Introduction

Ka0s Leaderboard is an app for Assetto Corsa which aims to bring comprehensive in-game live timing into the game. Unlike apps like Rivali Tempo and RSR, this app will not push data to an external website for later analysis - Rivali and RSR do a fantastic job of that already. Instead, it will focus solely on in-game data display, with the long term objective of replacing the default leaderboard (which you get when you press TAB).

Instead of typing a wall of text explaining what the app does, just watch the video below and see for yourself (watch in HD Fullscreen) - keep in mind that the demo video showcases ALL of the information the app is capable of displaying - a typical setup will be much more condensed (see Sample Configurations section)



Apologies for the poor driving, I'm fairly new to sim racing ...

Changes in Latest Version (0.2.0 | 26-Jun-2014)

• Added color settings for header, alternate rows and best/worst for selected columns in config.py
• Fixed restart bug where some columns were not getting reset when you restarted a race
• Get car name from Assetto Corsa car data files
• Added columns (i) Lap Distance (ii) Race Distance (iii) Distance Delta for Lead/Previous/You (iv) Current Speed (v) Top Speed
• Added settings to refresh app display every 'x' frames
• Code cleanup for efficiency
  

Installation

• Download the latest file from http://www.nexusmods.com/assettocorsa/mods/1/
• Extract the contents of the archive into your main Assetto Corsa folder (typically SteamApps/common/assettocorsa/)
• In-game (during a session), move your mouse towards the right of the screen and click on the "K" icon shown below
  

Configuration

You can configure many aspects of the app directly in the code (Configuration GUI is Coming Soon ™).

Head over to SteamApps/common/assettocorsa/apps/python/ka0sleaderboard/src/config.py and tinker away to your heart's content. There are pretty detailed comments inside the file itself, explaining what the various options do.

You can :

• Change the font size and window opacity
• Change the colors being used for various features
• Adjust the number of rows being displayed
• Modify which columns are displayed, and the order in which they are displayed
  

And more!

Known Issue

The app does not current work in multi-player races.

This is due to a bug in the API which does not record all data in MP races. Rombik has filed a bug report for this here, but no luck yet =( The devs are aware of this, so hopefully this gets fixed soon. This is Early Access after all, so have patience =)

Bug Report

=== Python API doesn't return LapTime, lastSplits, BestLap, LapCount for other cars (id != 0) in MP ===

This info is a must have for apps which show timing, positions, delta etc.
Btw, API for NormalizedSplinePosition, DriverName, etc works fine.

PS
I understand that this is low priority and related to "Programming Language - Apps - GUI Themes" forum, but it seems like that forum is ignored by developers.


Credits

This app is heavily inspired by Rombik's Race Delta app, and uses a lot of the same codebase (with his permission ofc). Big thank you!

TODO

• GUI configuration
• Lap mode for all drivers - show all laps for all drivers (useful for hotlap/practice)
• Pit/Invalid lap/etc indicator
• Add columns for current lap delta and projected lap time for on current lap
• Drift points column
• Bugfixes in replay/drag/drift mode
  

And more as I can think of stuff! Suggestions are also welcome of course =)
