F1 22 UDP Specification

@Hoobiechoobie I ask you about this some days ago.

Can you let us know what the dev team thinks about the warnings matter?

Simhub couldn't read the Events packet. I know this is not EA/Codemasters problem, but also know Simhub is one of the most used tools to read telemetry, the one that GSI wheels or Cube Controls wheels use in their most recent wheels, for instance. You can find hundreds of dashboards on RaceDepartment made with Simhub.

F1 games do not have a White/Black flag, but before the last change, we can use the m_warnings to count how many times a driver exceed track limits gaining time

Please revert the change and return this possibility to us.

Because also, I don't see what use it has to count all the incidents that a driver has. Can anyone find what utility it has?

Thank you

Hi @ThibaudPHP,

We are still unable to repeat the issue here. Please can you confirm the following:

• When you say that you do not receive packet 7, are you referring to the CarStatus packet?
• If so, are you seeing that m_carStatusData[22] is showing no data (or default data) for the specified players in this array?
• You mentioned that players are not sending the correct value of "public" data and this is appearing as "restricted", are you identifying this value from packet 4 (Participants packet), or are you assuming this based on the values you are reading in from m_carStatusData?

Thanks,
Hoo.

Hi @navarreitor,

As this change was a result of a fix to incorrect functionality, it is not desirable for us to revert this. We are discussing options of introducing a new field that explicitly identifies corner cut warnings for a future revision of the UDP system. 

Thanks,

Hoo.

OK, but it's kind of disappointing. Surely there is an explanation, but if you have given it, I have not understood it.

I don't know what this change has fixed, or what use that data has for anyone right now.

Thanks for your answer

I've also reported the same issue

@Hoobiechoobie 
And please have a look at the Header.
I am not able to get reliable data for m_playerCarIndex.

Thanks a lot.

Could we get some details on what this Patch 1.15 note meant?

> "Updated and improved UDP data being sent between qualifying and race sessions"

Can we please get an updated UDP Documantation ASAP?
Car IDs got changed I am absolutely NOT in the mood to check every car by hand!

Thanks.
