- If data in an entries.ini file is longer than the intended field, it could cause a problem. Fixed.
- Made some progress in fixing the “busy clipboard problem.” In doing this we had to make some changes to the
RunScore editor. Now the blue, vertical line does not appear when you first open a file but as you work on it, the blue line will appear. Steven Keith was key to this improvement. He was able to find cases that failed fairly often.
- At request of Marek Blazek from the Czech Republic, changed import of database to allow other
than comma as the delimiter. When RunScore discovers that a file does not have a comma in the header, it requests the user to enter what delimiter the file uses. If the delimiter is the tab character, you enter the word “tab”. If you import from a listing file, you can set the “Import delimiter” according to the type of file.
- Have stopped shipping the special version of Notepad.exe. It was causing some problems. Instead you can now use
the normal Windows Notepad or use another editor. To use another editor, set its location in Preferences. If you don’t specify another editor, the Windows Notepad will be used by default.
- Often a data entry person types over the Unregistered Runner entry, often called the “bandit” entry. This can
cause lots of problems. There are now protections. If you DO want to change the entry, you will be warned (twice) about what you are about to do. This feature was requested by Steven Keith.
- At request of Bill Teschek add command “Laps to Rounds.” This moves multiple finishes by a
runner in a LAPS event into subsequent events based on which lap has been completed. This is done automatically in a chip race but this command is to fix problems such as a runner not crossing a mat on a given lap. The time can be inserted and the Laps to Rounds command run to reassign the various laps,
- Marek Blazek from the Czech Republic requested that the Event to Database PLACE command work
for lap races. The place is computed by determining the order by laps finished and for those with the same number of laps, based on time. Done.
- Fixed a problem with auto-alignment pointed out by Mike Moore. When inserting bandits, the last
bib was turned into a bandit instead of moving down one slot.
- At request of Andrés Alanon Vazquez made a change to Announce so that if Net Time is specified, the number of laps displayed is one less to account for the initial passing. Also, the time is computed by subtracting each runner’s initial passing from the most recent one.
- Made a change to HTML output so that the results are as they were with RSW if the CSS file runscore.css is not found. In addition, you can now have a “local” *.css file in a race directory called entries.css.
- Brad Pickle pointed out that you could no longer close an external timer without leaving RunScore. Fixed.
