It really depresses me to read such blind tosh!
In principle nkp is a great sim. In fact I bought it after 2 laps of the demo. But the dev(s) are public relations idiots.
I've just deleted a 20minute rant because it's all so pointless.
Daft thing is, I keep checking that forum in the faint hope that something HAS happened.
Oh and a 17km hillclimb-online. How good is that going to be. Go on server, wait 20 minutes for your turn, crash on turn 4, go home.
I'm off to slash my wrists.

Ping in connection list
Given the frequency of multi disconnects caused, apparently, by one person lagging badly, how difficult would it be to have players pings in the connection list. You could then see at a glance who the likely culprit is and take whatever action is deemed necessary. While we're at it, how about a server option of not allowing pings over xxx?
Call me a bitch but I reckon Jaap Wagenvoort has picked a pretty easy job for himself. RSC NKP forum He's going to keep us informed about developments! :ices_rofl
Indeed. Needs a cull.
Seconded. Restarting a qualifying session is the same. i.e. you can be on track and instead of 'respawning' on track you're sent to spectate and get the message. You then have to select 'join'
It's not just me then. Fences along the back straight and the pitwall on Westhill take up all my attention these days

I've watched your developement over the years and I have to say you're coming along nicely
It's more than very nice, it's first class! Now set about the rest of the cars. Oh, and never mind the backup.
Now set about the rest of the cars. Oh, and never mind the backup.Nice. That could well feature on a future skin. Thanks.
EDIT: It WILL feature on my new skin.

I did, I did! Trouble with that is you can miss some important stuff. Don't ask me what!
/w pb is ok if you can remember what the previous pb was. Absolutely NO chance of that!
Leave the damned messages until after the race. No more preoccupation with PBs, more concentration on actually racing. No more crashing 3 seconds after seeing pb message (happens every time 
) No more spamming of 'well done's, smileys, 'good job's every time someone gets a pb. (yes I'm as guilty as anyone for that)
Much better to get a nice surprise at the end.

I just did an inventory of the collection of games bought over the years. Oddly enough they all seem to have cost about £30-£35. There is over a grands worth of games taking up shelf space having been played through once, then forgotten. Apart from Half Life, which I've played several times and CS (free), LFS has taken up almost all of my gaming. If the devs packed up and went home right now and never did another stroke of work on it, LFS would be the BEST value for money....EVAH!
I think there's a bit of a misconception here. It's not 'slow' drivers per se, that is the issue. It's the totally inept 'drivers'
Believe me nathan, we try to communicate with these guys but it's an uphill struggle. It's hard to know what to do for the best for all of our guests, but OldBloke's suggestion is pretty much on the money.
@felplacerad: Do enlighten us.

As an experienced driver you wouldn't have too much of a problem making the cut. Time and time again people join, do a lap and I think 'woohoo! someone I can beat' Within what seems a very short space of time my ass is being whipped! This, mind you, is by someone who copied 'This is your first time in this car/track' message!
+1 and however many zeroes.
Wot he said /|\ Indicators are just that, indicators, not instructicators.
Er..the topic is: He wants a team
Putting his email address in like that will get him more replies than he'll know what to do with.

illepall Yeah, I see what you mean. Thanks for the input.
Haha! I make a habit of using shift+F bound to a wheel button. It never occured to me that leaving the connection list on had that effect. Well spotted that man. Out damned cursor!
Please Mr. Developer man would you, at some stage, make it so the mouse cursor auto disappears after a few seconds inactivity, to reappear when the mouse is moved? It's doin' me 'ead in! I find myself fixated by it. Thank you.
A hillclimb is just the event for nKP, one car at a time, no fps problems, no lag, perfect!
You tell 'em Al.
