RADAR

OVERLAYS

Who's alongside, who's catching you from behind and which slow car is ahead.

RADAR puts three warnings in a single overlay: the blind spot on each side, the cars catching you from behind, and the slow or stopped car ahead. With no traffic nearby it draws nothing, and each of the three warnings can be switched on or off separately.

RADAR
RADAR: the blind-spot bars on the sides and, at the top, the car catching you with its number and the gap in seconds. Screenshot of version 3.87.29, with test data.

What RADAR brings

With your reference lap

Several overlays work with your reference-lap CSV.

With their command line

Like everything in the suite, the AI can read and use them.

Your AI spotter

If you race with PLIA as your spotter, it understands what your overlays show and tells you.

What it does

Blind spot

A bar on each side with a marker that moves with the real distance of the car next to you.

Early warning

If someone is closing in fast and the side isn't known yet, both bars light up as outlines.

Who's catching you

Cars gaining on you from behind, three by default, with number, surname and seconds. A car running your pace doesn't trigger it.

Slow car ahead

A bar with the metres left to it: orange if it's slow, red if it's stopped and green if it has gone off the track.

What it doesn't do

  • It doesn't know how far to the side each car is. The simulator gives the side once the car is almost level with you.
  • It doesn't warn you about cars you're catching ahead, unless they're slow or stopped.
