    i start this thread with the idea of know , what kind of features its going to have the multiplayer

    --its going to have a dedicated CFG application builder? that allow to have some presets and server profiles?
    --on the dedicated server from MLS has a million of bugs and places to make the server up and runing , its going to improve the actual dedicated?
    --its going to add through the in game commands like , restart session , next session, kick , ban, and other options like that?
    --the embed web page of the dedicated server its going to be improved? adding features?
    --its going to be a unique file to ser the server FLAGS (restrictions like abs,tc,stability... ) all of the flags of the MLS dedicated server

    Talking about features / options
    --can join during race?
    --reversed grid?
    --mandatory pit window (minutes or laps)?
    --set 2 sprint races and can be combined with the reverse grid?
    --can add wheigth to a car or driver in particular?
    --add a intake restrictor per car or driver?
    --set a fix setup for a car or driver?
    --standarized pit slot for all tracks? like 24 / 32 / 48
    --networks bandwidth calculator?

    for league management its planned to add some race reports and parsed by standard tools or can be included on the dedicated server site to review the past sessions and could be associated to a particular champ?

    Curiosity is getting the better of me.

    Why would you want that feature? I know some sims have it, but what value is there in allowing people to jump into a race in progress? There's the possibility of causing a lag spike and you'll have a non-competitive driver cruising around.

    For the whole grid a nice feature, but why would you want to impose a fixed setup on individual drivers? Talk about unfair. If you're trying to deliberately hamper someone, that's what ballast is for. No need to gimp their entire car.

    ad1. You let the door open for idiots that crash your race.
    ad2. Force default setups is currently possible in MP, so why should it not be in dedicated servers.
    as OPs english is a bit hard to understand, i assume he wants to assign BoP per car and driver, not setups ;)

    joint during the event start its due to the connections problems , as far i know the other game what use this engine , if you lost the connection on the qualy and its less than 5 mins remaining on the session you cant join any more and you miss the race.


    ad1, if the server its for a private ligue allows to minimize this kind of problems
    ad2, yes i mean BOP the car locking some values like turbo pressure,air bride,gear ratios, differential or the driver with ballast wheigth.

    yes sorry for my language im foreign and i cant write Portuguese.
