News π° - April 8th 2025
Added 2025-04-08 08:00:05 +0000 UTCHi all, it has been a while since my last update, and it's time to share some info!
1) The AI Pit app is getting a full remaster which will arrive over the next few days as it is currently being tested. I have re-written the code for the app from the ground up as I have learnt so much, and it needed fundamental changes to take advantage of this new knowledge! The remaster will bring the following crucial improvements and many more:
AI actually using track pit boxes.
A Fully New User Interface (See the image below I have attached for a preview!)
Improved pitting for AI when they are damaged.
Better Handling of default AC Fuel.
Increased compatibility with mod Cars & Tracks.
2) The Quali App will also see some major improvements. I will look to applying formula 1 style qualifying approaches for the AI. This means they will do an out-lap, fast lap and then in-lap back to the pits. This should improve the experience of qualifying sessions further.
3) All apps will also be getting an improvement to their UI as well as general code improvements. Particularly the Rolling Start App, which I wish to significantly tidy.
Once again, a massive thank you to all you members! I'm incredibly grateful for all of you in this amazing community. We have nearly 2000 members, let's push for it!

Also have a suggestion for the quali app to simulate q1,q2 and Q3, it's probably impossible to split the qualifications in 3 as this is surely coded in the game but what if when the player set the qualification length of 45 minutes it kinds of activate the rule in the app where after the first 18 minutes the last 5 cars won't be allowed on track anymore,after further 15 mins again the last five cars won't be allowed on track and that will leave 10 cars only allowed to track with last 12 remaining minutes simulating the actual F1 qualification system.This will only work when the time is set at 45 minutes by the player in CM so if people wants to simulate for example the qualifications of the years 2000 with all cars on track and 60 minutes that can be done too?
