Trip Computer
The trip computer now works, for me so far, everytime except for once where there was a loading problem. A few people still have problems with this feature working. The TripComputer is just that, a calculation computer. In order for it to work, it needs all the starting data, the input data and then it makes a calculation. In V4, the loading process has been delayed, because if it starts before the GPS signal is active, it will not work. The problem people are having is that at the same time, the same reason that the 'nag screen' is there is that once the nag screen is present, it is then the right time to put your car in gear and drive off. If you drive off before, or before the GPS signal is present, you will not have a starting input for the computer to calculate and therefore the trip computer will not work. In my version, I have the nag screen removed, BUT I never move my car before a GPS signal is present because in the area that I live it is only 10-15 sec to receive a full signal, secondly, in the winter time or fall, I warm up my car, so by the time I get in, there is always a GPS signal present.
In my next updated release, I will have a new interface for the 'split screen' and the speedometer, that will incorporate the trip computer within the application with a touch of a button as this really is a valuable tool if people know how to use it to it's potential. I will put up some screens soon as the 'split screen has been redone and it is a lot more functional now than it ever was.
