Anti Lag/Late Start Online [Ro]

This code helps avoid lag or late starts in online races by starting the countdown as soon as all players are ready (When everyone sends the READY event).

Normally, the countdown can only start once the starting camera is finished. So, if you load in late, you'll send the "READY" event before the camera is done. The countdown will start for everyone else, but yours will be delayed until the camera finishes, causing you to start later than everyone else.

This code lets the countdown start as soon as everyone is ready, even if the camera isn’t done yet.

It’s a remake of MrBean’s (I believe) code from CTGP-R, and it works exactly the same. The code is safe and doesn’t cause any issues.

CTGPR checks for 0xB74 == 6 and 0xB70 == 7 through 0xA

CTGPR checks for 0xB74 == 6 and 0xB70 == 7 through 0xA

Ii originally checked 7 thru 0xA but all after 0xA are offline modes that have no countdown (not race), so no need to check

NTSC-J is definitely not working properly. It is starting the race instantly offline

Updated code. Can you please confirm it works now?

[Luigi Hack Fan]

Will do tomorrow

EDIT: Seems to work
