Some test results from the version that is currently live:
Race: 466
Drivers: 10956, 2638
Driver 10956 has been on hold position for approximately 5 laps as I speak, and 2638 on push hard. There seems to be no difference between their tyres, in terms of condition or temperature. Their lap times are also identical lap after lap. It seems the push instructions are being ignored. Sure enough, as I refresh the window (F5) they are both on regular push.
Also, I tried typing a chat message twice and it did not send.
Finally, on my first pit stop I changed the fuel levels as the cars were coming down the pit road (which is huge in China) and had enough time to get everything done before they reached the box. I set fuel to 80+ and tyres to hard, but as they entered the box they were given 43L and soft tyres (the default value before I changed it). I closed the strategy window and re-opened it, to see that the values for stint 2 had changed back to this even though before I had closed the strategy window it read 80+ and hards.
After refreshing the whole viewer it seems everything is functioning properly again and orders are registering now, I did some changes and refreshed again, this time the buttons remained on what I set them at. I don\'t know what caused the interface to stop functioning before the refresh though, but it was certainly not working.

I also had some problems with push level orders. It showed full push on the screen, but in fact it was on push only. (which I noticed about the laptimes/tyre temps) It showed the correct push level after refreshing the page.
This happened a few times in the race.

My drivers\' lap times were chaotic during the whole race. Maybe I had the same problem.

There was a problem with a recent simulator update that meant that any slight problem with the information received from a viewer could knock it into a state of ignoring all communication thereafter. I\'ve fixed this now.

Still not fixed here. When I click on push (or w/e) it doesn\'t register it and just goes back to full push after a page refresh. (also the tyres are showing it\'s still on full push)

There was another related problem. That too has been fixed. To test to see if this kind of problem is still happening, just try using chat. If chat doesn\'t work then it\'s probably related to this bug. I\'d be really surprised if it\'s *still* happening though. Thanks.

Yesterday evening I called my two drivers to pit during 5 times and they did the scheduled pitstop, not my call. I\'ve tried to change tires from Hard to soft and it doesn\'t work. Neither the amount of fuel that I changed before they enter the pits but they don\'t charge the amount i told but the scheduled...
It\'s a shame! I had too many problems in the last races with this.

Pablo, have you checked the unscheduled pit stop box when you made the call ? If not, driver will pit, but will take the tires and fuel under normal race conditions. You can alter those too.

Alin, the Unscheduled pit stop box was not checked...

Pablo, if you have this problem again could you use the Bug Report button in the viewer itself to make a report. This will give me a lot more debugging information. Thanks.
