: has anyone ever opened the effects.dat file and looked through the flags,
: well i have and i found that the red flag is in there along with green,
: white, yellow, and black. How come i never saw the red flag during the
: game. Has anyone seen the red flag appear during the race or have an
: explanation for not being in the game?
Red flags are used to halt the race. The most usual cause would be for
rain. However, they have been used to "close" the track so that safety
repairs can be done to the track and the barriers. It could be that
Papyrus had thoughts of using this for NRO. Or it is just there cuz the
programmers wanted to include everything they could, even if wasn't
going to be used. You will probably find references to rain also...
