UDP Channel Suggestions

Yes please, unique carid's for all 82 vehicles, just have them be the full name of the vehicle.  Currently simhub is generating strings of numbers as carids based off of all the unique data attached to that car.  Unfortunately there is not enough data for this to generate a unique id for each car as many have the same value when using this method.

Currently these cars share the exact same carid within simhub.  Please open up a new property with a unique carid for each car

As mentioned, this is part of another thread:  https://answers.ea.com/t5/Game-Suggestions/Need-UDP-Channels-or-session-info-for-Car-ID-and-Stage-ID/m-p/13179070#M300

(and hopefully it's just an integer starting with 1)

I would like to suggest an additional parameter for the pile:

Stage Progress

1. This allows custom stage progress overlays.

2. This is required for custom pacenote software to function.

3. This improves a lot of SimHub’s functions (right now, SH can’t tell the difference between shakedowns and full races).

Indeed, stage progress.  I was going to add something like this:

TIMING

- current sector number

- num sectors

- time for each sector in seconds (0 if not yet complete, counting up if in progress)

- class leader time

- class leader time at current position

- personal best (perhaps)

- personal best to current position (perhaps)

(anything else?)

I assume the team know about such a need anyway, but here it is.

All the proposed additions on this thread would be super to have.

Based on my very quick entry into adding WRC support to my tool., here are the additional fields I think are needed. I am sure, there are other fields too, which were helpful.

- Tyre id (which tyre is on)

- Penalties

- Is the lap valid

- Event ID, TT/Championship

The current distance needs to be fixed. Maybe add to the current data a percentage showing, how far the driver has progressed (0% at start, 100% at the end of stage, when the SESE is sent). All other games send the position on spline in % or as a value between 0 and 1. Now the current distance does not allow proper telemetry comparisons.

If tyre wear cannot be sent, maybe add one field to the SESS to show current wear and the one field to SESE to show wear at the end. This already would be great addition.

Cheers

A pulse for meters travelled so a Terratrip Rally unit can work. A Terratrip uses a Hall effect sensor mounted on the strut with the magnet on the rim. Simple but effective.

Any news for getting more telemetry data? Especially for hybrid. Using game own HUD is weakening immersion
