Struggling with first app

Hi all,

I trying to create a simple app, but falling at the first hurdle.

I first create the most simple app, just the three imports, acmain and setting the app with header and size.

This initially works, but if I do something simple, such as some functions, it stops loading with no errors in pylog.txt.
I then try deleting the folder and non of the python apps load.

It's odd as the log.txt shows that it has 18 apps to load and they all fail.
What's really odd it shows the previous three attempts, which have been deleted, so AC or CM is holding an idea on them.

When I first tried, I got sim info loaded and it was all working, with any errors in the pylog.txt, but now nothing.

What I did get when it stopped working was the following error in log. Txt.

ERROR: Python ERROR LOADING MODULE :sys.path.append(<app path>).


Not on my pc now, but can certainly get more info for tomorrow.

aka leBluem aka Please Stop This
when loading "sim_info.py"
you also need the ctype libs imported correctly first
you probably miss those?
stdlib\_ctypes.pyd
stdlib64\_ctypes.pyd

an app that has them, just copy from there:
assettocorsamods.net

InvalidateLap

AC has this value in "...\Documents\Assetto Corsa\cfg\race.ini" or better "...\assettocorsa\cfg\race.ini" [LAP_INVALIDATOR] ALLOWED_TYRES_OUT=2 But offline you cannot set it below 2 to have the lap invalidated with only one tyre out: I hope i...

Thanks for the reply, I did have these in place.

It seems that it will work and then I change one line, like add a ac.log and it all falls apart.

Currently my other apps are working, but I just get the ever helpful.

ERROR: Python ERROR LOADING MODULE :sys.path.append('apps/python/desktopSwitcher')

Here is the code as it is, as it's crazy how it just breaks and gives me no info.


Python:

else:
    sysdir=os.path.dirname(__file__)+'/lib/stdlib'
sys.path.insert(0, sysdir)
os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ";."

strange, you know python is quite serious about white spaces
ie you should not mix tabs and spaces

Also I changed this line from

ac.log("desktopSwitcher: minimised = " + str(minimised))
to
ac.setText(lbl_session, "Current session: {}".format(returnSessionName(currentSession)))

And this stopped all my Python apps from loading, and changing it back does not fix it..

Arrrghhh

Ok, I am calming down now.. Seems that I have gotten to a place where I don't destroy my Python apps every time.

I have a question around the acUpdate function, does this only update when you are moving along the track? What triggers it?

This is my acUpdate() and it's not firing, or at least I'm not getting any output.
Python: 
def acUpdate(deltaT):
    #Global Variables
    global currentSession, desktop
    #Global Fields
    global lbl_desktop, lbl_session
    
    session = sm.graphics.session
    ac.log("desktopSwitcher: acUpdate, session = " + str(session))
    if session != currentSession:
        currentSession = session;
        ac.setText(lbl_session, "Current session 2: {}".format(returnSessionName(currentSession)))

Hey dude, thank you.

Python is not my first language.. :(

Of course I changed this and python apps don't load anymore.

After having to kill CM and restart, the apps are working, but I'm still not seeing anything changing

Should have the ac.log command worked in acUpdate? Just so I know it's working.
