Race distance gone
« on: 15 Jan 2015, 07:25 »
I thought there was some way of making an estimate of distance gone in a race in V8 but cannot find it.

Grateful if someone could remind me please.

I use an estimate and it's pretty accurate for Flat and errors on the cautious side for jumps as they run a little longer than flat over the same distance.

market length / 100 * 6 works out to more or less the race time.

work out elapsed time.

elapsed time / race time gives a fraction of completed race so far.

This works out fine for me as I don't do anything after 0.25 distance for now.


((now_time - event_off) * mf_second)/(market_length/100 * 6)

Retyped above from memory, there might be errors .. please check and test.

beware .. place markets don't have market_length.
Fortune favors the brave!
