I always find that Chris Irwin is an absolute pig to lap. Does this
bloke know what a blue flag is?

Visit my webpage at http://members.xoom.com/JensSchu/ for some serious stuff concerning:
Radio controlled airplanes
Racing simulation, esp. GPL
Classic cars, esp. Morris Minor
There was no requirement for the driver to cede to what may have been a
faster-lapping competitor.

I used to find qualifying a real pain in the ass, due to the fact that I
would be halfway round a good lap only to see a speck in the distance
and knowing full well that this was one of the computer AI doing his
sunday driving style in or out lap, and also knowing full well that I
was going to catch him before my good lap was over. And also knowing
full well that he was going to be at his slowest through the next bend
losing me at least a half to 1 second off my time. :(
However, I found the setting in the gpl_ai.ini (I think it's called
that) that allowed me to up their speeds during these 2 laps. Since
that time I've had no probs with the AI during qualifying/practice.
Unfortunately I'm currently going through a very careful reinstall of
windows at the mo, due to system failure, and haven't got round to
putting GPL back on my system so I can't point directly to the offending
line. Hopefully, if anyone is interested, then someone else will be
able to post the definitive answer. If no-one else posts an answer,
then I'll probably do so in a couple of days.

How was the AI for each driver arrived at by the programmers ?

Before you buy.
Go to your GPL directory and find the Driver.ini file. Backup this file
first!. Change the "global_hype_scaling" value to 1.20 (This equates to
the AI drivers at roughly 80% potential) or whatever value you feel
happy with? A higher value than 1.00 slows down the AI, a lower Value
than 1.00 speeds them up.

I'm not sure if this is what I was referring to. The line I changed
specifically only affected the AI drivers in and out lap speeds and
nothing else. I think your change affects everything.

slow_lap_speed_adj_coeff = 0.900000
0.9000 means that their speeds are 90% of their normal racing speed.
What that equates to is something like a normal 1:40 lap taking over
1:50 - over 10 seconds slower per lap and they won't move over when you
catch 'em. I've bumped mine up to 0.980000 which keeps them well out of
the way. :)
