Team telemetry tools

Teamtactics

This application is intended to collect realtime telemetry from iRacing team members during a team event.

Problem

Some of the telemetry data in iRacing is delayed for all currently not driving team members because of anti-cheat reasons. This affects some data which is needed to calculate driving tactics, especially

• but not only - fuel data.

Solution

If all team members are running the teamtactics client, the following telemetry data is collected and aggregated into a cloud server:

• LapCompleted
• LapLastLapTime
• Driver Customer-ID
• FuelUsed
• FuelLevel
• OnPitRoad
• TrackTemp
• PitSvFlags
• SessionTime
• PlayerCarTowTime
• PitRepairLeft
• PitOptRepairLeft
• SessionTimeOfDay when entering/exiting pits and stop/start moving in pits
• TrackLocations
• Flags

With this information the team's strategy can be calculated based on near realtime data. A client which makes use of this data is subject of another project.

Configuration and usage

[DEFAULT]

[global]
# Each team member has to configure its own iRacing ID here
iracingId = <your iRacingId>

# Proxy configuration. The given URL will be used as Proxy on both http and 
# https protocol
;proxy = <Proxy URL>

## The following options are for development/debugging only. 
# Generates additional debug output. Comment out or set to yes/True to enable
;debug = yes

# Logfile to which data is written in debug mode 
logfile = irtactics.log

# Uncomment to start the application using a data dump file from irsdk for 
# testing/development purposes. The dump file can be created by issuing the 
# command 'irsdk --dump data.dmp'
;simulate = data/monzasunset.dump

[connect]
# Fill in the client access token from your TeamTactics profile at
# https://iracing-team-tactics.appspot.com/profile
clientAccessToken =

# URL where the client send its messages to - usually no subject to change
postUrl       = noFallback
