I'd like to know what UDP setting number you use if you are currently running RS Dash? I've had an issue recently in long races where about halfway thru there ends up being a 2 or 3 second delay that starts out of nowhere. It makes using the main screen, with the large gear indicator and rev lights, basically unusable as it's always behind in what gear i'm in. I end up switching to the tire temp/previous lap time screen. It happened at COTA on Saturday, Willow springs and it's happened in the long Vintage races. @hammerpgh i know you speak with the creator occasionally, could you ask if this has been an issue for anyone else. Thanks

Yeah no problem Greg, I chat to him regularly so will ask him. He's out of town this week though so may take longer than usual to respond though.
I use UDP 1 I think but I'll check it out later tonight when I get on for some time at Indy.

Here's the response I've just recieved in relation to your problem Greg.
Did you try changing the UDP rate? I run it on 1 but try higher to see if that helps.
Failing that I would guess that his suggestion regarding the cloud sync could be the best one to test first.
What platform is your mate running the app on? and what UDP setting is he running on in the game? Is he running a lot of other apps in the background? Are other people using the wifi, perhaps streaming netflix to a tv or mobile device while he is playing? Any significant load on the router could also cause lag with the data. Its also possible that it could be the internal storage for the cloud sync taking longer than expected to save the data locally before it gets uploaded. If the problem is consistent enough, he could try and run a couple of long sessions with the cloud sync disabled (ie signed out of the app) and see if the problem goes away. There are a lot of potential causes for these symptoms unfortunately, it can be hard to track down.

There are no other loads on the router or wifi when I race. I'm the only one home 99% of the time and the xbox is wired. However I am running the crew chief app from the same wireless tablet. I'll check what udp I'm on, but I seem to recall that I split the difference between what rsDash and crewchief suggested as optimum.
Last night I took note and it happened on lap 36, which was when other people entered the pit and we all got that weird little lag. The lag was less than a second but the delay applied to the app is always 2 or 3 seconds. I'll try using crewchief on an old phone instead as it can just sit by my side and not be seen. If that does not work I'll try the cloud sync.
I really appreciate you speaking with them.

Hi Greg,
Just had this from the rsDash developer:-
Hey,
I've been looking into the lag issue your mate has reported and I think I have found the cause. The issue is related to the RS Cloud sync code which was degrading performance over time as the amount of data recorded was increasing. I've just pushed a new beta build v2.2 to Android and to iOS which has a fix for this (although the iOS build will prob take 24hrs to be available due to the apple approval process). If your old phone was only freezing with RS Dash (and not other apps) then its possible this update may help your phone too.
I also made tweaks to the legacy netcode option so that it only applies to PCARS1/PCARS2. For all other games it is ignored, that was it doesn't cause problems with games like F1 2018.
If your mate is not already a beta tester, let me know his email address and platform and I will add him so he can try it out if he wants.
I had to rework some of the persistence and sync code for RS Cloud to fix the performance issues, I dont think I have broken anything, at least nothing I can see from my testing but please let me know if you see anything unusual with the portal sync.
Cheers
Craig
Let me know if you are interested in the beta ok.

Wow, what an opportunity. I'm not sure what the requirements are but I'm interested. I do own it for PCars and F1.

You get to see the updates earlier which is the big bonus and any feedback provided is always welcomed and as you can see he tyres to deal with any issues that are highlighted as quicky as possible. He puts in a lot of work on this app and the data portal so I'm always happy to offer ideas, etc. |

Hey guys ive been looking into getting either rs dash or rst app. Was wondering if you guys have used them or could recommend one. Thanks

They are quite different tools if I am understanding what you are referring to with RST. That is something you use in your practices to try to help with your setups. It's very impressive but also quite complicated I personally I found it too complex and a bit unintuitive to use. I have not looked at it for some time though so it may have changed since last did.
RsDash on the other hand has been a tool to use during your races, giving you information throughout the race such as fuel usage (average litres per lap, laps until empty, etc) lap times, opponent lap times, wheel slip, etc. But also and probably it's biggest use is that it logs your session laps times and also data for things such as tire wear, fuel usage, tyre temperatures, revs, speed, etc and uploads it to an online portal for later analysis. It's a perfect way to keep a log of all your sessions and when completing a race it really gives you a full picture of the event, showing lap by lap gaps to the leader for each car and the position changes that occur throughout the race.
The update that is in the pipeline gives even more telemetry showing braking and throttle inputs, steering inputs, speed, and hopefully wheel slip throughout a whole lap and allows yo to compare laps side by side to get an idea of where you need improvement. I have been running a raw version of this update and logging a lot of data over the past week for the developer to help him identify the cause and resolve some problems I was able to identify from an early release he gave me to test. I have been providing some feedback and suggestions on the update and some possible improvements to it. I can't wait to see it fully released as it is a really impressive piece of work. I would definitely recommend rsDash.

Didn’t know there was an update in the pipe Peter but look forward to it’s release. Yep he's put a lot of work into the telemetry output we can get from the game and it's really impressive. The ability to select any part of any track and see the various sets of data from 2 laps can really show you where you can improve. I'm going to see if there's any way we can get lap data from different users to be compared, that would be even more impressive but will probably be much more difficult to implement. |

I love RS Dash.
Peter I believe I've been a beta tester for the app ever since I had the problem a year ago and you put me in touch with the creator. My version always ends in "b". Last week I had to completely log in again and reset all my preferences. Is this maybe because of the new telemetry?

Does yours have the Analysis demo module included? |
