RaceRoom update 09-12-2015

[VELOCIPEDE]

Game:

• Added new content that will be released very soon.
• Implemented Refuelling in pitstops. This is still work in progress and there will be additional fuel options in car setup later. For now all cars will start with full tank. 
• Increased session length up to 6 hours.(R3E only. Does not apply to other experiences.) Please note the replay file size will be rather big on longer session races. You can disable replay recording by adding “-disableReplay” to Launch Options for the game on Steam.
• Added Push-to-Pass logic with a temporary HUD element for it. (HUD will be changed in the near future). Push-to-Pass info is available for spectator overlays and in shared memory.
• Removed the hidden fuel and wear multipliers that were automatically applied depending on race length in R3E.
• Added mandatory pitstop, tyre wear and fuel use options to R3E single player races.
• Fixed a crash that was occurring when car status hud was getting disabled.
• Fixed Mandatory pitstop not counting for player on certain experiences.
• Fixed issue with window values getting wrong if window was minimized, which caused hud objects to appear incorrect.
• Fixed a couple of memory leaks.
• Fixed background video being stretched to right monitor on triple screen setups.
• DTM 2013 - Fixed an issue with 4th round of qualifying ending after the outlap and ending the session with no qualifying time.
• DTM 2014 - Fixed mandatory pitstop not counting for the player.
• Fixed an AI related crash that could have occurred while updating certain events.
• Fixed an issue where the menu would show two “End Session” buttons after returning to Garage from Pause menu after session time has run out.
• Fixed car setup screen blinking red when using non English languages.
• Tweaked AI to improve AI starts on grid.

Multiplayer:

• Increased default connection timeout to 30 seconds.
• Removed a double call to set a connection related option (TCP_NODELAY) for server-client tcp socket.

Sounds, Cameras, Physics & AI:

A me non mi sembrano proprio vere queste voci dell' aggiornamento : 

• A.I. logic improvements. More racy, less hesitant to overtaking, handles crashes better; AI’s now try and avoid cars even when collisions are disabled.
• Improved AI behaviour coming into sharp corners and pitstop area, and various other small fixes.

E' peggiorata la AI ora ti vengono addosso sempre senza frenare, non ti evitano piu', accelerano sempre spingendoti, mi sembra di giocare ad assetto corsa, fino a 3 giorni fa' la AI non faceva per niente cosi'.

forse dipende dalla macchina usata? piuttosto la cosa brutta sono le collisioni, quando colpisci uno arrivandoci da dietro, vieni sbalzato via come fosse un new jersey

Vero stessa cosa di assetto corsa, purtroppo non capisco perche' non riescono a fare le collisioni e i danni come si deve, io mi chiedo: vuoi simulare una gara di auto? Bene la devi simulare in ogni sua parte importante almeno , e le collisioni e i danni sono la base di una gara di auto, altrimenti se mi fai solo la fisica nel FFB, non puoi chiamarlo simulatore. Alla fine prova che ti riprova l'unico vero gioco che simula un po' tutto e ha i danni e le collisioni e la AI ben fatti, e' Project cars, almeno li anche la AI sbando va fuori strada , sente le sportellate, e saltano  ruote e fascioni o alettoni quando tamponi. Peccato per il modello di guida non proprio al livello di assetto corsa o rfactor 2, altrimenti sarebbe stato il top.
