A tool to create starting grids for online racing in Grand Prix Legends

ONLINEGRIDTOOL

OnlineGridTool is a software application for the racing simulation Grand Prix Legends. It is written in C# (IDE: Visual Studio 2010). The current version is 2.0. Software requirement is .NET framework 4.0.


Description

This tool is reading the track.ini file. It reads the lowest / highest value of the left and right position from the original grid. These values will be taken for all 19 cars. Optionally you can change the left / side / vertical values manually.

You can create grids which are very safe for online racing thus reducing the chance of a start crash.

Example

| position| distance| metres of center line | |:------------|:------------|:--------------------------| |stall_0 | 11906.0 | -1.45 | |stall_1 | 11897.5 | 1.55 | |stall_2 | 11889.0 | -1.5 | |stall_3 | 11880.5 | 1.5 | |stall_4 | 11872.0 | -1.55 | |stall_5 | 11863.5 | 1.45 | |stall_6 | 11855.0 | -1.5 | |... | ... | ... |

The tool will read the highest and lowest value from the colum metres of center line. In this case it will read two values: 1.55 and -1.55 and start to rewrite the column like this: | position| distance| metres of center line | |:------------|:------------|:--------------------------| |stall_0 | 11906.0 | -1.55 | |stall_1 | 11897.5 | 1.55 | |stall_2 | 11889.0 | -1.55 | |stall_3 | 11880.5 | 1.55 | |stall_4 | 11872.0 | -1.55 | |stall_5 | 11863.5 | 1.55 | |stall_6 | 11855.0 | -1.55 | |... | ... | ... |

If desired, the user can change the vertical value (standard 8 metres) and also the left / right value (1.55 or -1.55).
