Thy the greatest race of the season come.
I hope we do some kind of endurance race sometime here, taking into acount this track is a killer and your race can be ended at the very beginning.

Fixed ;D well spotted Tom, going to have to sack the race director I think :p


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - mel1c - 13-06-2013

We have had some SERIOUS lag issues on Server 1 the last two days with drivers leaving during a race. It's as if they get hung up leaving and the exit process tries again every 1 sec resulting in a 1 sec freeze repeating and repeating and repeating until everyone eventually crashes.

(I see Nikos reported this in the ISI tech support forum)


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - gorgias1976 - 13-06-2013

Mmm, bad news then.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - gorgias1976 - 13-06-2013

We may get the race postponed again.
Better to me as I'm quite busy in a personal Raspberry Pi personal project and don't get free time to practice.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - Craven Morespeed - 13-06-2013

I'm in physical therapy and have not been driving . My shoulder is doing better. Not sure if will help my driving but the rest is helping. Hope they get the lag issue fixed.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - Lecram - 13-06-2013

This bug was bad, now it has gone to worse... >Sad What's strange is that it started tuesday night, after we had some races without the bug.. but I can't remember if people left during those races.... :Smile
Could it be something serverside? Or maybe like DjC suggested, turn off ai all together at server?


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - Fergy - 13-06-2013

We'll have a look at it from our side this evening. Although it's looking build related at this point.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - 1959nikos - 13-06-2013

Very quiet about it at ISI forums

RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - gorgias1976 - 14-06-2013

Great news problems may have been solved.

Even though we are racing 1x fuel, it is quite noticeable here.
I tested yesterday with 6lap fuel and it really feels an important difference in car performance depending on track section. Time to look for a 3x3 strategy? things can get really busy in the pit area if everybody goes for the same.

Talking about pits, carefull with them, if you miss the entry by just a little, pit "arrow" will disappear and nobody will be there waiting for you to change your tires and put fuel in your car.

And, talking about race start. How are you doing it? I feel it a bit difficult to make a good start. Having left foot on the clutch and right foot's heel on the brakes and toe on the throttle.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - giorgetto giaguaro - 14-06-2013

Ye gorka, it's a bit difficult the start at historic spa. Btw I'm using the same tecnique..


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - Fergy - 14-06-2013

Pit lane,
The pit lane rule will apply as per normal for those pitting in Sunday races. I'm sure we've all seen the example in Rules&Regulations Wink if not check it out.

Racing rule for this race only

[b]Unless your pitting don't not cut the entrance of pit lane during the race.[/b]

You can cut the line at your own discretion after the pit entrance. Hitting a pitted car will see you disqualified from the race.

RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - mel1c - 15-06-2013

The repeating lag bug happened 3 times Friday while I was on the server, and it [blink]seems[/blink] that it was always a new, unfamiliar, driver that exited to start it.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - Fergy - 15-06-2013

Seems strange. Your though Mel. Although the last race I did I exited and became ai. We'll have to look at it today.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - gorgias1976 - 15-06-2013

When you mean cutting the line at our discretion, does it mean we can leave pits completely off the pit lane.
That could mean a little advantage for people having their pitbox at the beginning of the pitlane as they can leave the pitlane as soon as they change tires and refuel and forget about the 100km/h pit limit.


RE: SR4L Fun Race League Rnd 11 Belgium - DJCruicky - 15-06-2013

Gorgias, I think Bryan is talking about normal laps when you are NOT pitting.

A few things people need to know about SPA pits:-

When pitting:
The red arrowed pit box only appears if you have pressed the pit request button.
You must press the pit request button in good time. If you press it to late the pit crew don't have enough time to come out, you will not get the red box in the pitlane.
If you press it too soon, they will come out, give up waiting and go back in. Press button half lap to go is the best time to get crew ready.
When pitting drive within the 100kph speed limit right side of the yellow line. Don't drive at full speed down the left side of the yellow line then cut into your pit box.

When not pitting:
If you decide not to pit after requesting a pitstop, careful not to drive into the pit area or you will get a speeding ticket by the game. Cancel pit request is best thing to do.
When you are low on fuel the pit crew come out without you requesting pit, be careful this does not happen if you are cutting into the pit area at full speed or again the game will give you speeding ticket. Cancel this request with the pit request button.


Hope to finish at least one of the 3 races. Not looking good in practice races Big Grin.
