Arduino SG Message Improvement suggestion

Hi guy, just a suggestion for communications from PCLC to Arduino regards STOP GO.

Area Concerned :
[SGnn1] - Stop Go Light On
[SGnn0] - Stop Go Light Off


My suggestion :
[SGnn0] - Stop Go Light OFF
[SGnn1] - Stop Go Light INCURRED
[SGnn2] - Stop Go Light WAIT
[SGnn3] - Stop Go Light CLEARED / GO
[SGnn4] - Stop Go Light FAILED


This would allow use of RGB Leds to convey more accurate information..
IE, Amber when incurred, Green when cleared, Red when Failed


Similar could be applied to Pit Stop (In, Fuelling, Go) & Fuel Level (0%, 10%, 20%, etc)

On this more info on pit stop and fuel level I'm totally with you!!

And I would like PCLC sending the car position on each lap to do something similar to the Carrera Driver Display with arduino.



** This post might be moved to the demand section.

Hobbynauta - That's ideally what I've got in mind!

Positon information... I could only theorise a potentional protocol as...

[RPnnXX]

RP standing for Race Position (PO is used for Pit Out)
nn is the lane number
XX is the position of the car... as PC LapCounter supports 32 lanes, it would be double digits - IE, 04, 10, 26...
