Updated VCDS to find that the Long Coding method seems to have been redesigned. Have not needed to use long coding in anger until yesterday, and while trying to complete a retrofit I found the new process to be very frustrating and indeed counter intuitive. While you can still select bytes they are no longer clearly defined, fine can live with that but Lcode2 does not work as it used to, meaning that any edited long coding would not populate the new coding box. I had a nightmare yesterday because of this, retrofitting Hold Assist to a 2016 RS3, as any changes I tried to make would not be moved to the new coding box and when I copied and pasted in new "manually edited" coding via notepad the changes would not "stick" even though they were accepted without error. I ended up using a different tool which still functions the way VCDS used to for my works.
Whats the reasoning for this redesign? Not seen anyone else mention this so might just be me having issues wrapping my head around this
