Releases · gAlexander77/racepulse-release

This release is all about stability and accuracy, especially during long Le Mans Ultimate sessions with multiple widgets running at once. We fixed several causes of mid-session crashes and freezes, and tightened up the math behind fuel, lap times, and the leaderboard.

More stable during long sessions

No more mid-session crashes on Le Mans Ultimate. Several edge cases that could take the app down during a race have been caught and contained.
One slow widget can no longer freeze everything. If a widget falls behind for any reason, the rest keep updating instead of getting stuck waiting for it.
Fewer "stuck" moments during loading screens and session transitions. Bad data coming from the game during these moments used to silently break the telemetry feed; it now passes through cleanly.
F1 telemetry handles bad packets without crashing. A weird or partial UDP packet now gets logged and skipped instead of taking the whole F1 connection down.
Cleaner shutdown. A few rare crashes that could happen when closing the app have been fixed.

More accurate data

Pit window warning fires when your tank hits empty. Previously the warning would disappear at the exact moment you needed it most.
Negative fuel readings no longer break the display. Fuel sensor glitches won't show nonsense numbers anymore.
Personal best laps are now correctly marked in the lap list and session export.
Lap consistency stat is now accurate (the formula was slightly too generous before, especially with only a few laps recorded).
Leaderboard rows no longer flicker when two cars share the same position.
Leaderboard gaps are correct in all cases — there was a rare situation where the gap to the car ahead wasn't calculated.
Track map widgets handle missing track data better. Cars no longer fly off to "infinity" while a track is still loading.
Le Mans Ultimate: the right car is identified as you. In some sessions, multiple cars could briefly look like the player car. Now only your car is.

Widgets

Cars sitting exactly on the start/finish line stay visible on the Flat Track Map widget instead of disappearing.
Fuel widget's low-fuel red color now triggers at the right moment when your remaining-laps count includes a decimal.
Overlay opacity slider can no longer be accidentally broken by an invalid value (it would make every widget invisible).

Auto-update

The updater now only installs stable releases. Beta and draft releases are skipped automatically.
Better error messages when an update can't be downloaded (you'll see what actually went wrong instead of a confusing "checksum mismatch").
