Request: Valid lap status
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Hi,
Great plugin and additional properties, thanks for all the hard work.
Wondering if it is possible to add a property that determines if a given car is currently on a valid lap? I.E. if Car X is on an outlap or has invalidated the current lap, return 0, else return 1 , for example.
It seems this info is available within ACC on the track map but the current Simhub property (isValidLap) is available only for yourself and not other drivers.
Thank you
Hi,
Yes, the validity of the lap is available through the ACC's broadcast data. That doesn't take into count in or out laps, but it should be simple to calculate it ourselves.
I'm thinking to add .IsValid, .IsOutLap and .IsInLap properties for current and last lap, such that IsValid is the property directly from ACC. Then your use case can be solved by checking if Laps.Current.IsValid == 1 && Laps.Current.IsOutLap == 0.
It's great idea to make these available👍. I'm probably going to work on it after christmas, should be relatively quick addition.
Great, that is perfect. Thanks for the response and implementation! Looking forward to it.
