Great job, thanks a lot.
Trying 0.9.3 now.Ideas for development: is it possible to add an option in the menu to pick the individual races?
For example, a list where you just tick the box for the races you want it run, like so:
[ ] 5 min Tsukuba
[ ] 5 min Indy
[ ] 5 min Monza
[ ] 10 min SSR5
[ ] 10 min High Speed Ring
[ ] 10 min Tokyo R246
[x] 20 min Suzuka
[x] 20 min Daytona
[ ] 20 min Trial Mountain
A similar list for choosing which friends from your list it picks would be great too.. but don't know if that's possible?
Anyway, just ideas, don't know how easy it is to add that stuff..

Started 0.9.3, it ran one race, then it gets stuck on "race ended" message. Won't start another one. No error messages in the log.
Tried this a few times, it always got stuck.
Then I logged on to granturismo.com, ran one race from there. Then restarted widget, it started a race.. and another one.. and another.. so seems to be running now. So after I ran one race from gt.com, it doesn't get stuck on that "race ended" message. Let's see how this goes..

You folks having a issue are you certain your PC isn't falling asleep and shutting down your net connection when it does so? I had that happen to me and changed my PC settings so it doesn't sleep and have 0 issues with the program working now.
Great job yonis!

i got this, it was racing before then it raced after wards too but now its stuck on selecting drivers, great widget though
Just got home, no race running as I suspected, the widget was stuck at selecting drivers & the log is pasted below. It says a race started at 12:58 & that appears to be the last race run, then there are no further entries. I reloaded the widget & 1 race ran fine, but then all my drivers are in use so it's now waiting again...

I'm not the most programmer-minded person in the world, and I cant find anything related to my question in search, so here goes for all you guys with more knowledge:
Would anyone monitoring the gran-turismo.com servers actually be able to see that a 3rd party program is being used to 'log in' and run races? Or would it just look like the host is constantly starting a race after another finishes? With the amount of people using the widget (including myself
) I would imagine if they had seen anything automated they would have said something? Just curious.

Update: Haven't got the RACING phase hang again, but I am getting the same RACE ENDED hang as some of the other members here. Ran for several hours last night before the hang, ran for 2 races today before the hang. Reloading the widget gets it resynchronized, so no big deal. Possibly add a timer to that phase as well?

Mine kept freezing and not giving any debug message, so I went and downloaded the newest version and its working better now. the old one was 32.1kb and the new one is 67.8kb.

Quick Suggestion, if its not to hard to program in.
Since there is a "leave 1 driver free" option, is there a way to program it so you can create a manual override for that feature? Say I have 2 accounts and I want to run every available Bob from my other account, I can type in my other accounts name so it ignore the rule.

i did a 12hour+ run last night with the version from 2-3 days ago, just updated it again & will prob leave it running for 18hours or so. thank you yonis for making this amazing app also thank you to everyone who is now on my friends lists & use my drivers, almost made me 1million in less than 24 hours.
