    From what I experienced so far, I did not see any yellows on map nor waved in practice session. You do see them however in quali or race. But then, there are some quirks that makes you question whether or not it is fully and correctly implemented.

    For instance, yesteray had a 20 minutes quali + 10 races at Imola with F12. Durring middle quali, light rain started only for a couple minutes in sector 1 and it remained wet toward the end of quali. I saw frequently map+waved yellow flags, even double yellow flags and I was able to correlate this by drivers going of track / crashing due to sliding on the puddles. I can't confirm however yellows were waved for every single crash...

    Then, during race, nothing to mention except that at lap #2 and toward the end of the race, there was a yellow flag on map 100% of the time but no yellow flag waved at all. Not sure what it's supposed to mean or whether it is a bug.

    From my experience, blue flags works ok too but it's been a while I haven't had the chance to ever see them :p

    Normally it would end up as being a race incident and case is closed, you go on with the race. I guess some people take this a little bit too seriously, unfortunately. Shame indeed.

    You missed something in the replay. look for member 3 passing member 1 in the long straight toward middle of the race :whistle:

    What does this mean? yellow on map?? I have mapped all flags to SimHub and if they pop up on the HUD in the flag area it also pops up on my SimHub dash but i only ever see green for race start and blue for faster cars. There can be very big crashes or even me parking on the track to trigger a yellow but nothing occurs.

    I mean by yellow on map: you see the flag on the track map in the HUD (there will be a yellow rectangle on the circuit portion where the flag occurs), but as I said in my post it does not always correlate into a flag being waved (flag is waved in the flag area on the HUD). I have SimHub too and it correctly activate my flags led when they occur, provided that the flag is waved in the first place.

    I've only seen single yellow flags, which sometimes stay on the map for the entire duration of the race.
    Also, ignoring the flag did not seem to trigger any penalty of some sort. I made an accidental overtake under yellow flag, as a crashed happen right in front of me, but wasn't punished.

    What are you, red or black flagged?
    Hopefully not blue flagged which means: go away, there's another one ;)

    Mmmm probably black with orange circle, at my age.

    Does anybody Know if we have the full compliment of flags in the sim atm.
    ie red and yellow stripes would be appropriate for ie thunderstorm/rain at Interlagos historic were the deeper puddles do not drain,


    Super cup sounds good Max. hope u see it

    The Madness Engine is capable of indicating almost all flags, yes. Green, blue, yellow, double-yellow, red, meatball...but i never saw yellow with red stripes.
    You also see yellow flags on the track map of the HUD, like mentioned and it works in AMS2. The way, flags are handled were never that "exciting" in racing sims to begin with, though. AMS2 is not the biggest exception here, yet. :D

    Okay that's a good sign, I wonder what it takes to trigger it? As I've said, I've had some pretty big incidents and no yellows.
    I can't ATM unfortunately.

    If you look into SimHub it shows green, yellow, white, meatball, black and blue. I don't think I missed any but all those are available and used by the madness engine.

    "Meatball" black and orange?
    Would be nice at some point, Damage return to pit for those that run "damage on" and sustain some, could be good addition, tempt people to take more care!
    _yes I guess yellow/red "slippery surface" usually used for oil but also for slippery wet.

    Will see what we get tonight if possible.

    I quite enjoyed the rfactor 2 Marshalls waving flags before I made the jump to ams2. It would be amazing if something like that came in especially as I play with the hud off.

    Meatball is black with orange dot, yes. You get it shown, when you have too much damage.

    I know, but i meant, i never saw it in any racing simulation.

    Ohhh wish the 'meatball'-flag was a thing in MP-races, but people quit anyway when they have received some sort of damage, lol.
