Re: [Supertuxkart-devel] GSoC'13 Race History Verifier

[M G. <aur...@gm...>]

Hi,

welcome to SuperTuxKart.

The current replay files are currently mainly used to debug physics, and as
such may not contain all of the information you need. Therefore, part of
the race history verifier project would likely involve extending the race
history recorder to contain more necessary information

The proposal should briefly identify the problems, give a high-level of the
algorithms that will be used to solve the problems, and a rough
implementation plan split in milestones with time estimates

And you can certainly give us an example proposal for a high-level review.
If you want the review to be private please mention it will giving it to us
