The online racing simulator
Error in OutGauge-Documentation
Hi there!

I'm not really sure if it was better to post this here or in the bug-forum.
I decided to post here as I think, Scawen reads here, too...

In Insim.txt there's the statement:
Quote :
You can identify an OutGauge packet by its size (92 bytes) and 4th byte : zero.

The size has already been discussed in sdether's .NET-library thread. It varies between 92 bytes and 96 bytes, if ID is off or on.

But the second statement is wrong, too. The fourth byte is NOT always zero. The 4th byte represents time. If it was always zero, it meant that a race could be max 256^3 milliseconds long (around 4,5h). As a race might be longer, OutGauge would stop working after ~4,5h...


Kind Regards
Red Runner
