Adjust For Standings Error After Crash #138

Open SenorPez opened 7 years ago

SenorPez commented 7 years ago

If a car crashes and chooses "Retire To Pits," it can jump ahead in the standings. This is actually, in error, in the telemetry.

Add detection for this event and adjust the standings accordingly.

See race50 for an example.

There are a lot of potential pitfalls here, so I'm moving it out of the upcoming (and basically ready) 0.6 release. Car teleportation can happen for other reasons, you'd have to track every instance of this an adjust standings from the telemetry-fed values as long as those exist, and I think the testing right now would be too significant to guarantee a quality change.

For now, this is just a "known issue" with the quality of the telemetry feed.
