Nice going devs, what a way to treat your loyal users,,, can't be ****ing arsed to sort this out, shame on you.

I don't give a shit who's doing it but surely it can be sorted.

Does "Take the money and run" sound familiar ?

Oh well Assetto Corsa is looking even more attractive now.

Man walks into a bar with an ostrich and a little bloke. They walk up to the bar and order their round of drinks. The little bloke immediately says "I'm not paying for that!". They get the drinks go off and sit at a table. Drinks drunk, they order another round and yet again the little bloke says "I'm not paying for that!". Anyway, this goes on for the rest of the evening and having heard what was said every time, when the man orders another round the barman says to him "Whats with the ostrich and the little bloke. Who, if you don't mind me saying seems a bit of a skinflint. He hasn't bought a round all evening!". "Well" says the man, "It's quite tragic really. I was on holiday and stumbled across a battered old bottle on the beach. I picked it up and rubbed some grime off, when a puff of smoke and a genie appeared. He said I could have one wish for releasing him. So I thought long and hard. I eventually asked for a long legged bird with a tight little c*nt"

Nice one

What a cock.

or should that be,

What? A cock?

I would recommend trying AONIO.
Not only does it have the top-down RADAR type display (which personally I found distracting, so I turned that off. I Don't like looking away from track when in the heat of battle) but AONIO also has a "Spotter" function, which gives audio feedback of the position of other cars around you.
I have replaced the .wav files that AONIO uses by default (Standard Windows alerts) with .wav files of a guy calling out "clearer" info.
I find it helps.

I "borrowed" the Spotter .wav files from LFSRelax by Gai-Luron.

Hmm, that's 3 times I've mentioned AONIO in this post, maybe I should contact EQ Worry and work out some sort of commission deal ,,, OK, make that 4.

Thanks again Victor

Thankyou Victor, the new ?actions work nicely
I would also like to second avetere's idea of combining PB and FUEL usage requests into one call (if possible).

I had looked into doing it that way avetere.
The way I'm implementing the comparison between PB and WR is by downloading the relevant data, processing it into a text file (one for the players PB and another for the WR list and saving them for future use, with options to update the data) extracting the relevant information from the pre-processed data, calculate the time difference and displaying. Doing it this way means I can show the info instantly(more or less), without imposing any delay for the user by retrieving data "live". It also means the app can be used "offline".
Thankyou avetere for "reminding" me of that method.
I shall have a little play around and see what I can conjure up.

P.s. I'm doing this as a learning project, trying to keep the old brain firing on all cylinders.

Aaah ok, thanks for the response Dygear, guess I shall just have to wait and keep my fingers crossed.

Hi all,
I am writing a little standalone (ie not a web page) app in Visual Basic (Ok who's that laughing? I can hear you) that allows a player to check almost all of their online LFS stats, well all the stats I can get anyway.

I'm using ?action=wr to get a list of all world records to allow a player to compare their online PB's against the WR's.
I know this isn't a very accurate guide to performance, race environment versus solo hotlapping, but hey, I was bored
But also I would like to be able to show how old a WR is. But there is no time stamp available.

Can this info be gained another way ?

Or could this info be considered for some possible future update to the pubstats system?

P.s.
First post on here, so, Hi to everyone who comes to this part of LFS land
:wave2:
