driver rotating in...

Just got the pclc program running recently, and have experience a couple annoying problems which I'm hoping it's because I haven't set the program right too start with...

While doing a timed race with 6 racers on a 5 lane track using the Trakmate interface board, when a drivers rotates out, then comes back in, his "Total" laps start at "0" again. The display never accounts for the laps he's run before he rotated out. The only way I can see the actual results is to click the "stat" button, and then "driver placements" at the end.

The other problem I'm having is how to set the program up in "practice" mode. How does one do this?

For practice mode just tick "practice" in the race setting window.
About driver rotation, it's normal...that's the way PCLC manage race with more drivers than lanes.
The only place where PCLC can show the real classement of a race with more drivers than lanes is to click on the "stat" button and then "driver classement".

Then what? Click "ok" and then the "start" button? That doesn't work.

That's normal? Sorry to sound rude, but it's not "normal" to start at zero again.

Would it be possible to provide an option to let a club/racer decide what value to display? For example, some clubs like to display the number of laps for the current heat and wait until all heats have been run before viewing the overall race results. Other clubs/racers might want to display their cumulative lap total (previous heats + current heat) to see where they stand relative to other racers as the race progresses. Since the cumulative data is already being maintained for the overall race placement, this seems like it would be easy to do??

It look easy but it's not....but i will try to do it in next version

Pc Lap Counter version 4.50 available at www.pclapcounter.be
In version 4.50 drivers total laps and fuel level is now restored when drivers comes back in the race.

Thank you very much Guy!
