Changes in this version from the previously published version
Features:
- Add the GAP2025 scoring formula (see Section 7F of the FAI sporting code, 2025 edition, for details). Of the changes listed in S7F, #9, #10 & #11 are yet to be implemented (alternative algorithms for geodesic calculations, transformations and route optimization).
This does not affect the results noticeably, and will be implemented in a future release. - Option to store competition settings as a template, and apply that template again on future competitions. This reduces the need to set up the same competition settings again and again, for example in a competition series like a league.
Improvements:
- New header and footer templates for result reports. This way you only need to modify one file to add your own logos to the results.
- Option to not open result reports, to speed up the process of creating results. This is set in Tools – Options.
- Fix nation code handling: Write IOC nation code in its own attribute (nat_code_ioc) instead of writing wrong data into the ISO code attribute. Then use the IOC code for all result reports.
- Improved the new landing detection, to reduce the number of false positives (landing detected when pilot was still flying). This is now the default, but can be turned off in Tools – Options.
- Category pre-definition in competition settings: If the category is a traditional filter category: Define which category is the basis.
For example, in the Swiss Open, the “Swiss Sports Class” can now be defined to be filtered out of “Sports Class”, which is calculated as its own competition. - When changing a pilot’s values for attributes that are used to define categories or teams: Throw away all existing results.
- Update GpsDump to version 5.48
Bug fixes:
- For time validity, make sure we use BestTime in all cases. Previously, in PG, it could happen that the time of somebody who didn’t reach goal was used.
- Right click on pilot in task view: Select that pilot first, then open the context menu.
- Creating a new task without a waypoint file caused a crash.
- Task results filter without any selection caused a crash.
- Category names: Replace special characters (e.g. “/”) before using them in result file names.
- Penalty 14% was given as 14.00000000001% in the results reports, due to rounding errors. This is now fixed.
- Crash when scoring with predefined categories if a category had 0 participants. This is now fixed.
- Pilot with GPS problems is showing in Goal, but with 0 distance! This is now fixed.
- In the task view: double-click on pilot (to make changes to that pilot), confirm changes with OK: selected the previous task. This is now fixed.
- The entry form for the result details can be hidden behind other windows. This is now fixed, the entry form is now always on top.
- Logos are missing from result reports. This is now fixed, the logos are now included in the report templates.
- Jump the gun does not work in Elapsed Time tasks. This is now fixed, jump the gun is now correctly applied in all task types.
- In some cases, depending on Windows display settings, the window for defining teams did not show its contents completely. This is now fixed.
