UKAC Season 2 - Imola Trackday - Dec 14

Would it be possible for us to run that minorator app that stops drivers who aren't status A&b? Just a thought.

Anything is possible but where do I find it and what happens to those who've never used it? I don't want to be locked out of my own server!

[Mark J]

Umm, not sure but RRL used it and I wasn't locked out first time I joined their server and I never go on public servers to earn the status  Brocookie would know more about it.

Scratch the BMW, it's way slower, so no idea how they got the laptimes.

And that 2-11 sinds like a vacuum cleaner, I quit driving it after half a lap, it's horrible 

[Jeffrey]

There is another invalid laptime on the server. If you look at the lap comparison, you can clearly see he didn't brake where others have.

It might be best, for now, to just perma-ban anyone who is pissing about.

I think opening the server up to the public during the week has worked really well. Its opened the doors to new people but we will get the odd prat joining now and again, but since all of us here are like "admin" if we see anything we can just report it here and they are gone within a couple hours..

It also might be worth adding in the Start Message that people seen abusing track limits etc will be banned for 24hrs or such.

I think its important that people can join the server and be happy that its a clean and fair place to race, knowing that the rif-raf is taken care of..

I also think now is a good time to push the public awareness of this site as much as possible.. Has anyone ever gone online and seen the massive servers full of racing... no me neither.. its either nords trackdays or booked servers with nobody racing, If we all do our bit to just use the server to practice rather than using offline it will keep bringing people into the server. It doesn't take long before 1 makes 2, and then before you know it there are 10 people racing on line.. 

One suggestion i do have is to remove the Practice and just make Qualifying 2 hours long.

[Mark J]

Good idea on the start message, I think we should also have our stracker timestat link on it to encourage drivers to check where they stand, plus they would see our srouk banner then too and may be intrigued enough to check our site out.

And, ahem the message screen is currently blank on the server  

One thing I like about this trackday theme is its nice trying various cars back to back. I tried the gt4 but it was much slower than the gt3 and Nissan or SLS. I know a few gt4 owners who might dispute that!

although i dont really condone that website for actual facts it does show a massive difference.

16.   Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991)   unknown   7:20.00

25.   KTM X-Bow R   Christopher Haase   7:25.00

55.   Nissan GT-R Spec-V (R35)   unknown   7:34.46

73.   Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG   Horst Von Saurma   7:40.00

77.   Porsche Cayman GT4 (981)   Christian Gebhardt   7:42.00

So they'll get pen and paper out to copy down a much more complex URL to look at timing rather than visit the web site (where it's all available)

And, ahem the message screen is currently blank on the server  

It's there for me. Spanner thought it was completely missing last week but when I checked it was there. Either there is a bug in the game or you guys are not looking properly.

[picnic]

Of course the other thing we could do is enable the slowdown penalty stuff for 2 wheels off track rather than the 4 currently allowed

[ChrisR]

Noooooooooooooooooooo

[Mark J]

Ah true Pete, I was thinking they can copy/paste it but guess you can't really. Forget my ramblings.

Odd about the message page. I went on the server twice this morning and it was blank both times. I use triples and think spanner does too so might be that  but no idea why a message would disappear for them as I don't lose any other info.

[Mark J]

Found some info on the minorator mod, have a read Pete and see if it might work here or too much aggro.

Wil try and get on the server tonight finally for some meaningful practise, blinking real life is consuming me at the moment  :'(

It seems that more people want to drive the Porsche from the posts so far so would it be better to adjust the available cars. I think it safe to safe the KTM may not be so popular, or even the Audi so is it not worth increase the available count for the Porsche to say 6 and reducing the others to account?
