Hello, well, again my car is poorly made for the start of the season, it lacks 10 points in acceleration, 1 in braking, I have 6 more points in cooling, I lack 1 in aerodynamics, 1 in fuel, 2 in driving, I have 3 points more in reliability, and I lack 1 point in tire savings, please fix my car, and by the way, could you tell me what state my chassis is in? If it is at 50% or 100% because it doesn't say it anywhere and I suspect it is at 50%.

Are you getting these numbers from a third-party tool and if so, what leads you to believe that things haven't changed since it was developed?

Also which CDs you were using before the current one? The numbers of the game would be correct for the current CD, 5 races with Acceleration/Reliability, then 9 races with a CD Acceleration/Cooling and 6 races with Handling/Reliability and at least one of the former CDs wasn't 5 stars.

The numbers you give don't work, +10 in Acc means it was the strength of a 5 star CD in all races, thus Handling would be 8 too high and not missing points, and Cooling and Reliability can't both be too many points, their average must be close to 45.

Ahhh I understand now, the research for the next season is the sum of the jd I used in the 20 races, I started with a 5-star driving JD, moved to another with 4.5 stars (39.00) in acceleration, and finally the current one with 5 stars in acceleration. It makes sense now, but because I'm missing a couple of points in areas where I've never had a JD, I don't remember what weaknesses they had, but surely they were both among the three, But why am I missing 1 point in braking, aerodynamics, fuel, and tires? Also, having a 39 JD wouldn't that be the second best?? And the difference with those of 40 should be 1 point?? As specified in the rules??

responding to the above
They are exactly the same values, it's just that instead of putting everything as it is, it shows the design points assigned to the car, adding later in green or subtracting in red how many points you have according to the engine, chassis, DTC, etc. The tool just gives that data, but the car is exactly the same since even if you have extra points from the sponsor "elves" for example, it doesn't affect the way of developing, it affects at the final moment of development and I can have 296 acceleration points + a bonus of 4 from the sponsor. Do I make myself clear? But I remember starting with my 5-star driving JD and it seems strange to me that they include more values referencing the 4.5-star one (39.00), and why one point below in the areas of 59 and why a "difference" of 10 points for having used at some point a 2nd better JD in the game, just because it is 39. Wouldn't those values be from a level 30??

Hi, I checked this and it does not look like a manual car correction is needed.

The next-season car is built race by race from the Chief Designer you had active at the time of each race. So if you used different Chief Designers during the season, the final car will be a mix of those contributions, including their strengths, weaknesses, and star rating.

A 4.5-star Chief Designer is not just a flat 1-point difference from a 5-star one. Their contribution is slightly lower every race they are active, so across several races that can produce a larger difference. Small 1-point differences in other areas can also come from the way the stored values are rounded for display.

At the moment I do not see strong evidence that the car has been generated incorrectly.

Now I understand why the car is in this condition, the only thing that doesn't make sense to me is why 59 points in some areas?? Shouldn't it be 60?? Since I didn't use any type of personnel that could affect those

I didn't test how much difference a level 39 is exactly, but it's more than the 2.5% from level difference, so likely not linear. If it was the CD doing 9 races it's certainly in the range of loosing 1 point, if it was 6 I'd expect it to be close to one point lost, but still rounding up.

Okay thanks for the time Frank and Jack
