Quote from MagicFr :

I agree !!!

Me too!

maybe scawen is waiting everyone use a passenger on FXO to make this class + equal...

Quote from Jakg :

i always thought of the FXR as a "learner" car, as it is easy (well, easier!), and to make it completely equal would undermine the "snappier" cars

Ok, but u dun need to make it 2s+ slower than the other 2 cars...

Quote from MagicFr :

If you think 15kg ( -8 rb4, +7 fxo )will change "something" in the car balancing well i think you think wrong

In French TBO Season 3, FXO have a passenger has handicap and they are still 1 sec faster Especialy on fast tracks.

Just my 2 cents thought , futur will tell me if i'm wrong or not, i sincerely hope to be wrong.

the bra league will use 1 passenger on the FXO again on our champs...

on other thread about the tbo balancing we already said that FXO needs at least 70kg to make it fair on the TBO class, but i think the devs dont heard nothing about that

and the GTR class still with the FXR GTR a lot slower than the others 2... same problem... but at least we had 2 faster options, not only 1...

RB4 and XRT still a lot slower than FXO.... on KY GP long for example, i take like 30 laps to do 2.49.6 pb with XRT, then i take FXO and in 3 laps i did 2.48.6... so, FXO still + than 1s faster than XRT...

maybe now its a bit closer, but FXO still a lot faster...

Quote from Scawen :

I think they need to pass a timing check point, after receiving the penalty, and before performing the action to clear the penalty.

So, the way it works at the moment, if the penalty is applied during the final sector, then they need to drive another lap before diong the drive through.

Warning : I'm saying this without looking at the MPR, because i know of this possible problem anyway. If this doesn't explain it, please tell me and then i'll study the MPR if necessary.

It can't be solved in a compatible version. The reason it's like this is because it was originally only done by the program, not by admins, and this new admin controllable system was introduced in a compatible patch. Meaning, it used the existing code, which required the user the cross a checkpoint before the penalty is "ready to be done".

I don't know if my explanation is very clear. Anyway it's now noted on my bug sheet to be fixed if possible, in a non-compatible version.

yeah, its clear Scawen!

i tested and if the racer pass a time check everything is fine

we will apply the penalty before the racer cross a sector line until the bug is solved

thanks

Sometimes, when the admin applies online punishments (ex: drive throuht), the racer who recieves the punishment, acomplish it, but the game does not remove the pilot's punishement...

it happened 2 times with our league races, and both happened when an adm applied an online penalty!

Quote from STROBE :

It seems pretty off to me. On AS3 in the GTRs I can exit the chicane and draft past the car in front, who will then tuck in behind me and draft past again, followed by me tucking in behind him and getting a draft so that we're side-by-side into T1. In real life I've never seen two cars draft each other three times in the space of one straight/such short time.

Problem with the drafting is that it doesn't feel progresisve enough - it's like hitting a "push to pass" button. I'd expect the drafting to be ever so slight at first, you just notice the increased acceleration and a slight gain on the car ahead, with the effect more and more pronounced as you close on the car in front. Instead it feels like you get nothing at first, then suddenly the whole draft effect is applied instantly.

true...

and i this happens with all cars... with GTi u can gain almost 10km/h drafting... lol

with a gtr u can draft 3 times at as nat/hist/gp, or on ky national, for example...

if FXO get + weight, maybe 1200kg(actually weights 1130kg)...

the brazilian league is using one passenger on FXO to make it fair..

i can do almost the same number of laps w/o changing tires with FXO and XRT

at ky nat i can do 32 laps with XRT, and 31 with FXO... i can drive FXO as fast as XRT... maybe a bit faster(ye, carrin 1 passenger)...

i really dont understand why FXO need to be that faster in comparison with XRT or RB4...
