AI Line Helper 2022.03.08

This version now supports a "SizeMult" in the INI that should scale all the UI elements by the specified amount.

Code:

[AI_Line_Helper]
UseHotkey=1
HideIcon=1
MakeGrooveline=0
AllowFollowFocus=0
SizeMult=1.0
DR_Files=C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/assettocorsa/server/DynamicRestrictors_ServerPlugin/dr_files/
ShowDRButtons = 0

There are also some extra buttons related to a server plug-in I am working on, but those are not helpful to anyone that's just making AI Lines, so for now those extra options can just be ignored.

This version is not likely to be much different than the last one, but I adjusted the logging to better show when buttons were pushed and what the AI Line Helper understood about those requests.

I also created a "Partial Side Lines Demo" video to help explain that process specifically.

This version should support more A2B tracks than before. If anyone has issues recording side lines with A2B tracks or circuits please let me know.

Cheers,

There is a new option in the INI that will allow the AI Line Helper to follow AI cars instead of the players car. Off by default and should probably never be used when trying to record side files, but could be helpful when you are just trying to read the spline data from the window title or letting the AI generate a groove line.

[AI_Line_Helper]
usehotkey=1
hideicon=1
makegrooveline=1
allowFollowFocus=0

The config.txt has been renamed to AI_Line_Helper.ini. When you apply the update the config.txt will probably still be in your folder, but will no longer be used.

There is a new "makegrooveline" option in the INI. If this option is enabled it will create a "data/groveline.csv" that I've been told will import properly into blender for helping to define the groove line, but I've not actually been able to verify that behaviour myself. If anyone has issues with this functionality please let me know.

[AI_Line_Helper]
usehotkey=1
hideicon=1
makegrooveline=1

The V1.6 should now work with p2p tracks (tested with Puy Du Lac http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/puy-du-lac-france.10729/).

I'm assuming these changes will not break compatibility with circuits. If anyone has issues with the V1.6 at circuits or p2p tracks please let me know.

Thanks,

The top buttons will now allow you to "Finalize" a partial side line recording before you have completed driving the lap.

Almost everything about the recent experimental version holds true for this version, except that I've properly tested everything and it should now work.

The only real change is that the hotkey is now CTRL+F4 (instead of just F4).

The V1.3 now contains the Position on Track in the title to help with adjusting the AI_Hints.ini file.

V1.2 fixes a bug where recording the trackRight would cause a crash on tracks with multiple layouts.

The V1.1 should now work with tracks that feature multiple layouts.
