nkpro newb questions

[Guest mici]

Hi all im new to nkpro and since it is kinda different from other sims (rfactor/simbin titles) i have few questions on which i cant find the answer myself.

1.Is there a way to see race or session info (length,weather....) before race?

2.Is there a voting system for skip session for example or kick player?

3.Is there a pit limiter and when you pit do you have to change tires and refuel manualy or is there some kinda preset for this?

4.Is there a way to change to slicks in f1600?

5.Is there a way to see diff. times during the race other than watchin pitboard?

6.Is there a way to filter servers( not to show pasword protected for example)?

7.Is it normal that when you cross the finish line you immediately get in the box and there is no result board or anythin like for example simbin titles have?

Thanks in advance.

p.s.this is a grat sim!!!

1. Yes (when you choose online race you see the list of servers. race laps are in the rightmost column. weather and damage are listed into square brackets, near the server name)

2. no

3. there is a speed limiter in pitlane. you have to choose "change tyres" and "refuel" manually when in pits. it's automatic when restarting from box.

4. no

5. yes, you have to set your AIM display with mouse (in F1600, F1800, F2000, FTarget). In 500 Abarth, Vintage, Osella you see differences in bottom left of screen). In KS2 it's automatic

6. no (AFAIK)

7. no. it happens at the end of race, (and you see the race timetable and drivers positions) and when qualifiyng last laps end.

sry for basic english

1. Is there (or will be there) a option to start a session where it rains on training, during race in lap 4 it drys, on lap 10 it begin again to rain and on lap 14 its very hard rain?

2. Where can i find infos how many laps my tires will last? e.g. Vintage on a GP track blah?

3. Why i manually must change tires and fuel?

4. What port i must open for my dedicated server? Is there a option to open the server for 2 different cars?

Thx 4 help!

1. atm not the wheater is fixed and not dynamic, and i don't know if kunos will work on it in the official 1.3 version

2. there aren't infos about that (at least i don't know if there is a way or a system, maybe someone know something about that).... the only way to know it, is to do a long run test.

3. i don't know it was a develloper choise!!

4. try to download that program:

with it you can change the port of the server and choose all the other settings

Thx for replay. Here some more

1. I downloaded the Server tool, changed port and opened it in my router. I could join but none of my friends (timeout, black screen). Is there a FAQ somewhere? (what is FullMode, cutomGrid, tires?info where?, running servers, and so on)

2. The Collision model is .. very strange. Is this beta status problem? No chance of racing door on door, every little touch ends in spins or 100m bounces.

3. Sound?! Is there a alternative sound pack? When i hit grass (e.g. abbarth) sometimes its the same sound as on gravel and this sound is loud and horrible

4. Some setup guides already for wet? With most cars i have heavy over and understeer. But atm without dynamic weather its not that exciting as it looks. Too heavy reflections also.

5. Is dynamic day/night planned?

Its still a very good sim in my eyes but some things are really missing. A good UI, better sounds, a much better collision model and some more infos about my car (in real racing my team would analyze this data for me while driving or in box)
