ACC Results Companion V1.11.2 released (here)
Headlines:-
Tyre compounds and tracks
Tyre compounds are now available from ACC's shared memory interface. The available dry/wet tyres are should in the session page and the current tyre shown on each lap for the player. The tyre used will also be published on the ARC leaderboard.
As a side effect, I can now partially determine the track used. For GT3 cars only, if the car is running DHE tyres, then it is a 2020 track, otherwise it is the default (2018 or 2018/2019).
This is probably a good place to recap on what the different track years mean in ARC (rightly or wrongly).
- Originally, there was a differentiation as 4 tracks were re-surfaced in 2019 and there was a potential difference in possible times (the really noticeable one being Silverstone). So that you can compare like with like, different track years were introduced for these tracks. ACC doesn't report the differences, but you can re-assign a session using the Change Track Year dialog
- 2020 introduces a different conundrum. All the tracks are the same, but GT3 cars run on DHE and not DHD2 tyres, and there is a potential time difference. As such, the 2020 tracks have been added in ARC
However, this departs slightly from ACC. ACC gives you stats for every track in 2020. However, depending on the car, track and season you may have identical performance to 2019**. ARC's intention is that a track is only classified as 2020 if you are running DHE tyres. You could probably argue a different way that things should be classified, but I'm really tied into design decisions from a year ago now. As a result, if you are running Cup, ST or a GT4 car, the track won't be classified as 2020. (you can still manually re-classify, but why would you want to?). Also, only GTWC tracks are classified as 2020. There are 2020 versions of IGTC/British GT tracks, but you won't get DHE tyres with these.
I'm sure this will all change if Kunos bring out another DLC
** I'm conveniently ignoring BOP
Track Status/Rain Intensity
More new shared memory fields. A version of the track status was already there, but this gives it is a different format. These will also be published on the leaderboard
