But there is one more point that is not clear to me.
When you go to the research screen and can compare your car with the other cars in the competition, your EP will not be included in the visual display.
The green progress bar just stays that way, even if you use the EP.
I tested this by first looking without the EP at the green bar on acc. And then with EP looking at the green bar with acc.
Anyone have any idea how this is possible?
That way you can never make a fair and good comparison with the others, can you?
The clue is in the name, it's called the
Research screen because it is here that you can determine which attribute(s) to spy on. This is also why your CD strength and weakness are indicated by coloured bars to enable you to calculate precisely which boxes to tick to gain maximum benefit.
Research is calculated on the difference between your base design and the base design of the strongest team in the league. Supplier modifiers (Engines, Fuel, Tyres) have no relevance in research calculations which is why they are not displayed on this tab.
What you are trying to do is compare total design (including suppliers) which is not relevant for research purposes and in any case is not possible because you have no idea which suppliers your competitors are using. it were possible it would remove one of the few tuning tweaks that managers can hide from their competitors and for this reason I don't think being able to make a direct comparison is either necessary or fair.
In this situation, you can't actually assume anything 100%.
For example, you can see from the progress bar that team A is the best developed on acc.. But secretly Team B (own engine manufacturer) has added +24 EP to acc.. As a result, team A is not the most developed team on acc., but Team B.
That makes the game "real" . Just like in reality, you only find out during the race when Team B suddenly puts you 3 laps behind.
Okay clear.
I thought maybe this was still part of the development of the game and that it would be included in the updates.
But this way is of course much better to keep the game very exciting
