Getting Started

1. Open a web browser.
2. Navigate to the hosted URL of the application.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following:

• A computer or device with internet access.
• CSV files containing race results.

Defining Team Logins

Before uploading race results, you must define the logins for the team members. Follow these steps:

Locate the Input Fields:

You will find two input fields labeled "Red Team Logins" and "Blue Team Logins".

Entering Logins:

Input the logins for each team in a comma-separated format. Example:

• For the Red Team, enter: login1, login2, login3
• For the Blue Team, enter: login4, login5, login6

Important Note: The standard files produced by the game after each race do not specify which team the logins belong to. Therefore, it's crucial to accurately assign logins to their respective teams in this step.

Validation:

Ensure that there are no extra spaces or characters in the logins. This will help avoid discrepancies when processing race results.

Uploading Race Results

Once team logins are defined, you can upload the race results:

Locate the File Input:

Find the "Upload CSV File" input field.

Select the CSV File:

Click on the "Choose File" button. Select the CSV file generated after the race. Ensure the file is in the correct format.

Process the Results:

Click the "Process Results" button to analyze the uploaded file.

File Format:

The expected CSV file format should contain the following columns:

• Finish Position: Numeric value indicating the rank of the login.
• Race Time (ms): Total race time in milliseconds.
• Login: The login identifier for the racer.

Viewing Results
