AtomAnt, I have no idea who you are, what WR you had (big whoop - I mean, I don't speak to anyone down the pub who hasn't had at least 2 WRs! :shrug, or what league you're involved in - I assume it's the one in your sig?
You've jumped in defending Becky from what exactly? What's so bad that you've gone off on one? Unless English isn't your first/best language and something's lost in translation, I can't see anything to warrant this one-sided thread.
Now, before you go off in a huff (which may be too late given your last comment) how's about you wind your neck in and I'll try to understand where you're coming from?
No panic.. turns out to be an STCC-specific thing, which I've sent on to Becky to confirm and fix (if necessary, but we'll do some testing to make sure). Thanks to Breizh for his attention to detail!
Until I'm 100% sure that a potential loophole, if it exists, has been closed, I'd rather not mention what it is.. hope you all understand
The exploit was reported to me as the ability to select auto gears. I've checked all servers and could not join in any of them with auto gears, so I dont really know what this is about.
Becky, join race in legal settings.
Bring up Esc menu, change settings to illegal.
There weren't any penalties last time I checked.
My suggestion was to ask the devs to make this the same as driver position (left/right), which only updates changes after a pit-in.
edit- I just checked and there is a check in place as SamH told me was forthcoming, so you did and do know what this was about.
Thanks for keeping things in shape.
Well, I dunno, you coded the thing.
I just saw something while spectating that got me thinking of whether you could just change the gear settings at any other time than the pit-out check.. and sure enough I tried a few different ways, and finished at least one race at the LRF server with the forbidden settings using that exploit.
No more than 2 days ago.
I might not have been auto-kicked as mentionned in the previous reply, though; my connection is flaky at the moment.
