Races

Race 1 – Back to Pareco

The AutoSplitter will start the timer once you undock from Garden Ring. It will enforce docking at the race’s stations in the correct order. After 20 minutes you get one last stop, then the timer will pause and reset once you dock back at Garden Ring.

There are two settings:

• Write the number of stops to a file, e.g. for a stream overlay: Does exactly that. You can find the file in My Documents, the full path will be in the tooltip. Disabled by default.
• Automatically reset when docking back at Garden Ring: Automatically reset when you have finished a run and dock back at Garden Ring. Enabled by default.
• Automatically stop the timer after death: Automatically stop the timer should you meet an untimely demise. Disabled by default.

Note: If your next stop is Garden Ring when the time limit is reached, you will either have to reset LiveSplit manually after docking there or re-dock to have the AutoSplitter reset it for you.

Race 2 – The Aquarian Job

The AutoSplitter will start the timer once you undock from London Relay. It will enforce doing all steps in the corret order. There is no sane way to check for the distance requirements around Cooper Arena; as long as you land/take off within ~50 km of the settlement, you will get a split.

There is one settings:

• Automatically reset when refuelling or repairing: Automatically reset when you Refuel or repair, since that is against the rules. Disabled by default.
