New feature: animated tickers with position swap animations!This alpha release is a first test for supporting animated tickers. Please be aware there can still be issues and report any wrong behavior.
Theme Editor updates:Introducing Animated Tickers: a new variant of the ticker functionality that supports position swap animations!
- Animated Tickers can be used instead of the regular Ticker functionality. Enable them under the Ticker category and checking Enabled on the Animated Ticker properties. Note you have to disable the regular Ticker first.
- Animated Tickers also have built-in support for a "split tower" which is a combined static and paging tower. You can choose how many items out of the total are "paging". The paging items show at the bottom of the tower and will cycle through the remaining entries at the specified update interval time. By default no items are paging and the tower only shows a static number of items. Note that the position swap animation only works on the static part of the tower, and not on the paging part, by design.
- Note that Animated Tickers will not update their items when new drivers join the session. The items are only built once when the ticker is started (either on theme start or via the Ticker - Start action). To get new drivers to show up, restart the ticker.
- Animated Tickers are a little bit more limited than regular tickers: (1) they only support the "standings" dataset. (2) they cannot scroll. (3) there is no proper support for header/footer items yet. (4) some ticker actions may not be functional.
ATVO updates:Remote race control incidents and messages will now also be synced to other connected remote ATVO clients. For proper functionality, make sure the main ATVO instance is the server for both Remote Race Control as well as the server for other remote ATVO clients.
