Strange N2 bug

by S. Johnso » Mon, 20 Oct 1997 04:00:00

On N2, I have this weird problem where at Rockingham, after the green flag
is waved all the cars accelerate at the same pace as me, but as soon as
they reach the first turn they all brake suddenly and I slam into the back
on them.  This always knocks me out of the race, and it's very annoying.
Any patches or ways to fix this?  Thanks

This happens at many tracks. There's no easy fix (fixing it yourself
that is), but soon, we hope others that are smarter than us will
continue to devise improved AI programs that reduce this tendency, and
eventually get Rockingham.  For now... be ready for the slow down and
"go with the flow" of the traffic during the start.  Hey, you can't win
it on the first lap anyway, right?  If worse comes to worse, and you
cause a huge pile up, you can hit the "shift/R" keys and get an instant
restart. Saves time.  Have fun...

God Bless,

Andre

These amazing little things called brakes.  I think I heard somewhere
they are used to slow your car down... :)

Just kiddin' ya.  But really, either drive by on the outside (not
really recommended by ME at the Rock) or slow down with em.

Of course, I could be wrong...
