today i finished my season here https://igpmanager.com/app/p=league&id=4160
i went to see how was my car for the new season and this is what i have.


is this right? i think my 13 in acceleration might be wrong as the 1 in downforce.
i have +1bonus because of Murk but... 13?

and my chief designer has downforce as strength.

just to be sure, if the new game has this as a random thing, or it's connected with how was my car before the end of the season, i might even like it

Yous already know I just reminding yous, system has strength and weakness back to front.

Just about to post about this too, but you did it first..

My CD had strength on fuel economy.. but my new car design are opposite that!

What are new car design based on?

Is that the only designer you had during the previous season James? Or was there another designer for part of it?

It's not just based on the current designer, it's developed throughout the whole season. I just looked at the code and can't see how it can be inverted, but with several people saying this now I suppose it could be!

Exact same pattern for me. Designer with down force strength and new downforce at level 1. Except my other design areas are higher reflecting my level cap of 9. I joined the league mid season.

I think they are backwards right now. If I remember correctly, Jack said he was looking into this.

yes, they are looking into all, doing a great job. we have to write and wait, answers and solutions are coming non-stop.

(maybe too much strength on downforce could break it :P)

It the only designer I have had all season, you need to remember he had 18talent & 20 experience & morale before you chopped his legs off to make him 12 in everything lol

Would a simple fix not be to just change the wording around on the CD's profile have weakness at the top & strength at the bottom?
Would save you searching through the coding looking for the mix up.

I've merged the two threads on this.

The issue was not what it seemed, it was not simply an inversion of the attributes.

I've fixed it now so it shouldn't happen again. Although, bear in mind that with the way the game works now, next season designs are built up across the entire season. That means if you're part way through a season, the designs will likely still be affected by this issue even if they are only "revealed" in a few days or when the next season starts.

So does this mean that if a team chooses to save up design points over the course of a season, they will have more design points to assign at the beginning of the following season?

No, design points are wiped at the end of a season. They should be allocated during the season.

Don't know how you are reading that out of Jack's post.

He is basically saying that, if you e.g. hire a CD with acceleration as strengh at the end of the season, while you had your older CD for 15-16 races of that season with acceleration as weakness, your acceleration at the beginning of the new season would be under average.

(as the new design is like an average over all races with the CD stats at those particular times).

However, there was apparently a bug in this code, so that will not neccesarly be true for the coming season, especially when the majority of races where held before the bug was repaired ( I guess that would be today).

The bug that caused values to be off is fixed, but I have no way of fixing values that were impacted by the bug. All the bug caused was some points to be on one attribute rather than another, and only for some teams. It did not cost you any points on the design overall, the overall amount of points is the same as it would be.
