The scoreboard is blocking the view in the end being in the last positions and turning to the right.
I hope you are able to find a good alternitive for that.
Think of showing only the difference between you and the not safe positions.
Then only show the scoreboard after finishing!

Thinking about it, is it about the scoreboard popping up while driving, or could it be that it's simply too big and obstructive in the first place?

Originally I made the scoreboard the same width as the original one; it's just taller with a bit of a lighter background. But I guess the original scoreboard would block the view if it appeared while driving as well. So I believe the main issue lies in the scoreboard itself being too big.

Though, I also believe it's disturbing that the scoreboard appears midst of driving. When Laps gets supported, I kinda want to show the scoreboard throughout the whole race. It'll show pretty much all the information you need. It's kinda the case already when someone DNFs, since it may result in a free round. Still, as an alternative, we could perhaps toggle it with the TMGery button the same way as the status bar. That way, you can disable the obstructing UI if you want (technically you already can disable all UI, but let's ignore that).

So what I suggest:

  • Make the scoreboard smaller and more compact with a more transparent background (more similar to the status bar)
  • Have two ways of displaying the scoreboard using the TMGery button:
    • Red: Hide the scoreboard while driving (will not show in TA or Laps)
    • Green: Always show

(At some point it might be wise to have UI to enable/disable other UI elements per user preference, but that will be for another day...)

Think of showing only the difference between you and the not safe positions.

This is covered here: #14
