Help with GAP time

Hi!

I would like make an application for get GAP time. For this task, I think know the position pilot car in the track. Rfactor/Rfactor2 set X/Y/Z world position but I would get % lap traveled. Is there any way to get this information?

Thanks!

 

I dont know wat exactly you mean..rfactor already has gap/difference parameters..
but probably you could use the dist variable, you can easily get the % of a given lap..

 

I need GAP in real time, no GAP un sectors.

Thanx!

 

I think those values can be found in the plugin?

Code:

struct VehicleScoringInfoV01
{
  // ....

  // Dash Indicators
  double mTimeBehindNext;        // time behind vehicle in next higher place
  long mLapsBehindNext;          // laps behind vehicle in next higher place
  double mTimeBehindLeader;      // time behind leader
  long mLapsBehindLeader;        // laps behind leader
  double mLapStartET;            // time this lap was started
};

 

yup that's wat actually i was telling.. its already in real-time..

 

Mmmmm I didn't find this variable... is mlapdist??

Thanx!

 

You will find this in a file called "Example.cpp" ...

 

But this is the GAP between my car and Next or Leader car, no GAP time between my actual lap time and my best lap time. For this task, I need the actual position in meters or % of a given lap.

Sorry if I explain it wrong...

 

You have to "cache" to current absolute top lap time(s) taken from best lap values and then calculate it accordingly ... if I get you right this time !?!?

 

Yes Frank. In other sims, like iRacing, SDK send you a % of a given lap. From this variable, I set two hastables: one with the best lap time and another with the current time. The GAP is, for the same % of a given lap, the diference between two times.

For this reason, I'm looking for the % or something similar to use the same code.

Thanks!

 

... I don't know much about iRacing regarding its SDK, but you have to do the calculation with the values available by the plugin. As far as I know there is no direct %-value giving you this gap you are looking for ...
