slicedsilver / irduino Goto Github PK

Remove extra screen number in combo box.

Quick info for Lights.
Add options to the quick info list like: "current fuel level (+show on leds)".
have the code to display the leds. (showTimedStringLights function).

Use in conjugation with Engine Warning temp lights. Have a requested waitLights and just before sending to the arduino then check for waitLights bool and if true then change the lights according using the waitLights bytes. Have a bool for allowing pass-though lights.

The first time that the application is run it should display a "welcome" 👋 screen. The screen will give links to the documentation pages, links to the getting started page, and warn that the TM1638 library must be installed if using those displays. This screen will stop displaying when there is a valid current.opt file in the directory. The current.opt will store the current selected configuration, the last version of the application used. If the last version used is different to the current version then show the "What's New!!" window. 🆕

Metro themes.

Create the iRacing forum topic. This will be the main announcement of the project. Be sure to grab the first few replies for further use. 🚗 🚗

Complete the GitHub page.

For use with generic arduino sketches.
have a enum of possible vars to output and a property to fetch them, just like the sdk wrapper.

High Engine Temperature Warning on DX SLI Display Unit
🔥 🚒
Warning string: ET HIgH

Flash text on screen and set lights red.
Need to choose which screen to show on.
Flash for 5 seconds then leave lights on and only display text again in 30 seconds time.
Add option to only show on certain LEDs

Receive postion sensor data from the Arduino and use it in the Vjoy controller.

Allow the user to specify that, for example, the lights on unit 1 show the TPS. Maybe a good way to program this would to have the option on the screen page so that each screen can have a custom variable. Move FFB lights to this screen.

Create an Ardunio ino template file. In the header specify that this won't compile and describe the string token that shows a place where generated code is placed when generating the Arduino sketch in the application. 📄

On the screen configuration pages. When the Clear button is pressed it does not clear the second display variable which remains as "space". 👾

And fix the tooltips in the advanced options window

Use VJoy and its sdk. Useful for button box. 🎮

embed fonts such as the Metro fonts into the application so that the visual experience is similar on all machines. 🔤

GitHub Pages Background. Place a watermark type image in the top right corner and add an overall tactile tile background.

newScreen -= newScreen

Use buttons wired directly to the Arduino. Uses standard button functions.

Ask for whether to use pullup resistor. Can choose custom pin option in arduino generation. then code will look like buttons[8] = 0; //Replace 0 with your custom code

e.g. buttons[8] = gpio.DigitalRead(1,14);

EDIT: Set pins in configuration page.

Detect when a car is alongside the drivers car.
Can be used to light a specific led on the dash (choose which one or two), light an arduino light (pin).
Can be outputted to generic arduino

Changing number of screens causes the page to jump and the tree to select the wrong page to continue with.

Use the custom header in the screen preview. Useful for testing custom header string.

As a sub option of arduino/expander options. Allow setup of rotary switches (NOT encoders yet). Asks for a function such as set screen, etc.. and asks for number of positions and asks for the pins of each position. Checks when saving if conflict with other pins is detected.

Title is chopped off on the right

Button 8 which unit says all when it should be blank for new configs, etc...

Background of main window can be as is at the start and then fade to white within 3 seconds of opening. Once the start button is pressed then it can fade back in. And when stopped then fade out.

Add support for fergotech components. Brake Vib, SimWind, Simlights. Include a donate message and button on options page.

So that the Arduino IDE doesn't complain when first opening the generated file. Should check to see if the save location is already valid and if not then create the folder and save the ino file inside that folder.

Hello, I found your code for obtaining iRacing telemetry data on Github. I want to DIY a dashboard and need to obtain iRacing telemetry data, but I don’t have a parsing document for iRacing shared memory. Could you please give me? Looking forward to your help

💥 Check for conflicting options such as specifying an Arduino pin for both input and output. Does check before saving configuration and warns the user.

Make the project installable using clickonce. 🎇

An advanced option.
Allow user to select number of laps to calculate the average with. Also allow the user to de/select whether to use the weighted calculation.

Create an iRacing "man" logo for the iRacing forum button on the GH page.

Have a quick info display that shows the change in delta time for the past 5 seconds.

🔅 🔆
Use LEDs directly wired to Arduino as an output for various things.

"Use inverted logic?" Option.
Status LED option. Include that in Output Variables list.
Ideas for possible outputs: Status, Brake Lock, Car Alongside, Engine Temp Warning, Shift Now, FFB Clipped

Integrate into Fergotech Brake Vibration component.
Can be used to display a pattern on the leds or arduino led or to generic arduino

Arduino CLI CMD Uploading. 💻

Fuel Resetting bug in oval cars. Use InPitLane and speed < 10 as additional checks for refueling.

Set a default value for warning time so that existing configs are updated correctly.

Code a new serial data format that allows more than one different type of message to be sent. Split LEDS and Segments for TM Units messages. Each message should have its own arduino function for decoding. Need a queue system for sending serial messages that works with threading.

Proposed Serial Format

StartByte1 255
MessageID ANY Number
:
:
MessageData
:
:
Checksum includes messageID and Data
MessageLength length
EndByte 180

How to read it

Use current method of storing the serial buffer. When an incoming byte equals endbyte then using messageLength find the startByte. If found then read in the message (MessageID and MessageData) and do the checksum calculation. If the checksum is valid then pass the messageData to the correct function using the messageID for selecting the function via a switch statement.

7️⃣ Control a 7-segment display. Can display gear and other single digit variables.

Configuration page asks for pin for each segment part.

Should be a sub-option of arduino outputs and i/o expanders.

🎋 Tree:
-- Arduino Outputs
|---Arduino Pins
| |--7 Segment

---I/O Expanders
|--MCP23016
|--General Outputs 1
|--7 segment

Option to type keyboard messages. This will be a button function. Have some predefined options in the droplist and an option called "[[Custom Message]]" When this is selected then it opens a dialog window which describes how it all works and allows the user to fill in a message in a textbox. If ok clicked then add that to the items list and select it else selection to -1.

When loading page add current string to the dropdown list before binding.

edit: iRacing is adding this in the new build. May not be needed. Include more keys on the keyboard for the key press button function.

Finish all the documentation for the Wiki pages. 📘 📗 📙

Can output variables from the sdk to an arduino function. Converting, sending and decoding is handled by the application. User can use the variables generated in the arduino sketch to create custom things. Help button that creates a dialog window explaining how it works. Maybe ask for a text file of code to insert during arduino sketch generation. ///code starts here ///code ends here (in sketch).
Can set an resolution for each variable (how many bytes to use when encoding for serial message).

Have a enum of possible vars to output and a property to fetch them, just like the sdk wrapper.

Add tooltips 💬 to the entire application. These tooltips should give a brief explanation of the control below the cursor. Try to keep concise. Detailed information will be included in the wiki.

Integrate a better exception error window with reporting. Use an existing .net library for this.
