06 - Circuit Tools - macOS Map

Map Overview

The Map pane shows both the circuit overlay and the line taken by the selected lap(s).

The software will automatically select the trace from the fastest lap and display it when a file is loaded. You can chose a second lap to compare against in the Laps area (you can select a maximum of 2 laps for comparison). If you have loaded multiple files, the fastest lap from each file (maximum of 2) will automatically be selected and displayed for comparison.

The fastest lap, or if only one lap is selected, will have a green trace, the second lap will have a red trace.

The vehicle position is identified as a red cross X cursor on the map. Moving the cursor in the Graph area will also move the cursor in the Map area.


There are a series of buttons and other operations as shown below.

Alternatively, you can load a custom circuit overlay (.cir file) that you have previously created or that has been created for you. You can find more information on this here.

 

Start / Finish Line

Selecting the More CT Mac More.jpg button will open a window where you can move the start/finish line or add a separate finish line. You can do this by using the mouse to Left-click on the location of the circuit you wish to move the start/finish line to. Using Shift + Left Click will move the finish line only. Selecting Apply will save the changes.
