered the issue myself but was looking into a crash someone was having at the start of the race which was probably not caused by this app anyway. Also someone mentioned it in the discussion thread. So here goes.
Race mode
- Estimates fuel at the end of the race based on leader pace and current position on track
- During race mode the calculation looks at your calculated fuel consumption of the race itself allowing for fuel saving with visible result!
User interface
- Minimized version now shows your current fuel, laps and time you have left with the current amount of fuel
- When practicing the total amount of fuel for the race is displayed
- During the race the amount of fuel at the end of the race is shown
Configuration
- Race pace improvement can be configured as a percentage as expected gain due to car becoming lighter during the race (timed race)
- Pit stop time can be configured where you specify the expected time spent into the pits (timed race)
Bugfixes
- Session fuel rate is taken into account
- Support for different layouts of a track (stored data is separate now)
- Invalid laps are not processed
Minimized view when practicing, shows the fuel needed to complete the race.
Minimized view during race shows additional fuel, time and laps left at the end of the race. If you are short on fuel it will be shown with a minus sign (-).
Maximized view during practice session.
Enjoy!
Calculations can now be based on a single, multiple or stored sessions. The calculation types have different life-cycles explained below.
Single session : Resets every time a new session is started. For instance when going from practice to qualifying.
Multiple sessions : Is not reset between sessions but resets when you quit the sim.
Stored sessions : Is not reset between sessions and is stored on disk. Next time you load the same combo, if previous data exists it will be loaded.
Any calculation type can be reset at any time.
New view during race shows remaining fuel and remaining time or laps depending on whether it is a timed race or not.
+ bug fixes
Thanks to @WilliamTRiker for coming up with ideas on how to improve the app.
