Hi,

We noticed that, since we have done a software update, the lapcounting differs from our previous PCLC version... especially in the cases when the next stint is started.
So starting a timebased race: we start before our tracksensors to be able to detect jumpstarts, and before the start the number of laps for all drivers are at -1. So after startsignal the cars pass the sensor (drove 1 cm) and then the number of laps goes to 0. This is good !
But now: when the first stint is over (time elapsed) the automatic roulation is done and race is restarted. Cars stay on the same position the have stopped earlier (but are set on the correct lane).
Now we have the strange thing that the number of laps for this stint are all again -1... This means that when passing the sensors again the number of laps go to 0. This is not correct and in our earlier used version (< 4.46) this was different.
What we would like to have is: from start of second stint onwards: number of laps at start of these stints should be 0, so when passing the sensors the number of laps is increased to 1.
For the start of the first stint (so the start of the race) it is correct to start at -1.
PS: you can only detect jumpstarts at start of race... after that the PCLC takes care that at each stint-end the power is cut off, and the power is put back again at the start signal (so you can already give full throttle).

It's a bug , the bug is fixed here: https://pclapcounter.forumotion.com/pc-lap-counter-install-update-beta-f6/beta-of-pc-lap-counter-448-t426.htm

PS:
It's possible to detect false start also after first segment but do it you need to:
- tick the race option "at all segment end, all the drivers must finish their lap"
- tick also the general option "False start also during restart"
....at the each end of segment and when all driver have finish their lap then you can put all cars before detector and PCLC will detect false restart cheers
