Since I am making my own cockpit and dash in SimHub and encountered some problems, I compiled my questions into on thread. Engine mapping (MAP) seems not to work in any dash not even the ingame dashboards. Is there a variable that SimHub correctly grabs the Fuel map HIGH/LOW/MEDIUM or is this just work in progress? What would be a threshold for a critical water temperature so I can indicate it with a flashing warning? What would be a threshold for a critical oil temperature? What does Boost do and can it be grabbed in SimHub? There seem to be hard coded keyboard hooks that prevent me from remapping certain keys. While I understand that ESCAPE or BACKSPACE cannot be mapped (they have functions in menus) it is harder to understand why for example NUM-4 and NUM-6 seem to be to look left and right. they will be active when the game is paused and trigger even when I map them to another function. It's as if there are two different keyboard loops. I wonder if that behavior is defined somewhere? Is there a list of hard coded, undocumented keyboard commands?
And something of a different type The Nissan R390 GT1 reaches a maximum speed of only 295 kph I noticed the same behavior with the Ginetta G58. Both could be caught by GT3 cars while in reality top speed should be way in excess of 300kph (wikipedia says 350 kph for the Nissan). Was there ever a consensus why those cars are so slow or why was it not listed as something to look into?
The best advice I can give is to download, install and edit some dashes to learn how they're made, that's a good way to understand how things works in SimHub and how it integrates with specific games. I'm kinda in the same boat as you but changing "my own" dashes with others i love, like Love Dashboard, PS Dash, TWF Dash, Hervé Dash, zerobandwidth universal dash (not fully compatible with AMS2) and of course some Wotever dashes like AIM MXS and Mytec. I'm using and old Motorola G7 to display dashes in its unusual 19:9 screen ratio but other ratios functions too. Finally, my preference goes to have a single dash for every car. Last but not least take a look at SH Discord channel. Edit: AMS2 telemetry don't pass MAP settings Edit2: Usual temp threshold are 120°C for water and 130°C for oil, but I may be wrong, please check when they alert in game hud. Edit3: Consider to add Clutch info warnings
Yes I also edit some dashboards first. I managed to add ERS Mode and Percentage to TWF Pure Racing Dashboard but in the long run I want to make my own. Well I did not see any alerts for that so I want to make my own. Basically I want to make a dashboard that flashes "OIL TEMP", "WATER TEMP", "ENGINE DAMAGE", "TYRES" or of course "LOW FUEL". I can use those numbers you gave and put them in, changing them later is easy. Bummer about the MAP setting, but it is what it is I guess. What do you mean with "Clutch info warnings"?
