# User.RBRCustomReader

Custom Richard Burns Rally (RBR) data reader plugin for SimHub. This plugin adds new properties to be used by SimHub dashboards.

- RBRCustomReader.RSFCarName = The true car name as shown in Rallysimfans (RSF) car selection screens.

- RBRCustomReader.RSFCarID = RSF car ID (not the same as 0..7 car slot ID)

- RBRCustomReader.ExternalRaceTime = External race timer

## SimHub addon plugin installation:

- Close SimHub application

- Download the latest _SimHubPlugin_User.RBRCustomReader_versionTag.zip_ file from Releases page (see the right frame and Releases link)

- Extract the downloaded zip file or navigate inside of it using FileExplorer to see files in the zip file

- Copy _User.RBRCustomReader.dll_ file into the SimHub application folder (ie. the folder where you have SimHubWPF.exe. For example c:\apps\SimHub\ folder)

- Launch SimHub and it will probably notify you it detected a new addon plugin

  - Enable the _RBR Custom Reader_ plugin

  - No need to tick _Show in left menu_ option 

- The plugin should be now shown as enabled in _SimHub/Settings/Plugins_ tab page

 

## How to use new custom properties in SimHub dashboard layout

- Add a text object into SimHub dashboard layout and set the text object to use NCalc formula with RBRCustomReader.RSFCarName, RSFCarID or ExternalRaceTime property reference.

- You should see these custom properties (variables) in SimHub NCalc expression editor if you press "Insert property" button and search for "RBRCustomReader" properties.

- For example the following SimHub NCalc expression formats the external raceTimer to use precision of 2 decimals, no sign, zero minutes and hours are not shown:

  - toshorttime( [RBRCustomReader.ExternalRaceTime], 2, false, false )
