OK, so I'm late to the party and I haven't had time to read through this entire thread. Hopefully I'm not rehashing old stuff here. I've only been using this a couple of days now and generally it seems to be working fine. No complaints and I'll be buying a license shortly. I've had a couple of questions answered promptly by support, which is encouraging in itself, but that leads me to make this post on a couple of observations.
Firstly, a very minor feature request - can the player profile icons and bumper stickers be added to the dashboard so that when browsing through the players there's a quick visual without having to resort to looking at all the stats? I like those features on the HUD when I'm scanning around the table and I think it would be handy to have them on the dashboard too.
The second thing follows on from an answer I had from support regarding a question I had. I noticed that if I start a new session then all other players stats are cumulative from their entire history, but mine was always reset at the start of the session. Turns out that this is by design, which is fair enough I guess, but the reasoning I got made me start thinking.

We'll add an option for all hero stats to be shown in game, but the default is reset for in session so you know how you're playing, and how others are perceiving you that session.
If others are also running DriveHUD, then their perception of my session would be clouded by past session data wouldn't it? And since I'm running DriveHUD my perception of their play would be clouded by that past data? So what I would like to see on the HUD is a players overall stats and their current session stats as a comparison. That way you could easily tell if a player was running tighter or looser than normal for example. Not necessarily on tilt but just different than you've seen them play before.
I'm only a novice although I've been playing off and on for many years, so I haven't got to grip with any kind of playing strategy. I'm hoping DriveHUD can help me solidify my game but right now I only need the simplest of information on the HUD while I learn what all the other more advanced stats can do for me. It does look to be a great product for that, so a big thanks from me!
