tyres

It was correct, since the red tires DID have pace, but the problem was we didn\'t know when it was correct red due to actual wear and when it was red due to errror display. It\'s like a faulty warning light in your car dashbord. It just stays on all the time. You may actual have a problem, but you don\'t know, since that light is on all the time.

I think I now know why the tires wear that much and why directors prompt us to use two stops on 50% race distances, rather than one, like it was before. The wear (not just the parts, but tires too - and probably driver\'s fatigue as well) is twice as normal. I wonder how come the fuel usage is not twice as well. Maybe you omitted that. Please confirm that is the case with the parts and tires excessive wear (twice like it was prior to the reset). If so, it all makes sense to me.

Yeah, effectively it was a \"faulty warning light\" as you say.  That problem should be fixed now.

Sorry to say your suspicion about tyre wear isn\'t accurate.  In fact, it\'s only the engine that as yet degrades faster.  I\'ve only just rolled out that change to other parts of the car.  We haven\'t planned to have the same effect apply to the tyres, fuel or driver abilities.

There\'s only 2 reasons I can think of why the tyres are degrading faster now: 1) Low level drivers: they cause significantly more damage to the tyres and 2) Introduction of the effects of tyre pressure on tyre damage.

It\'s most likely to be due to 1.

I don\'t understand a single thing now... BPS, best drivers (at least in comparison), training speed, and every race go slower. 4 seconds per lap behind, even raising risks... what in God\'s name did you do?

Weird speed for some drivers, weird tyre wear, there\'s no logic at all now.

Releasing in 8 days, and 6 pounds per month for this?, not a chance!.

I\'m sorry but I\'m so frustrated, anyhow I\'m not saying nothing far from the truth.

Pretty close to the exit door.

I haven\'t run the update after todays work, there\'s been quite a lot of fixes.  Sorry but your race is probably messed up due to similar bugs that have been posted earlier.  I\'d really appreciate more specific info about what is going wrong so I can fix it.  There shouldn\'t be many differences from before the reset.  The most significant (intentional) change is just that tyres will now cool down as they lose condition.

Half drivers started with blue tyres, the other half with gray ones.
As a result, half drivers a half lap behind in less than 10 laps.

Yet, the tires lose up to 9% of their life each lap. This is too much. And I am talking about tires fit for the right condition. For instance, full wets on a wet track degrading 9% per lap is ridiculous.

In the dry today at China the tyres seemed to work very well. Maybe this is the first post here with some good news. :D

One driver was pushing hard all stint, the other holding position, by the end of the stint there was a 20% + difference in their tyre condition, and though the driver that was pushing pulled away in the beginning, his tyres were destroyed at the end and the car who had been holding position was able to go much faster on his in laps.

That\'s pretty much exactly like real life, the wet weather tyres need some refining but the dry seemed good today. Only suggestion: Hard tyres maybe need a little more durability versus the softs.

In race id 466 i\'m use hard tyres with my too pilots. I stop 1 time with one and 2 with other (wrong calc of fuel). I push hard in all race, my tyres finish 31 and 26% in each stint and the color red never appear.... Blue/Gray/pink and again gray. in this order.....

please analyse Race ID 466 and pilot 18250 (Marco Calvi).

Andrew, under the new system, we have no idea when the tires are worn and / or at optimum temperature. Sometimes tires become red, blue, red again, again blue, but lap times are not related to this. I had lap times 3 secs faster with tires in worse condition. I mean, on today\'s race, at the end of first stint, at about 33% left, tires were blue and I lost a lot of time. Yet, on final stint and final lap I did my fastest lap, on tires with 27% condition.

Like Ron Dennis said in Senna movie: \"where\'s the consistency ?\" :)

Luiz, I\'m not sure what the problem is that you want me to check.  The fact that the tyres didn\'t go red isn\'t necessarily a problem.  I see that the air temperature was 4 degrees C, so I wouldn\'t be surprised if it was really difficult to keep the tyres warm.  If you\'re wondering why they went back to grey, that\'s due to a recent update whereby the tyres will gain less heat as they wear.

Alin, the main thing that will be affecting consistency at the moment is the driver.  Almost by definition low level drivers are inconsistent.  It\'s a bit annoying that new players will see this aspect in the beginning and may conclude that the whole thing is inconsistent and unrealistic, while only people who have been playing for long enough to have good drivers will see results that are closer to Formula One races.  I might therefore try to make even bad drivers more consistent - and just make them consistently slow!

In my case, I have another 18 year old girl as a driver. You can say she looked into the mirror to fix her make-up and ran over a kerb. :)
