Bug Reports - Automobilista 2 (Read the Opening Post)

Track & Layout Used: Fontana Oval & Indy Oval, Formula USA 23
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: After 2 pits or so during longer races, the pit crew sends the car out with .30+ bar more tire pressure than set, and its not just cause they're hot. Some also reported that it will only do it every other pit after the first occurrence. This happened to the entire field during our Fontana 200 lap race, and at least half the field during our Indy 500
Steps to reproduce: MP Lobby, normal tire/fuel wear, after 2 stops or more the tire pressures come out wrong even if you're using the same custom preset. Signs of this bug have been around since 2021 when we ran a Daytona 2.4 hour and DDF got minimal tire pressures when he had it set correctly in a preset.

 

Track & Layout Used: Fontana Ovall, Formula USA 23
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: Not sure if this is ping related but there seems to be a track defect on Turn 3-4 at Fontana. One raced bottomed out the car which caused him to go airborne.
Steps to reproduce: N/A

 

disregard, double post.

 

Track & Layout Used: (not relevant)
Car Used: (not relevant)
Applicable Settings: Race with some AI
Report: AI false start by getting into reverse gear, maybe this is a feature ? (major driver error?)

 

Track & Layout Used: (not relevant)
Car Used: BMW M6 GT3
Applicable Settings: (not relevant)
Report: In the extended setup you can crank up the "Slow Rebound" to 223! (should be 23 i guess)
Steps to reproduce: I think it's always there
Version 1.5.0.5

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Formula Inter (maybe others, too)
Applicable Settings: Race
Report: When in pits, game does not give you the choosen tyre pressure but just any!

I have set a certain tyre pressure in my pitstop settings, saved the strategy and picked it for the race. Then before pitting, I also checked whether the right strategy was there in the ICM. But I did not get the tyre pressure I wanted to have, though.
In the first screenshot, you see what I had set in my strategy, in the second, what the pressure actually was after tyre change.

 

I think the pressure in the menu is cold pressure, and when it drops on track its higher as the tires are warm. But there is a pit bug pressure issue though, generally its a more dramatic change than this.

 

Track & Layout Used: Any
Car Used: Formula Inter (maybe others, too)
Applicable Settings: Race against AI, 20 minutes, two weather slots (sunny/rain, 5x weather progression):
Report: AI does not have any proper tyre strategy at all, it is all coincidence

Did two races with this settings, in both, the track was wet in second half of the race.

Race 1: No mandatory stop. Most AI stayed out on slicks the whole race, the track was completely soaked, though. Just crawling around and losing much time instead of changing tyres.

Race 2: 1 mandatory tyre stop. All AI pitted once, but half of the field in early stages of the race when it still was dry. They all changed to slicks again and then, when track was completely wet, decided to stay out instead of doing a second stop, without having any change to have a proper lap and compete with the other half of the field which came in later (when it rained) for wets.

AI should pit when situation on track makes it necessary, no matter if mandatory stops are activated or not:
Wet weather- Wets (If those cars do not have all weather-tyres)
Dry weather - Slicks/Dry tyres

The way it is now makes races in changing weather conditions rather worthless.

 

Track & Layout Used: seems to happen in any track
Car Used: Copa Classic B (any car)
Applicable Settings: Any
Report: Sky starts flashing in VR as cars jump into the pits during an online MP race.
Steps to reproduce: Have cars dive into the pits during a MP race, other cars that drive by the pits will see the sky flash black. If far away from the pits the sky doesn't flash, only seems to happen close to pits.

 

Please just remove the car jacking up in the pits if this bug is causing difficulty to fix.
Having the car raise up in the pit box is less important than having an immersive experience on track.
With a sim as pretty as this, when people see cars floating above the track it ruins the experience and I'm seeing it in almost half the races I'm involved in.
If I had the choice to prioritise 1 bug fix, this would be it.
Thanks.

 

Track: Imola historic 1972
Car: Any formula
Settings: With any setting except the absolutely hardest springs - that only minimise it
Report: Since day one there has been an unrealistic hole in the mesh. And if it has been there in RL all drivers would have been killed

 

Track: Imola historic 1972
Car: formula Reiza
Settings: TT Mode
Report; I thought this BUG which has been from day one was solved 2 upd back. But it has returned.

 

Track & Layout Used: N/A
Car Used: N/A
Applicable Settings: Saved Replay (about 1h long)
Report: I am getting a message in replay theatre saying the gallery is full but there should only be one replay in there as I deleted loads of not needed replays anymore and it says I don't have any saved replays.

 

Could it be that you have to completely restart the game before the free space is recognised?

 

I did restart it multiple times. It also occurred after rebooting my PC entirely. Maybe there are still some leftovers in the directory where replays are saved? But I don't know where that is either.

 

They are in:
C:\Users\yourname\Documents\Automobilista 2\savegame\xxxxxx\automobilista 2\media

 

Thanks, there were still 102 .MED files from pretty much every replay I ever saved in there despite deleting them in the gallery. Deleted them and now it works again.

But I still wonder why it keeps all of these files in there even after deleting

 

I noticed that F-Classic Gen3 Model 3 car (FW13B lookalike) have misaligned tires. They are pointing slightly right. All tires in the same direction.
