Cops and robbers - the rules

Hellos, could we make it clear to everybody what kind of rules to use. There seems to be at least 2 different versions. I was on a server today and very few people knew what the reules where and the few who knew disagreed (I read the rules for that server, but lost the link). In any case, lets try to make it clear for all, if at all possible.

1) The old cops & robbers (MG race server rules. Raced on a normal track a la BL1)
Rules (http://s10.invisionfree.com/MG ... am/index.php?showtopic=77)

Cops = White car
Robbers = Black car

- One cop to every 4 robbers.
- No joining between race. (unless you ask nicely ).
- Once you are hit three times pit and change colors to cop (white).
- You can go anyway round the track you want.
- Cops cannot wait around at pit exit!
- Once a robber has been hit he/she will put 1,2 or 3 into the text box everytime they are hit, once they reached 3 they turn into a cop.
- No one will use the map! Shift + F!

Last robber left wins!
[B]
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Rules for the other type:

http://www.maxheadroom.nu/citydriving/

Unfortunately the servers are very disorganised and u see almost no cops at all. And, yes, the "robbers" don't really exist. Only guys, who break the law (a la speeding)

Hellos, does anyone know the server owner? I was banned by somebody who does not know the rules. They told me to pull over and if I didn't they banned me. The same guy also tried to ban several others... He thought that if we did not obey when he said that we must pull over, then he was intitled to ban us.

In any case the server is fun and I would really like to play there again. However, now I'm banned for I don't know how long

Bottom line: Who is the server owner?

Quote from Memph1s :i guess we both made mistakes in that lap so i can just say sorry that i banned you then, but there where so many wreckers round there which annoyed me and then in the next race again out in first lap.

Quote from Andreas Grauel :Hi Scawen,

I should have said that when U11 came out, but i totally forgot about it. U added a function to rename Setups correct? What about the function to create folders? I would like to sort my Setups in Folders... for example...

Pit Screen -> Kyoto -> National
and then i see there maybe three or four setups... different Quali and race sets maybe. That would make it a lot easier.

Hope it is not a double post i read through everything and couldnt find this request.


*EDIT*
Again i forgot about something... the same function would be good for Replays. So you can sort them after Leagues/Events and maybe a rename function for replays would be good as well


I do know that came up a lot of times... but not in the U Testpatches so i just wanted to remind ya

Same here. Been waiting those things for ages

Quote from hackerx :I like that quick track selection, good idea. But as already said, there should be way to select reverse configs from there too, best probably done with on/off "Reverse" button below tracks list.

Quote from thisnameistaken :Actually I think it would. If there was an option of making the MRT easier, most drivers would choose it and we'd never seen the non-downforce model online again. It's the same argument about making slicks optional on the road cars - it would just kill the road tyres dead, we'd never see them again.

Just look at servers where all the cars are enabled - if there's anybody on there, they'll be driving the BF1.

That's not logical argumentation. You are confusing two things.

If the driver is allowed to choose and if the race is for victory and the driver wants to win, then undoubtedly the driver chooses the car he is fastest in.

If the server enables only for example MRT 6 then everybody who wants to drive that car will join that server. All drivers will be driving it. The leagues and teams can organise races in those cars for example. Or one can hotlap in that car, because that offers some difference.

Quote from Cue-Ball :I hope we never see that car in game. We already have enough downforce open wheelers.

yes, it would be a pitty to have more options...

Thoughts on forced piststops.

If a server has forced pitstop then it is intended that the drivers get to experience the race with making a pitstop. The server owner never-ever intends that the pitstop should be allowed to make on the last lap. What would be the point!?!?!?

If it is not a preagreed term among racers that last lap pit is OK then anybody who makes their pitstop on the last lap knowingly and willingly cheats the idea of the server and cheats all racers. If you forgot to pit before last lap then it is your own fault and nobody elses. In that case you should pay the price and not take advantage. Taking advantage with "ops, I forgot to pit, so I just do it on the last lap" is pure bullshit. Noone should suffer because you f*cke up.

Quote from Woz :Calm down. NOBODY is saying that every race should have forced pitstops?

That's not at all what I am talking about. I'm saying that forced pitstops are OK!

Quote from ajp71 :Any race series that has to force pit stops to make it interesting has a problem IMO, real or virtual.

What the hell is the problem? You do understand that usual LFS races are not 40-70 laps long? Pitstops are a part of such long races. Quite often such races involve pitstops. However, normal LFS racing is not so long and pitstops are not necessary. There is a difference for the reason of the pitstops. In real racing forced pitstops are for entertaining the viewer, In LFS they are for entertaining the racers and making them experience the pitstop.

But, doooooohh... oukey... "Any race series that has to force pit stops to make it interesting has a problem IMO, real or virtual."

as you improve and move up the LFS ladder you get to be purple.
Your PB gets to look fairly competent and your name turns red.
You progress on through a couple of leagues..you're starting to get some respect from other racers...you are now an 'orange'...cool! but you still envy those yellows it looks like you're going to have to put in a lot of practice to get there...but after a year you finally make it! hoorah! quote]

Quote from bal00 :The response time of the monitor doesn't really matter. I'm using a 19" LCD with like 18ms, get around 30fps and I'm doing ok. I remember pbu mentioning that he gets like 25fps or so...

Maybe the steering settings were just a little different on your friends computer.

yeah, have u checked steering setups?

Quote from Becky Rose :I've only once seen a wrecker in S2, by that I mean somebody who went the wrong way, placed their car across the track on blind exits, swerved into poeple as they passed and slammed into the back of people. Very poor behaviour, but the irony is the wrecker I saw was on So Classic/Fox and it took us half a dozen races to realise what he was up too !

WEll.. u haven't seen much then. I've seen all kinds of people in S2. And nobody realised what they were up to. For 2 days they visited the same server and I was lik omg, they will just keep doing this and nobody understands.

Quote from Jakg :well, you dont "register for the master server", and next time you ask a question, dont ignore the answer you get if its not what you expected

It often happens that the people who know "how to" forget to mention the "ofcourse you have to do that" things. I think it was a fair question, and your answer was certainly not a complete one.
