v2.17.4

2.17.4 (2024-08-30)

• General

  • Fixed state check error while restarting API in rare case.
  • Add clickable API button on main window status bar
    that opens "Shared Memory API" config dialog for easy access.

• Fuel calculator

  • Fixed an error when calculating with Gallon unit.

• Relative finish order Widget

  • Add "show_extra_refilling" option, which shows readings of extra refilling row
    below "local player's refilling" row. Each extra refilling value equals "extra laps
    of consumption" plus "local player's refilling" value of same column.
    Those values save the trouble from manual calculation in case there will be extra laps.
    The first column of extra refilling row shows number of extra laps depends on
    "number of extra laps" setting, such as "EX+1" for 1 extra lap, or "EX+3" for 3 extra laps.

v2.17.3

2.17.3 (2024-08-19)

• General

  • Fixed a bug (introduced in v2.17.0) in API connector that would cause TinyPedal to stop work
    when user selected "LMU API" in Shared Memory API config dialog.
    Note, LMU API option is currently only a placeholder which uses the same underlying

v2.17.2

2.17.2 (2024-08-08)

• Brake bias Widget

  • [New]Add brake migration display, which shows real-time brake migration change,
    as commonly seen in LMH and LMDh classes.
    Note, brake migration is calculated based on brake input and brake pressure
    telemetry data, and is affected by pedal force setting from car setup and
    electric braking allocation of specific vehicle.
    To get accurate brake migration reading, it is necessary for brake pedal
    to reach fully pressed state for at least once while entering track to recalibrate
    brake pressure scaling for brake migration calculation.
    It is normally not required to do manually, as game's auto-hold brake assist is on by default.
    However if auto-hold brake assist is off, or the APP was reloaded while player was already on track,
    then it is required to do a full braking for at least once to get accurate brake migration reading.
  • Add "electric_braking_allocation" option for calculating brake migration
    under different electric braking allocation from specific vehicle.
    Note, vehicle that has not electric braking, or has disabled regeneration, is not affected by this option.
    Incorrect allocation value will result wrong brake migration reading from vehicle that has electric braking activated.
    Set value to "-1" to enable auto-detection, which automatically checks whether electric braking is activated
    on either axles while braking, and sets allocation accordingly.
    This is enabled by default. Note, it may take a few brakes to detect correct allocation.
    Set value to "0" to manual override and use front allocation,
    which is commonly seen in LMH class.
    Set value to "1" to manual override and use rear allocation,
    which is commonly seen in LMDh class.
  • Add "prefix_brake_migration" and "suffix_brake_migration" options for brake migration.
  • Add "column_index" and "decimal_places" options for both brake bias and brake migration.

• Misc

  • Updated User Guide for Brake bias Widget.

2.17.1 (2024-08-04)

• Fuel energy saver Widget

  • Fixed "minimum_reserve" setting not taking effect.

• Navigation Widget

  • Reworked map path drawing methods which completely eliminated high memory usage issue with this widget.

v2.17.0

2.17.0 (2024-08-02)

• [New]Fuel energy saver Widget

  • Show current stint estimated total completable laps and completed laps
    based on current consumption.
  • Show estimated target lap consumption to save (extend) one or more total
    stint laps, with customizable number of target slots (10 for more, 5 for less).
  • Show delta consumption against target lap consumption, which allows
    fuel or energy saving to be visualized and easily controlled in real-time.
  • Show consumption type in "FUEL" or "NRG" (if virtual energy available).
  • Show last lap consumption.
  • For complete customizable options, usage examples, see User Guide "Fuel energy saver" section.

• Virtual energy Widget

  • Add "delta energy consumption" display (to be in line with Fuel Widget),
    which shows "delta consumption" against last lap energy consumption.
  • Add "fuel bias" display, which shows estimated laps difference between
    fuel and virtual energy.
    Positive value means more laps can be run on fuel than energy;
    in other words, energy is drained faster than fuel.
    General speaking, it is a good idea to keep bias close to 0.0 so that
    fuel and energy drains at same pace, and slightly towards positive side
    to avoid running out of fuel before energy does.
  • Set new default low energy warning color to purple instead of red, which helps
    distinguish from Fuel Widget.
    Existing setting won't be affected, use Config "reset" to set new default.

• Misc

  • Updated User Guide info for Fuel energy saver Widget, Virtual energy Widget.

• Delta Module

  • Add data smoothing function to filter out unusual data noise.
  • Add "delta_smoothing_samples" option, which sets number of samples
    for delta data smoothing calculation using exponential moving average (EMA) method.
    Value range in "1" to "100". Default is "30" samples. Set to "1" to disable smoothing.
    Higher value results more smoothness, but may lose accuracy.
  • Add average laptime pace calculation and output.
  • Add "laptime_pace_samples" option, which sets number of samples
    for average laptime pace calculation (EMA).
    Value range in "1" to "20". Default is "6" samples. Set to "1" to disable averaging.
    Note, initial laptime pace is always based on player's all time personal best laptime if available.
    If a new laptime is faster than current laptime pace, it will replace
    current laptime pace without calculating average.
    Invalid lap, pit-in/out laps are always excluded from laptime pace calculation.
  • Add "laptime_pace_margin" option, which sets additional margin for current laptime
    that cannot exceed the sum of "laptime pace" and "margin".
    This option is used to minimize the impact of unusually slow laptime.

• Flag Widget

  • "Pit Request" indicator now shows "pit-in laps countdown" alongside
    "estimated remaining laps" reading that current fuel or energy can run.
    Note, "pit-in laps countdown" value is always calculated towards
    the finish line of current stint's final lap, and thus is always
    less than or equal to "estimated remaining laps" reading.
    If countdown drops below 1.0 (laps), it indicates the final lap of current stint,
    and driver should pit in before the end of current lap to refuel.
    If countdown reaches zero or negative, there may still be some fuel or energy left in tank,
    however it will not be enough to complete another full lap.

• Friction circle Widget

  • Add "show_trace_fade_out" option, which enables trace fade out effect.
  • Add "trace_fade_out_step" option, which sets trace fade out speed.
    Value range in "0.1" to "0.9", higher value increases trace fade out speed.
    Default value is "0.2". This option is enabled by default.

• [New]Relative finish order Widget

  • New Relative finish order Widget that displays estimated relative finish order
    between leader and local player with corresponding refilling estimate.

  • Add "show_average_pace" option, which shows personal current average laptime pace,
    this reading is also used in real-time fuel calculation.
    Note, additional "average laptime pace" calculation setting can be found in "Delta Module" config.
    After ESC or session ended, laptime pace reading will be reset,
    and aligned to "all time personal best laptime" if available.

• Weather forecast Widget

  • Add "number_of_forecasts" option, which sets number of forecasts to display.
    Value range in "1" to "4". Default is "4" forecasts.
