    Include a ffb effect for gear changes, like raceroom does. Probably not realistic, but I think its nice. Would need to be enabled optionally of course, maybe even only available in custom ffb files.

    You can get this by using shakers through simhub, is a great effect, I love it. Certainly not realistic through the steering wheel, not sure if it is through shakers as well.
    I can drive without ffb but can't without my shakers.

    Hi, I have 2 questions:
    -is it planned to allow the change of steering wheel and config during a race?

    -is it still relevant to offer Ranked servers like Raceroom, because I have the impression that there are fewer and fewer people online, and fewer and fewer lobby with Ranked

    I have bass shakers , I think it feels good in the steering wheel as well. Just personal preference. Maybe if its not a big job to feed this to the wheel force feedback then why not make in option. Or maybe its not worth the effort.

    Feature Request 1: Raise current limit of 32 cars in a race
    I remember from the PC2 days that the maximum of 32 cars was at that time motivated by CPU consumption and probably also comparability to the console versions. Maybe it is possible to raise this limit (with a warning to the user of high CPU usage) nowadays. Would be just perfect to drive with a large multi-class field into the rising morning sun on the Nordschleife, after managing the long night stints ... :)
    Feature Request 2: Flag management and race control
    Maybe in the future it is possible to transfer the mechanisms from oval racing flag management (FCY, etc.) to classic endurance racing as on the Nordschleife or Spa (slow zones, double yellows). Would be also nice, if the AIs get sometimes a drivethrough due to some "misbehavior" (track limits, pit stops, flags ...).

    These two things, combined with the dynamic weather and track system we already have, would just bring it to the next level of immersion regarding endurance racing. Keep up the good work, Reiza!

    Perhaps this is not a feature, but a bug. In any case: it should be impossible to set up a lobby that does not allow to refuel. Here are two examples:
    • I ended up in a lobby in Long Beach (15 mins) with the Camaro and I could take a maximum of 21 liters of fuel and I was not allowed to pit for fuel, but 21 liters was only sufficient to drive for half of the session (not 15 mins). There were only a few players who drove very slowly to finish the race by pushing each other. All the other players, including me, had to retire and everybody (except me) left the session.
    • I ended up in a lobby where i didn't get the starting screen after qualification to change fuel. The race immediately started with the fuel amount of qualification and I was not allowed to pit for fuel for some reason. Had to retire.

    Return to pit only with car instead of pressing ESC.
    If not returning to pit with car (because of laziness or accident) session is over, like in real life.

    PLEEEEASE, inverted and mirrored versions of all tracks, even if there is no AI there.

    I'm echoing another recent post but I'm in a friendly league that currently uses RaceRoom and we are considering moving to AMS2. Our main issue right now would be the inability to use reverse grids so being able to set up multiple race events with reverse grids and different lengths for each race would be a much appreciated feature.

    It would be nice (and historically accurate) to have more grid slots at the historic Spielberg layouts (currently limited to 20). In the '70s and '80 F1 grids there varied from around 24 to 29.

    As one of 12 tracks currently in game from the 1986 F1 calendar - it's a shame to have to cut the grid of 26 down :)

    Edit: Also this is especially problematic if you include Spielberg historic (or Azure) in a custom 1986 F1 championship for example, as the number of opponents for the championship is apparently limited to the smallest grid size on the schedule.

    Maybe I’m totally crazy but I don’t want unrealistic, mirrored or fictional tracks in AMS2. Although I like them in other titles (Assetto Corsa for example). I even play arcade racers with fictional tracks (Forza Horizon, …).
    Don’t know why I have a problem with them in AMS2…:confused:o_O:eek::oops::rolleyes:

    What is the problem in add an option over something that is already there? It's not like I'm asking to Reiza waste their time to remodel any track, add a new one or even forcing anyone to drive on these. It's like more options to those who care and that will not prejudice everyone else.

    I don’t know what the problem is. As I already wrote: maybe I’m totally crazy but I don’t want mirrored or fictional tracks in AMS2… But I don’t have to decide this anyway… :D

    You know you don't have to use them, right? :)
    That's what I do, drive the tracks I like, ignore the tracks I don't like.

    Can we have a 2.0L engine option added to the Formula Trainer Advanced?

    AI mandatory pit stop lap in custom AI file. Ideal AI pitstop lap start and random window pit. Example: AI pit lap 10 with a random window of 3 laps and AI makes pit stop between 10-13 lap. Or also only mandatory pit lap = 10.

    Like in RF2, add the view option that renders front tires and suspension only.
    In the video you can see what I mean (game is RF2).
