What is fixed dwell for if you have RPM-based dwell with a 2D table? Just make the "curve" on the table straight. No need for the added complexity.

No complexity has been added, really. "else if (setting) {value = setting}" is not really any complexity at all. The if/else block is already there, etc. Plus, the future is in not having fixed data sources for anything. It's just a (small) step in the right direction. Later you'll have your dwell mapped in 3d, with your chosen axes, if you want. etc.BenFenner wrote:What use is an RPM-based dwell 2D table if all you need is a number? Just select the constant in the settings and don't bother confirming that 16 cells are all what you need. Why change 16 values instead of just one, if you need to adjust it? No need for the added complexity.

Re: Fred's firmware development diary comments thread
Your second quote threw me for a loop for a second. No way did I say that?
I'm talking about complexity at every level. The firmware, the tuner software including GUI, the human's thought process in dealing with it.
If it is temporary, then I don't care. If 3D table is the end result, there's no need for the 2D table or constant when all is said and done. Intermediary stuff I'm indifferent to.

Don't be so selfish/short sighted. :-)
You have X memory. You have Y features. If you have some of the X assigned to each Y hard coded, then you are very limited on quantity of Y and size of each X. If on the other hand you only assign X to Y when Y is being used and when Y is being used in such a way that it needs a big chunk of X, then you can do MUCH more, much more flexibly and better for everyone.
You do not have to tell me to keep the config simple. Open up MS2E or MS3 config and get lost in the sea of unexplained terms and bullshit settings. I'm ALL FOR minimal settings. It's under control.
And by that I mean focus on adding value in the idle and/or accel and/or other "tell me what you think" threads rather than costing me typing time on stuff that I have under absolute control.

If I tell you to fuck off when you PM me, would that help?I failed on the no PMs thing. I will try harder to tell people to fuck off tomorrow.

Re: Fred's firmware development diary comments thread
Yeah it should make it easier, I noticed xgate failed with your example. I suspect it will "just work" with newer binutils?make TEST_AND_SAVE_ALL

You have a short memory, it fails on purpose, remember?
