Track layouts to receive AI line redos

i don't know if i have to write this here or in the AI report topic but the stock car 1999 ai is slower then the other classes i have tried, usually i set the ai from 108 to 112, but with the stock car 1999 for a competitive quali + race (top 5 position) i have to set it to 117/118 (max aggression) i tested it at interlagos 93, imola 01 and brands hatch

 

Old Interlagos. The ai is too slow at the kink. Rafas video does show it quite well.

 

Interlagos 91 / 93: The new AI line in V1.5.3.4 provides fantastic racing, but every car touches the grass on the entrance of the Junção corner and leaves a dirt trail. Tested in Formula Classic Gen. 3 and 4. (It didn’t happen in V1.5.3.2.)

 

Gt classics at vir. The ai lifts off at the kink on the pit straight. A video to demonstrate it:

 

Interlagos 93 with the high-tech gen 2. Pretty much every corner gets muddy after 2 laps especially the last turn before the pit straight. Every ai car is clipping the grass on the braking zone which causes the dirt build up there.

Same on Interlagos 91.

 

I hope you will consider another rework of Bathurst, it's currently a significant AI pace outlier. Especially their exit onto Conrod and their last corner is untouchable for the player, and there is significant dirt buildup in T2.

I have to lower my AI strength by around 5-10 every time I tackle the mountain and even then...

 

Finally had the time and tested this, with Montanas, 0 deegree wing. As @Seb02 reported, they BREAK at T1, not just lifting. They are also too fast at T3, impossible speed there. It actually feels like before the supposed redo, it is impossible to have a believable race in this state

 

I was thinking in that and almost wrote something about it in the other thread. Lines are actually ok, in ovals I am (we are, I think) actually reporting relative pace, so perhaps this is not the most accurate thread.

 

I'm glad to see someone mention Imola 2001. I just did a race with the Formula V10 Gen 2 with them at 120% and they were a long way off the pace I could do. They looked slow in Variante Alta (maybe due to not taking the curbs so much?), slow out of Villeneuve (they take a wide like through the left-hander, making the right very tight) and very slow out of Rivazza 2. Similar story when I tried the V10 Gen 1 there as well.

The other issue with Imola 2001 is they consistently drag dirt onto the track in the braking zone for Tamburello. It looks like it happens as they keep on looking to the outside line when near another AI car, so they drive onto the grass. I can't imagine them looking to the outside helps with them trying to overtake in there.

 

Same issues here, seriously hairy moments showing up to the braking zone on lap 2 and finding a beach

 

Don't know if there are plans to have a look at Silverstone 1991 again? I did a report (probably in the wrong thread) because there have been some slow parts.

 

On Interlagos 91/93, Junqao has been fixed but now they're doing it on the entrance into Ferradura, eventually spreading dirt all the way into Pinheirinho.

 

Sorry to be relentless (!) but this bug is ruining racing at Donington and isn't fixed in the latest Beta, so hoping it hasn't been missed;

Spielberg Historic
The AI are extremely slow on turn 4, specially on the exit. They are also a bit slow on turn 6. They break too early and are too slow at turn 8, and are extremely slow at turn 9. This is on both the 1974 and 1977 layouts.

 

Had a single race with the V10 Gen1 at Spa 2020 today.
AI strength 105 - aggressiveness high
10 Laps
Fuel consumption 2x
I was over 1 second faster than the second in qualifying.
In the race I was overtaken by the entire field. It seemed to me that their cars were just as light as in qualifying. But they didn't have to pit.
I also had a safety car for the first time on lap 4 because a car rolled over in the last chicane before start/finish.
From then on, there was another rollover in the same place every lap when the safety car came into the pits. The whole thing was repeated three times until the end of the race. The AI drove too aggressively over the curb and the car always rolled over in the same place.

 

Test it again with AI strength 110 and realistic fuel consumption.
Now the AI strength matched well both in qualifying and in the race.
But what happened again is the problem with the AI in the chicane. Again I had a safety car phase every few laps.

I suspect that the AI didn't go along with the 2x fuel consumption in the first race
