Apps AI Pit Stop App

[Nuzzi]

Nuzzi submitted a new resource:

AI Pit Stop App - Simple App to make the Ai do a pit stop in race.

This app allows you to define a 1 stop pit strategy for the AI to use in your races!

This app allowed you to customize the following:

• Set the AI's starting tyre compound.
• Set which lap the AI pit on.
• Finally set what tyres they put on in the pits.

Requires:

• Custom Shaders Patch Version v0.2.0

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

1.1 - Individual Ai Strategy Variation!

This update brings the following:
- A new setting for users called AI unique strategy.

With the above set to true, each individual AI car will have the possibility to pit: on the lap you set, one earlier, or one later. More info in the read me and code comments.

- Also some misc code improvements.

Thank you very much, i can't wait to use

It is possible to add a range of laps where AI will pit, like 15 to 45 and only one pit ina race of 60 laps?

Super Thanks

Hi,
Yes, you can edit line 48 in the Nuzzis_Pit_App.lua to set the range of potential AI pit lap to a lower and upper bounding that you want. Using your example, you can change the following so they pit once in the race on a lap in-between 15 and 45:
Original:

Pit no sooner than lap 15 and no later then 45:

(Don't forget to make sure aiUniqueStrategies is set to true at the top of the file.)

Thanks Mate!

That's a real game changer for me. Now the Race are really more real.
ThankYou Very much.
i Tested on 4 Races everthings superclean and super smooth with multilple class and cars.
So my Feedback Report:
- 1 Race two different cars dosent' pit, BMW URD and Ferrari CLM. (But the sister yes)
- It is important to set right tyres mixer before start because a lots of cars had different compound, and if you don't match right, somebody start with WET.

For the rest

AMAZING

This is such a great idea for a mod - One question before I install -

Do I have to do a single race or will it work over a race weekend? I like to Qualify and race all in one - PURE to my knowledge is raceday only thing - which is why I use a very old version of it!

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

1.3 Now supports tracks where pitbox is over the start line.

I noticed for tracks where the AI reaches the pit box on the start of the next lap, the tyre compounds weren't changing. For example, Suzuka is a track that has this.

I have updated the code to fix this, so these types of tracks now work fully.

Thanks for the amazing job! this app is game changer.

It is possible to randomize the AiStartTyreCompoundIndex in way to make every single AI car start with diferent compound?

Hi, the app is set up to automatically be disabled in all sessions apart from races. So if you do a race weekend and it will just affect the race session. Should you just to do race session directly, the app will also work no problem.

Yeah, it's completely possible!
It would require some thought as to: adding the logic, adding the user options & how it would affect the rest of the strategy. So I will have to consider it for a future version.

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

Alternate Version created (info below.)

Alternate Version Info:
I have produced an alternate version of this app, found at:
https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/alternate-pit-app.67102/
This version resolves the AI spending too long in the pit boxes, but visually they won't turn into the box. (It's better for those who want better competition with the AI. Go to the link above for more info.)

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

AI not leaving pit box bug fixed!

This version fixes the bug where AI would not leave their pit box as soon as the tyres were changed. Some would sit for approximately 20 seconds for no reason, ruining the competitiveness of the race.

This version completely overhauls the AI's behaviour in the pit, so now they have an expected tyre change time with a bit of randomness to simulate a quick or slow stop!

I've made some offline races and notice that in last version, even though cars turn to pit and change tyres, the game does not count as a real pit stop and damage is not adjusted to zero. There's a way to fix this?

Hi,
Since I'm manually controlling the AI in the pit lane, they don't actually use their original pit boxes, thus don't repair damage. That said, I'll look into making them repair damage whilst they are putting the tyres on, with an added time to fix.

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

v1.5 - Misc Code Improvements & Bug Fix

Improvements:
- Code readability

Bug Fixes:
- On the first race when starting Assetto Corsa, one AI driver would not pit. Now they will pit on the following lap.
- Code now resets the stationary driver and re-applies the starting tyres when a restart to the session occurs.

Nuzzi updated AI Pit Stop App with a new update entry:

1.6 - Handle AI Fixing front and rear damage

What's New:
- The user can now define how long is to be added to an AI pit stop for them to repair front and rear wing/bodywork damage. This is done through two new user variables at the top of the Nuzzis_Pit_App.lua file.
- If the AI has substantial damage (more than 5) to either front or rear wing/bodywork, they will fix it at their tyre stop. If it's not substantial, they will just change tyres.

Hey Nuzzi! Love this mod, currently using it for sim races and works really a well.
A couple of possible considerations for the future -
1. Multiple pit stops. This would be great for longer endurance races.
2. Different tire strategies eg -
Strat 1. start on softs, change to softs, change to mediums
Strat 2. start on softs, change to hards
Strat 3. start on hards, change to mediums

Startegys would be randomly assinged accross the field
3. a larger variation betwen when drivers pit other than 1 lap difference.

Again awesome work, well done.
