Since the series has now been decreased down to 5 rounds, Westhill will not be used and thus all layouts are now available (final edits coming later though).

They should add RALLY cars, damn it! They could make a new version from the XFR one for example, changing the bodywork to fit rallycross and change the drivetrain.

Right, because it's the right answer.

Quote from Dennis93 :

It's a close one, but I would go far if I said the closest one, nevertheless, good move!

Especially in ovals, but on race tracks moves like these are rare. Also to consider a move a close one it also depends which car you're driving. But hey, thanks!

Derp.

Happy birthday Botsi! Think this was a planned move to go into dynX just before your birthday?

Quote from BorislavB :

Will be good to have one race on autocross. What do you think?

We will not run on Autocross.

I remember battling with Botsi in 5laps.com...hopefully doing so in the international races of LFS as well! Top bloke

Anyone awake for updates? Now that the Kyoto 500 is past, CodeLyoko1 and I are ready to continue the preparing of this series.

Also, 100th reply :monkey:

I'm afraid you have to wait for S3 that never comes out. It's also uncertain whether it will have that feature or not.

Either way, I suppose you haven't read this topic yet? https://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=2626
As you can see, the realistic damage has already been suggested.

i use that too :d

+1

Well I did say not often but meh, it could happen.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

Flip == retirement

True, not often I see a car continuing the race after flipped over, both real life and simracing

I guess that could work as well...he would get the advantage of both recovering and getting repaired.

But there's still plenty of time to think until the first round, surely this case will be discussed a lot about and has various possibilities to utilize.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

temporarily enable car reset, have that car reset, and then assess a penalty.

I had in mind to enable car reset temporarily when the rescue car has arrived and ready to reset the car, is it possible to reset the car without changing the car stats?

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

You could allow car-reset, and listen for a IS_CRS (car reset), and automatically assess a s/g penalty to that driver.

Good suggestion, but I find that rather sketchy and too modern to use, as most of the leagues tend to be as close to reality as possible, thus I've thought about yellow flagging on that zone the car is stuck at and enable a rescue and safety car.

It's not only about "ruining" one's race, but also because the stuck car could be a danger on the track, and the MRT's are such easy to drive you rarely get stuck. I won't allow car resetting though.

Quote from teppo.jr :

u can check them after race if u suspect someone is using wrong setups.

Ah yes, correct. However it would still take the same amount of time as with locking the setups separately, so for now, the decision stands, but might be cancelled if a reliable solution is found. The replays will be checked after the race anyway for incidents.

You've probably misunderstood. As said on the thread, it can extract the setup(s) from a replay file but yet you don't have an other way to make sure no one uses a setup different from the fixed one, the one required to use.

Quote from teppo.jr :

wait... its possible with... u know... setup exctractor thingy.
theres nothing wrong at it if the sets are fixed

I'm not familiar with the LFS insim's, but what I heard from CodeLyoko1 is that fixed setups are possible, but only by locking every setup separately, meaning, that there will be no public parc ferme but instead every driver's setups must be locked separately, taking some time.

I'll make the changes once I get home in the weekend, won't bother doing it now. Just try to cope with the current layout for now

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

put the changelog in the op post then, cuz Im also to lazy to read all those other posts

Quote from RandomnessInside :

UPDATE 26.5.2013: The series schedule is now added on the LFS race calendar, and the series name has been decided to be Formula M (M for MRT). The series will start on the 14th of September and will end on the 23rd of November. The races are held on Saturdays every other week. The calendar consists of 6 rounds, each of them being driven on different tracks.

The knock-out qualifying idea has been scrapped, as well as the fixed setups, because there's no simple way to accomplish it. As the rulebook comes, the points system will be informed as well. We also decided to allow bump-drafting.

You're welcome lol. Might have to change the layout since you all find it so distracting.

Quote from teppo.jr :

i love the idea of fixed setups on mrt

Fixed setups were scrapped a month ago. Please always check the changlelog for rule changes and such.

Quote from Mr. Kninja :

the chicane on Blackwood could use some work though, it felt too slow and abrupt to me.

It might be a little sketchy, but as I was testing with CodeLyoko1 we thought that would be the best type of a chicane, enough slow and capable of overtaking manoeuvres. When you get the ideal line for that you'll see it'll make a great chicane.

It's rare a Finn takes a jump start

Bump - feedback needed, please.
