Custom Championship - List of Current Issues (v1.2.0.2)

azaris · Dec 2, 2021

I mean, have ANY of the bugs related to CC reported in this thread over and over been fixed? The textures bugging out when using real weather? The AI stealing your livery? The CC never ending and letting you run the final race over and over again?

In the Championship itself make sure Race Distance Scale is at 100%

Finally updated the thread to 1.3.0.1.
If you guys have something regarding the Custom Championships here.

DISCLAIMER: I'm fully aware that the Custom Championship is a W.I.P. (BETA) and, as expected, there are issues regarding the feature. I'm just gonna list those that I've found to make it easier for devs to know what issues are still present.

But, before listing stuff, I must say that this feature with the new Real Weather system is surreal! Setting multiple races on different dates, having to consider the track's climate characteristics on that particular season, and the unpredictability of Weather is just superb and creates a real tension on strategies and Race Sessions.

However, there are some issues that are still holding this mode back - listing from the top of my head here:

FIXED! - Adjusting sessions for Rounds 6 and higher is broken: It seems that the UI always refers to the first 5 rounds (as there are 5 visible slots on-screen) so if you're editing the 6th round, you might notice that the dates don't match and, instead, you're editing the 5th round. A workaround is to move the latter rounds to the 5th position, edit them, and then send them back to their desired spot - this works as it doesn't interfere with the other rounds when you change the order.

FIXED! - Time Progression isn't working: Don't bother with Time Progression - it'll always set to "Real Time", despite any changes you make on the Round Selection. Once you start the champ, the game kinda resets the Time Progression to the mentioned. I was going to run some endurace races with 10x the Time Progression, only to realize in the first round that the time was still the same as the starting one (it was supposed to be night, as I was replicating a 12 hour race). The Weather, however, is working as intended.

FIXED! - Refueling is "banned": It seems that, no matter what type of Point System/Regulation I choose, there's no way to refuel cars mid-race, making Endurace Races impossible unless you remove Fuel Comsumption. I guess it has to do with the fact that the "Base Champ" that the game chooses is the F3, which refuelling is banned.

FIXED! - Championships doesn't end: Reported by multiple users, it seems that Championships doesn't end after the last round, instead you (seem to) go back to the Main Menu, and once you go to Championship menu, the last race is still there available to be raced.

FIXED! - Rounds doesn't inform if Pit Stops are Mandatory: Reported by a few users here, there's no visual description on the Round menu (when racing the championship) if the pit stop is mandatory or not.

No Class Based Point System: There are no class based point system, so beware when making Multi-Class Championships as you might leave the lower class cars almost without any points.

AI doesn't pit for tyres because of Tyre Wear: I've done a few endurace races with Fuel Consumption turned off (until Refuelling gets enabled again) and I've noticed that the AI simply refuses to pit when the tyres are gone (bono...). Their tyres wil "pop" and they will go stupidly slow on track, and still refuse to pit. They'll only pit if the weather changes, pit stop is mandatory (which doesn't apply for timed races) or if fuel is running out - but because we doesn't have refuelling and I've removed fuel consumption, they just go AWOL in regards of pitting.

Mandatory Pit Stops "opens on the Wrong Lap": Setting up Mandatory Pit Stops on the Custom Championships leads to a very interesting scenario. The Mandatory Pit Stop is working as intended, and you can pit at anytime and it'll count.
Problem is that for the AI, the Mandatory Pit Stop will always open on the final lap of the race. This means that even if they pit early, the AI will always pit on the final lap. This bug can be noticed when using external Apps, such as CrewChief, which will indicate the "Pit Window to open on lap [numer of laps - 1]".

I know that there are a lot of things missing as well, such as choosing the amount of cars per class, custom point system, but with this thread I just wanted to point out the most critical issues regarding the mode and, in the hopes that the next update we see fixes for some, or all items mentioned above.

Again, I'm fully aware that the mode is a W.I.P., and I've been having a lot of fun with this and plan to mess around with it on different levels. This is just a "bullet point" list for the devs to be aware of the most critical points of the feature.

Feel free to add anything in regards to the mode. And please, add your current game version when reporting your issues to know if they are still present or they were fixed on a future patch.

Also, need to keep in mind that this is much more of a "bug report" thread instead of a "wishlist of features". Things such as "I can't add custom driver names" or "I wish I could set the amount of cars per class individually" are things that the game still doesn't have and it's already being considered/developed. In this thread we need to post things that are in-game already, they just don't work as intended or not at all.

Have a nice drive!

I have spotted an issue with the mandatory pit stops. When setting 1 stop and min 4 tyres and saving each round like that, the number of tyres goes to 0 for each race. The AI cars pit but I change 4 tyres and they change none which makes the AI stops faster.

It's the same for the livetrack preset. It always reverts to natural progression for every session.
