Why don't you post spr replay file? Or why don't you try with automatic clutch, then you will see where is the problem.
Champions of Fern Bay - 9397 Racing

Champions of Fern Bay is a series of single events created spontaneously. No sign up, no point system etc. However, the wish is that you join the event in time - the server may be passworded and midrace joining will not be possible.

So far I have planned only first round which is:


Track is loaded on the server currently with several car options. Car selection will be restricted to event specs later.

first laps was total lottery. I didnt understand how I was leading at some point. I really wanted LFS radar here but forgot to enable it. Really sorry for Eza on lap4, I think either of us was aware the other is near. And Niko...omg :/

fun observation, the keyboard guy drving like AI...watched the replay and to me it looked like he had KY1R set, cambers opposite Razz

Midrace join prevention needs improvement

Not really a bug, but in my opinion the current implementation could be designed better;

Imagine you are hosting an event, and you don't want to password your server, instead you want to give visitors possibility to stay as spectators. What happens after the winner crosses finish line, there is immediately spectators joining the track which is not good at all - there are still plenty of cars running their last lap, some of them may run out of fuel or out of tyre wear. Its wrong to enable the joining in that moment. Imagine if your event is running on open layout where you can't put route checkers over the grid, anyone who don't care, can run the wrong direction right from the pits.

So what I am asking, if I configure midrace joining disabled, it should stay disabled until everyone has finished his race. Has this any sense?

Round4 results

What a great race by everyone! Watched full MPR and was delighted to see how each one took care and raced really clean. Less mess than expected! Thumbs up

Today is the day! Long awaited Round 4 The last round of this series will bring us more speed and more danger!

Three new sign-ups have been submitted through leagues page, and so far each round has been more popular.

In the practice yesterday we saw the potential risks of this combo. If you join without practice, your tyres will be red-hot-chili-peppers in two laps.

If you are new or just not confident with this combo
  • Use TC & ABS
  • Brake in time (its not that difficult)
  • Don't Hurry Dead banana be rather a turtle than a rabbit
Second thing: Be careful in close racing! The track is fast and dangerous and the car has no slick tyres!
Third thing: Assume you will not finish the race, and do everything to prove your assumption wrong.

Join server in time. Practice. Have fun. Respect others. Good luck!

I love the idea that realtime clock would be reflected in the weather/lighting on my server.

Did you try LFS Recorder by Victor? I feel its complicated and that is why I havent (yet) done anything with it. But at least it is interesting having many options. There is also teaching videos by Vic. I got an impression the video length is restricted into 5 min there, I can be wrong tho.

That would be lovely! I am surprised no more suggestions like this has been introduced during this graphic progress phase. Sure devs are aware of these kind of wishes, but still I believe when we think these loud, they will have some impact.

Looks interesting, though the lights from incar shoot illuminated more the right barrier than the horizon, was thinking they using fog lights? Smile Nevermind, all progress is good!

Server is warming up Smile

I couldn't get Airio rejoing configuration to work, so we will start with midrace join disabled, and cross fingers no-one jump starts at red lights Smile Server pwd

I can't have any effect on these parameters. I'm testing with two players: my 2nd player (not admin/limad) is able to rejoin unlimited times and still after the 1% race progress. What I am doing wrong? I have refreshed and even restarted Airio after setting those parameters. I am running latest Airio Free and I can't see any comments in the documentation pointing that those parameters are only for licensed Airio.

# Limit repeated joining - boolean
# Number of players in race for the check to run - integer
CheckJoin=true
PlyRejoins=1
# Number of allowed running race rejoins - integer
# Number of tries to rejoin before kick - integer
# Race progress percentage after which rejoin is not possible - integer
NumRejoins=1
KickRejoin=2
RaceRejoin=1


edit: maybe worth mention, I am running open configuration with race lenght of 1 hour (/hours=1). That makes the problem?

Another worth to mention:
I was testing this with two guys having limad2, but at the same time I had this:
DisableLimadJoining=True

And I had also in airio.cfg.txt
AllowJoining=4 (= limad4-> can ignore joining rules)

So in my understanding it should had worked, but it didn't. Probably I am still missing something? One thing we made sure, midrace join must be enabled, otherwise you can't join at all (this of course is also very logical, but just to make sure)

If anyone wants to help me testing this, PM me and let's have some tests on my online server. If/when I find a solution to this, I will edit this post and write it here.

Nice activity we had yesterday night. Good practice hours with several visitors. Hope to see today many of you, though the timetable is early and its Saturday. Official race event of Round 3 starts at UTC 16:00, join in time! This time server will be passworded during Qualify and password will be removed after race has started and joining not possible anymore.
