Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Is there something I can do to fix this?

 

This will also happen when you have a controller that wasn't connected when you set up the profile...

For example if I leave my xbox controller in it'll screw up the entire profile and I have to start from scratch...

 

We are reporting here so the people who can fix it have plenty of details.

 

True

 

Version: V1.4.5.2
Track: Spielberg Historic no chicane
Car: FRetroG1
Applicable settings: Single Race(though it might happen in all modes), Random weather, sync to race
Report: When the track dried enough for slicks, the AI would pit but not change tires, happened every lap.

 

Just to confirm, the broken suspension is also the case for Formula Vintage Gen 1 Model 2

 

Crossing pitlane penalty error (from within garage)

Track & Layout Used: Buenos Aires #12
Car Used: M1 Procar
Applicable Settings: Qualifying - Pitboxes 2 and 3 (possibly more)
Report: League race (24 drivers)
The drivers in pitboxes 2 and 3 (I think, they are not numbered - pitboxes closest to pit entry) were getting warnings and then penalties for crossing pitlane while still in their garage.
Warnings appeared first then grid penalties were applied.
One driver lost 2 grid positions, the other 3 grid positions from consistent crossing pitlane warnings as soon as they selected Drive after returning to their pitbox.

Steps to reproduce: 24 drivers, qualifying session, M1 procar, drivers in the garages nearest pitlane entry select drive

 

Track & Layout Used: Cadwell Park (but the issue is common across the circuits to varying degrees)
Car Used: JCW Mini
Applicable Settings: Clear (but the issue is common across the different conditions to varying degrees)
Report: AI Strength when at 120 is very weak
Steps to reproduce: Drive a quick race with the JCW Mini at Cadwell Park and drive away from them at 3.5secs + per lap.. in a 40 min race, you could lap the field.

Suggestion (from a layman's perspective):
The delta time used for 120 difficulty be the world record time for that particular track and class combination.
As circuit conditions for that world time are known, the lap time could be used as the benchmark for 120 difficulty, and then adjusted to suit lower difficulty levels and/or conditions.

Doing this will mean that the relative difficulty will move with the development of car set-up and driver ability of those playing the game across the globe.

It would mean that even the very best in the world will be able to race the AI and get a proper race.
Even an alien could set it to 120 and expect to be in the mid-field slogging it out, or set it to 118 or so and they can be fighting at the front and chasing the win down.

I really think this development could add value to your platform.

 

same problem. Solution found?

 

was never activated. Windows reinstalled. Turned off core isolation, turned off xmp, reinstalled game, drivers up to date. only ams2 and pc2 the problem. I love Ams but it makes it impossible to play. Hardware 12700k, 4090, 1000w

 

This happens with a lot of cars..

Personally I think a quicker fix would be to open up the difficulty range up to 200 as they'd have to tune the AI to each track and tune each car to that tracks current WR...

 

I certainly agree that the ability to up the value further would potentially be a quicker solution to implement. I'd be happy with this approach also.

 

Track & Layout Used: Interlagos (Brazil used in video, affects all tracks though)
Car Used: Formula USA Gen 3 (Although not limited to those, as I noticed it happening to the Formula Classic Gen 3 cars too)
Applicable Settings: I haven't found a setting that doesn't cause this to happen. It is most prevalent when monitoring from the pits or spectating as race director/broadcaster, however.
Report: Cars appear to be bouncing as if they are clipping through the track and then reappearing rapidly, causing the spectator to view a very odd display. Appears when driving, but not as noticeable.
Steps to reproduce: Go into any session with the formula USA Gen 3 cars and monitor other players driving around, try hood and first person cameras for biggest effect. You will notice the bouncing.

Video evidence (ignore sound, we were goofing): AMA Indycar Glitches - Google Drive
First video shows it at 20 seconds. Second video shows it at 56 seconds.

Edit: A highlight video from our preseason testing event, the bounciness is pretty extreme.

 

Track & Layout Used: I tested in Imola and Silverstone
Car Used: F1 Ultimate 2019
Applicable Settings: In single race or championship mode
Report: happens when you brake not in practice mode
Steps to reproduce:As seen in the video, it happens when you do hard braking

 

Version: 1.4.5.2
Track & Layout Used: ANY TRACK
Car Used: FORMULA CLASSIC GEN 4 - MCLAREN
Applicable Settings: setup stock
Report: the car with the standard setup is easily 2 seconds behind the other cars in the category

 

F-USA all Gens
Indianapolis Oval
Race against AI

Lapping backmarkers can turn into a nightmare on this track. The start going side by side in front of you, breaktest you in corners (especially in T3), cross your line when you try to pass, move over to your side and ram you. AI drives as if they were completely blind. They although can be fast on the straight after T2 despite their poor entry. They also constantly ram each others on highspeed without suffering from damage, whilst player immediately has to pit for a repair in such a case.
If someone drives like the AI in MP, he would be kicked from server.

 

Version: 1.4.5.2
Track & Layout Used: VIR
Car Used: DPi & GTE
Applicable Settings: Server hosted through Just Race, 20 drivers 40 minute race...
Report: Multiple large warps throughout the races 3 of them had major off track incidents before returning to their actual lines...

 

Subject: All FWD cars
Problem: The force on the front axle and thus on the steering axle is much too high. It is felt much more clearly on dds with high forces. I hope Reiza will change it in physics
