The devs used a queue system on autox courses when they ran LX Month. I think, iirc, once you joined the server you were entered into the queue, when it was your go you got an invite to the track, you then either joined or canceled so the next person could go.
So your suggestion has already been used in LFS, just not sure why the devs haven't put this into LFS permanently, because this is probably one of the most annoying autox bugs.
I agree with you, it's only a game, who cares about a kid using it in the name of his server? Obviously it bothers Mr. Reiljans, so he had to come and question him about it...
Yeah I did hit apply, just never got to close it properly I did noticed though, once I started the program again, the settings I had made where still there.
Of course pointing the finger helps, how else do you solve such a problem without blaming someone and therefore being able to see what needs changing?
IMO, the parents of the kids are to blame. Kids will be kids, they will always try to push the boundaries but it's the parents job to keep them on the right road, not saying it's easy but that's the way it goes. The cop was just doing his job.
Out of curiosity, what EU trademark are you talking about?
EDIT: Why are the kids here[on the forum] so intent on either starting an argument or slagging someone off? It's crazy. And I would imagine it would turn a lot of new, and old, members off posting anything here...
Then obviously the racers aren't gettin what they want. I for one do not like multiclass racing, too much mayhem. So I'd imagine there are a number of people who don't race online in public servers for the same reason. Multiclass servers are exactly like cruise servers, imo, start off in a slower class/car and people who race there longer than you have, are bombing around. The creation of good quality singleclass racing servers is where you'll see the real racers come out to play. I'm looking forward to seeing what this man has up his sleeve!
Yes, it was a great first event! Luckily I got first in race one(leader forgot to pit=DSQ) and second for race 2, which puts me first overall, nice.
Looking forward to the next event. I think it will be even closer than SO Classic as there are less turns and no difficult chicane, so less mistakes, which means closer racing! Yeah!
About the speed bumps. I think I know where you are talking about. The reason it looks like a lot is because there are some which are part of the track and they can't be edited. I don't think they are near enough to the edge of the track, so I had to double up there, but as you said, if you don't like, delete.
I thought about that too. One thing I think will be a big problem in races is coming off the banking at speed in the faster GTR's or open wheelers, it could cause them to become too imbalanced and spin or cause an accident. I think they might be able to handle the tighter track easier than the difference of going from the banking to the pit lane, but it's still only an idea so we'll see when more people test out the track.
I see what you are saying, but it will only effect races on the reverse config. Cars entering the chicane will gain from extra wide corner entry and cars driving in opposite direction, towards camera in screen shot 1, will gain from a wider corner. Reverse configs are always a little bit difficult, hehe.
If people find it difficult then an adjustment can be made, otherwise I'll leave it and see how it goes, it is only on the reverse config after all, hehe.
Thanks for your comments and your translation of "Langstrecke", endurance is where I started on Google Translate but eventually ended up with Langstrecken-Schleife. I removed the "-" and the capital "S" which does effect the translation but it seems to work/look better as one word.
EDIT: One of the biggest problems will be going from the banked oval to the pit lane(visible in the background of screen shot 3), now this will be a wall that will suddenly appear in front of racers, hopefully though, people will get used to it and get off the banking in time.
EDIT2: So I've been thinking about this problem with coming off the banking into the pit lane. It might be best to not use the banking at all there, see attachment. I've used all 800 objects so the barrier around the banking isn't the prettiest but it works. Do you think I should add this to the layout or leave it like this?
So, since the open config tracks were released I thought about a long Kyoto track, as did a lot of others. Well, here is what I came up with (hope no one has done it already) after looking at otherreleased layouts.
I didn't want to go with another KY3 track number code, so I decided to actually give the track a name, one which would remind people of Nordschleife, so they would know that this track is a long one. Langstreckenschleife translates(hopefully) to "long distance loop" or something similar. Now I know the track isn't exactly a loop, but as I said, I named it that to remind people this ain't no sprint race. I have used the full pit road of the Oval section as part of the track, I have attempted to make it race friendly. The pit road could easily fit 3 or 4 wide, so I didn't see any problem using it, once the pit garages were blocked off. Reverse config should be ok, if you find anything wrong with the layouts, you can either edit it yourself and post the update here, or let me know and I can update it. Checkpoints are in the same position both forward and reverse, I rotated the checkpoints and finish line to work correctly for each config.
No distance or timed runs as yet, I'll add them at some stage.
All comments / suggestions welcome.
Enjoy!
Screen shots attached...
EDIT: Fixed finish line, on both layouts, to cover pitlane.
Hmmm, you sure you have the dedi server closed before you edit the cfg file? You sure you saved the cfg file after editing? Only things I can think of.
I just tested this, if you edit the cfg file while the dedi server is running and save it, then close the server and start it again, the changes you made in the cfg file will return to what they were before editing. So, close the dedi server, edit what you want in the correct cfg file and it shouldn't change back.
Haha yea, takes some real skill and precision to do that, 1337 skillz lol... I do have the full screen shots there, here's another shot I forgot to add earlier. It's a good one I think.
