    Game:

    • Fixed an issue where time allowed to give a position was showing 15 seconds instead of 30.

    • Fixed an issue where players sometimes received a penalty while on grid at the start of MP race.

    • Added a 2 second period during which the yellow flag causer still can be overtaken after he/she has fulfilled the criteria for not causing a yellow anymore.

    • Increased the speed threshold needed to release a yellow flag.

    Multiplayer

    • Added a setting “Stay in Practice Session if Empty” to turn on/off session freeze to dedi. If ON, the server will stay in practice session if it’s empty. If OFF the server will continue to qualifying even if it’s empty.

    • Added a setting “Allow Players Join in Qualifying” to allow/disallow players join during Qualifying. If OFF players can’t join during Qualifying. If ON players can join during Qualifying.

    • Mclaren 650s: Camera update following the steering wheel alignment fix.

    Thank you for the update once again on the yellows. I'll keep my eye out in my online races and see if I get any weird behaviour regarding giving back places.

    I'm stuck at the loading screen (press key to continue) and it just hangs there and does not continue to menu. Tryed with both VR and without same story. :(

    Edit:Clearing my cookies have fixed the issue!

    Is this still the case? Cannot reproduce this problem here. Might have been a fluke we had right after lifting maintenance.

    Oops never mind. It's happening here too. We're on it.

    I don't know what everyone else thinks, but disabling people from joining in Qually makes up for low numbers in players.
    Most people join during the last minutes of qualify.

    I think is for league races and an option to set for the Server!

    And in case a developer answers this, can he also answer if some kind of drift compound can be included? It's a tiny request, but it could make some drivers very happy. :rolleyes:

    I thought this means you can start a server without joining by yourself or anybody else.
    I try this but Maybe i understand this wrong

    Nope, with that setting activated the Practice-Session always restarts after the clock ticked down, as long nobody has actually joined the session. So as long nobody has joined the server, the session never switches to quali or even to race...

    i cant quite fully understand this, would someone care to spell it out to me please....

    • Added a 2 second period during which the yellow flag causer still can be overtaken after he/she has fulfilled the criteria for not causing a yellow anymore.
    and, for instance, will this aid any 1st corner melee's where there might be an incident where 2 or 3 cars collide and spin and then a car further back innocently drives past the stricken cars but ends up being told to give the position back or get a penalty? (as happened to me in a league race)

    Restart your PC, disable Avira and verify the integrity of the game files in Steam.
