New features in the works

onRails already turns setup work into a structured process instead of guesswork and encompasses all that I envisioned at the start of this project.

addedI've already begun building SimReader Auto-Capture. This new system takes more of the busywork off your hands while you drive. You just get to complete laps, and onRails will automatically capture the time and sector splits for the last three laps you complete. These will show up as chips next to the lap time field in onRails, ready to select. Tire temps at sector 1, sector 2, and the finish line work the same way, whether captured automatically or grabbed with a hotkey mid-session. The Setup Developer Tool pulls from the same feed, so lap times and tire temps pre-fill without you typing anything in. Prefer to trigger it yourself? A toggle in Settings switches Auto-Capture to hotkey-only.

onRails already turns setup work into a structured process instead of guesswork and encompasses all that I envisioned at the start of this project. However, I'm not done making onRails even better, and I've got the first update nearly complete:

RaceRoom Racing Experience gets full sim reader support in the same release. Connect RRE, and onRails reads your session the same way it does for every other supported sim. I'm also building a sim reader for Assetto Corsa Evo, and hope to have it ready at the same time, or soon after.

I'm aiming to get all of this, plus any bug fixes, into your hands about a month after the onRails release.

None of it requires you to do anything. It lands in onRails as each piece ships, and is just the beginning of a long post-launch development plan I have for onRails.

Want early access before it ships? I'm looking for drivers to test SimReader Auto-Capture and RaceRoom support before the update goes out. Join the onRails Discord and I'll get you set up.
