UPDATE: Research dialog only shows base design

Hello everybody!

After we released our supplier update, there was one particular issue that made it difficult to know which team was the best in a particular area when viewing the research dialog. Below is the dialog I am speaking of:



We've updated the research dialog to show only the base design of the car, before supplier strengths or weaknesses are applied. We chose this option because these are unique supplier combinations that, realistically speaking, can't be researched to improve the performance of the car.

It'd be unfair and very unrealistic if teams who have a major weakness in a design area are able to make up their gap researching another team excelling in the same area because the researched team has a supplier bonus.

The thread is open to feedback about this. Please stay on topic. Any unrelated comments will be deleted.

i think it's also realistic, to have some design hidden.. you can't know everything from other teams, you can spy but, you can't know their car a 100%. i like it!

I agree with Dan, it's nice that all teams get to keep their suppliers as a secret.

But to calcolate the spy results i must apply the % on what difference? Between my base skill and the base skill of the best car? Alwais without the supplier's improvement? Also without my supplier?

As I understand, you'll always use only the base stats. Supplier's bonusses are not involved when it comes to investigation neither for your stats, nor for the best team's stats

Am I able to 'over develop my own car ie if I have +15 on acceleration and develop to 100 my car is then at 115 for acceleration. I have noticed that it still only says 100 even if the total of development + bonus = > 100.

No, it's limited to 100. Bonuses that make the final total over 100 don't make any impact.

So if my base skill is lover I can spy someone also if my skill with the suppliers is best... strange..

Yes, you can. The logic of this is the benefits a supplier brings to the car design are unique and can't be researched, which is why we only show the base design.

There are player in rookie that have skill over the limit of 50 thanks the suppliers... so rookie and pro can overtake their limits?

Yeah, it seems to be that way.

Are you sure it is not the same also for elite...?

Elite is capped to 100.
