Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

I'm having this problem with several cars since the initial release, i can't pull out of the pits the rear wheel spin & just slowly plowes forward steering does nothing. Is this a known bug/issue i'm surprised to see this not fixed.

 

A bug I have noticed, I assume it is a bug and not a missing feature ATM and that is that when you change the race from laps to time you cannot select mandatory pitstop, it is not greyed out but you cannot change it to "yes".

 

I am 99% sure this is related to certain controller brakes defaulting to full on instead of matching the pedal and being full off (which is true for the accelerator and clutch). Please check this by using the Telemetry HUD where the pedal input is shown.

You may also get a similar issue in TT where when you start the trial, a big puff of smoke will emerge momentarily from the skidding tire.

Usually, when you engage a gear, it "releases" the brake pedal to normal (matching what is actually pressed). Time Trial doesn't give any opportunity to do this as it launches you.

Please confirm about the pedal input and how often you get stuck in the pit garage. There may also be pedal calibration or dead zone issues that affect this, but let's try to provide Reiza with more info so they can fix it!

 

The new Passatão is crashing on loading screens.

 

Track & Layout Used: Ibarra
Car Used: P2
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: Tyre Temperatures for Inner, Middle, Outer reported through the Shared Memory differ (completely off) to the reported on the on-screen Telemetry
Steps to reproduce:
Pre-Conditions:

• Using SimHub Dashboard
• Shared Memory: Project Cars 2

Steps:

1. Display game Telemetry
2. Display SimHub telemetry
3. Go out on a lap with any car (used P2 in this test)
4. Compare Tyre Temperatures Inner, Middle, Outer reported in game Telemetry screen to exported values from in game Shared Memory
5. In Game Telemetry:
6. Game Shared Memory exported temperatures:

 

Project Cars 2 shared memory telemetry data does not have I/M/O values for tyre temps. Only values are as follows: Tread Temp, Layer Temp, Carcass Temp, Rim Temp, Internal Air Temp.

SimHub does not have explicit values for them so is mapping them to I/M/O like this:

Inner - Rim Temp
Middle - Layer Temp
Outer - Carcass Temp

Bug is with SimHub, not AMS2

ETA Bug is that AMS2 should include IMO temps in shared memory structure.

Hello,

regards
Alex
Nothing I think ran several sessions same thing
last 1 EA online

 

Hi,
just want to report that sequential shifters dont work (yet). Neither the Heuskinveld nor the fanatec.
Its possible to assign'em but it has no efect in-track, only the paddle shifters (fanatec Formula V2) and the H-patern (fanatec H-shifter) work, no sequentials.
Thanks

 

Yes same for me all cars at this track

 

I just updated to v0.9 and did a race at Oulton Park in the Roco. At the end of the race I drove the cooldown lap then entered the pits. The AI took over driving in the pitlane then drove back out onto the track and drove two more cooldown laps, so I pressed ESC to end the session.

At the end of a race I usually watch the replay so that I can record it, but in this case I was unable to watch the replay (apart from the last lap) because the race continued with the AI stuck in a never ending loop of cooldown laps???

 

AI still is extremely fast in some classes even on 20%. Much faster than best times in time trial.

 

Could we have an example please. 20% seems low to beat TT but interesting

 

Build: v0.9.1.0
Track & Layout Used: Oulton Park - International layout
Car Used: P3 Roco001 with P3 Class Ai
Applicable Settings: Single Race, all default, P3 class cars, Ai skill=120, Aggression=70 to 98, default setup.
Report: Something fundamentally wrong with Roco001 Ai and overall P3 slowdown.

When racing the Ai at Oulton Park the Roco001 is very slow - about 5-6 seconds a lap than me. If racing identical cars with 15 cars, I can start at the back and be 1st before the first corner.

If racing in same class with 15 cars any of the cars behind the Roco001 smash in to the back of them at the start.

This was happening before the v0.9.1.0 update
All P3's are now also slower then before the v0.9.1.0 update (this has added about 1 second to the Ai)

I am averaging 1:34.000 laps
The Ai Roco001 is doing about 1:40.000
The "faster" Ai P3 class is doing about 1:36.000, "average" Ai is about 1:37.000

Race, All P3 Roco, Ai 120, Agg 70 (I was only cruising)


Same Class, no qualifying, Start of Race. Roco in air, very slow start, smashed in to from behind.


Same Class, P3's, I'm in a Roco001, after 20 minutes qualifying


The Ai Roco's are the bottom 3 cars


This difference between me and the Ai is also in the P4 class but not so extreme.

The Chicanes and slow corners seem to be a big problem for the Ai - almost coming to a complete stop and then slow exit.

I get similar results at Donnington National.

I have also tried different aggression (This just seems to "bunch" the Ai's best times closer together). and different Skill, (as I am using 120 this just slows the Ai down as expected - at 100 the Ai are another 2 seconds slower.)

Steps to reproduce: Race any track with the P3's, Roco only and then same class. The start of the race is best to show the Roco issue.

 

Not a bug, per sè, but something to be fixed after everything else is, maybe..

You only really notice when in VR, but it takes something away from the immersion, seeing your body going into the car structure like that.

basically the driver model’s legs are straight, when they should have the knees right up to steering column. You shouldn’t even be seeing your own feet.

 

Probably the easiest way is to show some videos of what's happening.

I'm not sure i fully understand what you are suggesting i'm no mechanic.
What i do find strange is its not consistently the same wheel or wheels that's locked even with the same car. It does matter if i'm pulling out of the pits it happens whenever i standing start. Sometimes the wheels will just release but this seems random to me.
I also try auto clutch but no joy.

 

Formula Classic Gen2 Kyalami 19: TT Leader 1:33
Best AI in Qualifying at 20%: 1:32:5

BTW: Strange behaviour in Stock Cars, watched them drive in my monitor, different strengths between 0(!) and 90% at Spielberg GP, the drove the same laptimes.

 

@Neil Rosson when I had that issue I had to increase the brake pedal dead zone to 12. The brake pedal was just being recognised as being held down with the default deadzone. You can check it using the telemetry screen. B channel is the brake this is showing my brake pedal holding the brakes on.

 

Build: v0.9.1.0
Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: F Classic Gen2 and Gen3 (did not try all cars yet)
Huge stuttering when an AI pits during race. Every time an AI enters pits, there is a short stuttering. Many AI in pits > many stutters. Does not happen during training or qualifying, just in races. Did not occur in Version 0.8.
