AMS2 Dedicated Server Tool / SteamCMD Support

Yeah, also having the host changed a lot doesnt help stability it seems, but have 1 guy with a high ping does affect everyone

 

it only changed after a restart, we done that on purpose, the experience when racing was pretty solid still though, no warping etc etc

 

Yeah, apart from the flying/invisible car bug, it can be quite solid

 

I want to create a race with 16 drivers. Up to 12 of them should be real, the other 4 should be AI drivers, so Grid Size=16 and Max Players=12. There is an option to fill up the grid with AI drivers but it doesnt work. The starting grid shows only two drivers. Any hint how to solve this?
For my specific config I attach the server.cfg, hope it helps.

how much difference does making the server tick rate faster? i'm using emporer server manager and it says it was every 60ms which seems rather slow

 

yueah i was surprised to see it as 60 and 120

i have set it to ten, i have a mini pc 4 core n5105 11th gen who's only job is literally this one game server at a time, do you have any recommended setting for it regarding server tick rate? i assume it'll be more than enough for sim racing servers

 

Has anyone noticed variable weather has stopped working in multiplayer?
We've been able to replicated this consistently during our multiplayer races as our group tends to do a lot of dynamic weather races. It doesn't matter if a race is based on number of laps or timed, the issue persists. The weather doesn't change if you have 2 or more weather slots selected. It keeps the weather that was selected in the 1st weather slot through out the entire race.
We noticed this happening after the massive physics update. At 1st I thought it was just a fluke but it's been consistently happening when we setup multiplayer races on the DS with more than 1 weather slot.
In the pre-race lobby, you can see multiple weather slots set up,
eg: Light cloud 1st slot to light rain 2nd slot.
Which means the settings are being done correctly on the server. It's not the 1st time I've done dynamic weather races, I've been using this feature since the PCars2 days. And the races are 25mins or longer, so it's not because the race is too short.
But once the race starts the game just ignores all those slots and keeps the weather pattern selected in the 1st slot. I'm hoping a fix comes out as soon as this is verified, it's one of my favorite part of multiplayer races.

 

I will check it out, we have been using "real weather" with the current date & that's working on our servers with rain turning to lite clouds and ice-cold temps with brown grass and no leaves on trees at red bull ring in our "same day/date as real" last race ..

 

what does it mean when players show as [unknown]?

when i click on their name it shows their profile fine but in the mp game it says unknown. really get fed up with this MP experience now, our first league is not a great experience so far

 

We did a 45 minute testrace yesterday for the upcoming community cup, during the race we had 4 weather slots, set them to sync to race, and we had weather changes, slot 1 was dry, slot 2 was rain, slot 3 was overcast, slot 4 was clear again, all worked as it should, started in the dry, then we had rain, then the track dried again.

Only thing i can think of why it doesn't work for you is maybe you havent set it to sync to race, as i think it can stick at slot 1 for a long time.

 

Thanks, that might be it. I had the weather progression set to "1" -Realtime instead of "0" -Sync To Race. Thanks for the heads up gents.

 

@Roy Niessink that was it! I'm an idiot. We did a weather race last night and it worked wonderfully. Thanks so much.
@Dave Stephenson thanks for the info on weather slots.

 

Hi
We have a dedi Server running the Nordschleife.
Unfortunately, people are always disconnected from the server.
At the moment we really have no idea why that is.
Does anyone know the problem or even has a solution?

We would be really grateful for help.!!!!!!

 

well our first season has finished, horrible laggy experience, i doubt i'll be bothering with another one

 

I dont share that experience, but we have only people with fairly low pings, lower then 100 in our races in general, biggest issue for us is the floating/invisible car issues.

Do you have people with higher pings in your races?

 

Does everyone get disconnected or just some people, we notice very rarely people getting disconnected, not sure what could cause it

 

yes we have a couple ppl from over the pond, plus we had someone invisable at one point, this whole system is just crap, i'm done with it, seems like you get better performance by just creating lobbies in game without the server, but then you have no way of doing a league unless 100% manually
