in partnership with
I have modified it with permission from AdderSwim to adapt it to the RaceDepartment club races.
This included:
* Renaming the app to include RD in its title
* Modifying the preferences.ini file to include RaceDepartment servers to allow the app to message on behalf of users
* Changed app icon to the RD club badge as designed by Akis
The following is a direct excerpt from AdderSwim describing the app perfectly:
"The python app includes the option for many rules used in current and recent F1 to be checked. The main aim is the 1s DRS activation rule. It is set up to give chat messages to a server when rules are broken. However the app cant prevent the DRS being used at the incorrect time so it sends chat messages when rules are broken.
Rules that the app can give notifications on:
- DRS use with car within 1 seconds at activation point after lap 3
- Top 10 cars use same compound tyre they did best qualifying lap on. App reports which tyre they did their best lap on in qualifying, and shows blank in practice.
- Minimum of 2 tyre compounds to use in race
- Ban on refueling (No refuelling allowed in pitstops)
- DRS violations give a drive through penalty and these can stack, but every infraction is logged in chat so you can apply whatever post race penalties you wish.
To stop spam and annoying beeps the app only posts messages to servers which name contains one of the strings defined in the preferences and app only starts up if car is one of the cars in the preferences list.
Sadly can't stop DRS being used so this is pretty much only of use to leagues and not useful for single player vs AI.
Feel free to modify the app to suit your specific leagues needs. The intended use of this app is that you get your racers to download this app which is installed by extracting the folders into the assettocorsa folder. You then modify the /apps/python/ACRL_DRS/rules.ini to suit your needs and get your members to replace the rules.ini file with the one you made."
