Boost control by gear

Users are asking for boost control by gear

Will be a very good idea, boost control by gear, with for example button activation. It's like second boost map in better.
In the multi map world , it's the most important , have less boost in some condition ( rain, daily driving, if we let our wife driving....)

@ElDominio how does gear comes into boost?

a 1x6 table of anything? a 32x6 table of anything?

[ElDominio]

Best way IMO is to have (number of gears)x1, 2D table that applies a correction factor per gear to duty cycle if open loop, or an adder that changes boost target if closed loop

[Benjamin-neo]

6x8 is enough, gear vs rpm. close and open loop map are 8*8.
Duty cycle if open loop, target limiter if close loop.
like antilag, it will be nice to have "always on" , "activate by pin"

If said car doesn't have have a gear indicator how would boost by gear even work. I personally think I should be based off vss if there isn't any way of the car knowing what gear it is in.

If you know VSS, you know gear, after calibrating gear ratios.

Open loop % modifier exists
