    My apologies for getting frustrated. I shouldn’t have done that. This is bit on info-dump. I’m not the best at expressing myself and so some parts may not be clear. Please feel fre…

    >Ada has a neglected dialect and a proprietary dialect What on earth are you on about? That’s not the case. Ada 2022 has been released and Ada 202x is getting improvements. Those f…

    > we genuinely can only laugh at people That's perhaps not the best wording. Nonetheless, I do agree with you. D can be very flexible in that regard.

    I'll try to get some website up in the future!

    It's very much the same in Australia. The approval I got from the engineer was due to the following points: 1. The 6 speed came out of a newer generation of the model. 2. My contro…

    That really sucks :(

    If my car relied heavily on CAN (like the next generation Commodore) I probably would have sold it. I love CAN bus (for my own designs), but I don't see the effort of attempting to…

    Thank you! I agree, the syntax is much clearer than C++. The very first prototype was in C++, but I found myself frequently frustrated with the language. I find D's features make m…

    As of current, no. I'm not sure where I want to go with this project.

    Definitely. If you come from a C-family background it feels quite familiar.

    I was quite surprised, too. Maybe it was a little gift from Holden to the burnout bogans? 1. My apologies, I've confused you. CAN communications are purely internal for my system, …

    I plan to keep it for a while yet!

    1. I don't interface to my car's electronics over serial or CAN bus. Instead, I interface by emulating actuators and sensors the 4 speed gearbox computer expects. 2. I'd like to in…

    Thank you! I spend a tonne of time in the reference manual for the 6 speed, and things clicked for what my next steps should be. It was really about trying to familiarise myself wi…

    Flogging it, pretty much. I have a manual license, but I'm not interested in them. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

    Thank you! Your post about D without its runtime is a fantastic read.

    Holden has been owned by GM since the 1930s and has been building its own vehicles since 1948. Holden ceased building cars in 2017 and was disbanded in 2020 (RIP). But yeah, the 4L…

    They're really not good gearboxes. Keep in mind, with the 4 speeds I drove casually. With this 6 speed, I can push it hard and it's still going strong almost a year later. They're …
