Fixed an issue where the Simulator would crash to desktop if the host of a multiplayer Hosted AI Session exited the Session, and then attempted to rejoin the Session.
- - Remember, If the host of a multiplayer Hosted AI Session disconnects from the event, all AI Opponents will disappear. They will reappear on the track in the same place when the host reconnects.Active Reset
Fixed an issue where the car could explode if an Active Reset was run where the car would warp directly through walls, bridges, or track surfaces in order to travel back to its starting location.
Fixed an issue where damage to the left-front wheel was getting applied to all wheels when Active Reset was run. The other three tires are no longer empathetic.
Fixed an issue where explosive forces could be applied if the car was in the process of crashing into objects when Active Reset was run.New Damage Model
Fixed an issue where wheels on some cars were never getting fixed. This was especially noticeable when using the Healing Damage system with these cars, as the damage would immediately occur again after it was healed, leading to an endless cycle of self destruction. The cars repaired with this fix include the following:
- - Dallara iR-01
- - Formula Renault 2.0
- - Mercedes-AMG W12 E Performance
- - Mercedes-AMG W13 E Performance
Fixed an issue where break limits could be inverted after sustaining incremental damage. This could have explosive side-effects.Graphics
