Tyre config separate from performance file

[Former user]

Requesting tyre config to be in a separate file, and not linked to performance. E.g.:

#!
[PerfManager]
Enable          =1
Path                =gpxpdata\performance.txt

[TyreManager]
Enable          =1
Path                =gpxpdata\tyres.txt
Path01          =gpxpdata\tyres_supersoft_medium.txt
Path02          =gpxpdata\tyres_soft_medium.txt
Path03          =gpxpdata\tyres_medium_hard.txt
PatchTextures       =0

This new file (or files) would contain the [TyreTextureNames], [TreadTextures], [WheelTextures], and the older [Tyres] sections. No new functionality, just reading the current config from two locations instead of one to make it more customisable.

Reason: Performance does not vary that much per event, so 17 individual perf files are often not necessary. (I also like to have only 1 perf file in my Laptop Edition mod so when we play competitions there is no confusion).

But tyre compounds often do vary from event to the next. So to get the right tyre compound to show for each track, one has to leave GP4 and select another track in the CSM menu. And if not using CSM, it's currently impossible without track-specific perf files.

Thanks! Tom

Considering your proposal, the thing you want should already be possible. Try to use track specific performance files with only the [TyreTextureNames], [TreadTextures], [WheelTextures], and [Tyres] sections. The performance values will still come from the main performance file.
