Hello

I use your WONDERFUL flagman util and it rocks.

However since I also use FOVED to "zoom" my view angle the pitboard is
completely to the side and unreadable.

Is there a way to "center" the pitboard again or to adjust it's lateral
position on the screen ?

Thanks.

thanks.  it works for me :)  i wanted to add a track manager, but GEM+
has that covered.

i have the same problem.

welll...as I recall, the 2 variables that could be adjusted affected
the pit board guy's position (distance from the start finish line) and
also his stance relative to the track (left to right).  i think you
could move him closer to the road's edge, but i am unsure of the
zooming effect for the pitboard.

i need to find the original specs of that file and play with his
left-right position.

in the meantime i've been using the left/right***pit view to see the
guy as he flashes by.  its a touch of realism that makes it much more
difficult, imo.  well, gpl remains a challenge so I guess thats to be
expected.

i will see if I can find that document and play with the settings.  I
assume though that the authors of GPLSA and FOVED, etc, already have
tried this, so I don't hold out a lot of hope for it to work.

Regards all,
istoff
