1 - The rSeat 90 Minutes of Sebring

[David Garcia]

If you try to spot somebody, and he did n´t set a explicit passwrod to be spotted you will be asked for the sesion password whatever you want to do, spot, watch or race. So I would say the mistake was there... or at least is the only way I see something like that could happen. Nobody in the iRacing forums reported such a bug.

So I guess Anders gave you the sesion password to allow you to enter to spot him, and you just clicked the wrong button.

big thank You

 

[Kevin Vekemans]

i have a question:
You say that there is a 105% rule for qualy.
But there where 2 drivers who didn't set a time and entered the race, is this legal?

 

[William Levesque]

If their practice times were inside the 105%, then yes they would be allowed to race. It is obviously at the discretion of the admins anyway.

 

[David Garcia]

It is exactly what William said Kevin. Thanks.

 

[Kevin Vekemans]

ok got it

 

[Kevin Ascher]

You are listed as Driver Martin and I don´t know, but have never seen that failure before. (not meaning it wasn´t like that) Coul you maybe hitted the Race Now instead of the Watch Now or Spot buttons??? To me is the most logicall explanation.

Anyway, teams will be contacted tonight about it, as it CAN´T happen again.

Why not forbid spotting at all?
Got nothing to do with real racing

 

[Roland Ehnström]

Forbid spotting in a team competition???

 

[David Garcia]

I think he means using the server spoting feature.

Of course I recommend using Team Speak instead, but team members should be able to join as spotter on the race servers without causing a mess.

 

[Roland Ehnström]

Sure we could use TeamSpeak for the voice chat, but how would the spotter see what's actually happening on the track? The live broadcast is delayed by several seconds if not minutes.

 

[David Garcia]

Yes exactly you are right, the watch or spot button has to be used.

 

[Kevin Ascher]

Yes, yes.
I am afraid I didn't make my point of view clear there.
Spotting itself is a good thing but I find the fact that you can drive around on the track as a ghost car seriously irritating. Spotting itself is unless it causes problems to others,

I mark "Save link as..." and the download window opens but it doesn't download a single byte.
Some ideas?
