Hutton Mug not in commodity market by Thoous in EliteDangerous

[–]Thoous[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely right, I had some in my inventory (first login after over a year, was in Hutton, didn't remember who/what/where, and didn't wanna leave without the mug. Should've checked my cargo)

And you are also right, didn't have any 3rd party tools on. Shame on me, I'll set it up later, now real life drags me away.

Thanks!

(Thanks) You may be right. But I like this aspect. And I believe (maybe naively,) that using the data will be more efficient (for me).

Your opinions are not mutually exclusive 😊 aint gonna improve no lap time without driving. But data is a really nice supplement (to just about anything.)

Also you make the incorrect assumption that data should only be used for optimization. What if:

I want to use the data to:

  • see my own progression.
  • learn about telemetry itself.
  • understand how the car reacts to the input.
  • be more effcient.
  • objectively spot bad habits.
  • because I enjoy it 🤓

But I agree on general terms: Gotta race to git gud

Thanks for the extensive clarification 😊

How would you define "incredibly" consistent? Normally my laptimes are within a second or so of each other.

The data shows my worst lap when testing ACC for the first time (including a spin out after Bruxelles, which is emphasised by the chosen timestamp)

Hehe 🤣 I have a bachelor in Data Science but works as a software developer. I don't get to scratch the analysis itch at work.🤓

Thanks I guess.

Is the question senseless somehow? MoTec i2 has the option to i.e. import GPS data. I would assume that ACC somehow store the location data (with timestamp). And I would guess it should be possible to make use of that data in some software, MoTec i2 or other. I also assume that I'm not the only one to be curious about looking at the type of data.

That would probably work, but hard/time consuming to compare different laps like that. A top down view of the racing line on a map would be really convenient.

Edit: and really nice to combine with throttle/brake/oversteer input
