30-06-2017 - Fixed issue with long loading times. Known issue: If a player leaves in race 1, other players will end up in black screen after session switch into race 2. We are investigating the problem but in the meantime we suggest you avoid multi format races if possible.
#1 is the one Sonat meant, when you have a 2nd (and/or 3rd) race activated there will likely be some funky server behaviour.
Okay, then the problem you get from SRU (Sim Racing United) is another problem. https://forum.sector3studios.com/in...fter-one-driver-disconnects.8481/#post-121975 Is it for you guys not an idea to create a Beta version (just like Automobilista), the last updates seems to bring a lot of frustrations. And the people remember only the bad things more than the good things, wich Sector3 brings ofcours a lot. Keep up the good work.
Yep, that's a new issue, seems like the disconnect made the server crash for some reason. Well, we do have internal builds which we try to test as thoroughly as we can before the patch is supposed to go live. But especially with hotfixes like this one they have to weigh the pros and the cons because they have to decide between fixing the urgent issue (long loading times in this case) quickly and doing in-depth testing before pushing the patch. And it's a sad fact, but with every feature they include there's more possibilities for bugs to creep in.
The long wait with a black screen also happened in a RD race with no multi format active on Thursday evening. At a guess i would say a few of us were waiting anything up to 4 to 5 minutes for it to eventually load us into the server.
Most likely due to that issue they addressed with this hotfix. The black screen issue that is mentioned as known is different, it never actually progresses to the 2nd race. And even if it does there's a chance of the second race not working properly, so as suggested by Sonat it's best to avoid those settings for now.
