I think I found a New Bug?

O.K. This might have been discussed before but I'll tell you what I found. Now I was racing at Pocono and I was in the lead. Then my Spotter calls out and say "cars all over the place in turn one." So for Ha Ha's, I decided to check out what happened on replay. I finally found out what happened. A car had spun out and hit the wall. Now comes the Prob. All the other cars either hit the car that spun or moved around to avoid it. Well, one car came to a dead stop, then another car RAN RIGHT THROUGH THE CAR THAT STOPPED!!!!! I kept playing the replay over and over and every time that one car ran right through the car that had stopped. No damage at all to either of the cars. Last time I checked if a car is going to hit another car, they don't go through them. You figured the car that had stopped would of had massive rear end damage and the car that hit him would have massive front end damage, even a blown moter. Anyone else have this type of problem? Just woundering. "Still talking to myself, But nobody's home."

I saw a major wreck are c***te on replay. Cope had spun, then Sterling ran into him and they were both done for the day. -- The wise man can pick up a grain of sand and envision a whole universe, but the stupid man will just lay down on some seaweed and roll around until he's completely draped in it. Then he'll stand up and go, "Hey, I'm Vine Man." Jack Handey. GO #2!

I've seen this happen a couple of times.

Hey Matt, I have driven right through cars 3 times now and its not just at pocono. its very weird when you think you're going to rearend someone and you just keep going right through them with out a crashing sound or wreck. Wally

Yes, but what sucks is when you start driving thru the other cars, and then the program realizes what happened, and corrects it (i.e., damage, etc) and then, you're stuck! like watching a dog in heat! Get the hose! get the hose!

I think this problem has been around forever. I've seen it in ICR, ICR2, N1 and now N2. The AI cars are equipped with a hyper-dimensional displacement field generator which, when activated, allows them to share the same physical 3D space at the same time without incurring damage. Try multiplayer racing: Sometimes the dialup car starts the race inside an AI car and neither car takes damage. Dave (davids) Sparks Late Night League http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/latenite.html

: .....The AI cars are equipped with a hyper-dimensional displacement : field generator which, when activated, allows them to share the same : physical 3D space at the same time without incurring damage. Whoa! Where do they sell those things? I've gotta put one on my real car! And I hope they don't use up alot of energy, my newly installed ionic photon thrust converter sets me down to about 45% as it is. :) :) :), Matt

If they're out (very popular here on the Ilse of Nid), you can get them at any store that also sells the True-Value left-handed hydraulic toenail extractor and combination pocket knife. ;) Best Regards, Marc - Sim Racing News http://members.aol.com/simracing/index.htm Marc J.

You can't activate the IPTC at the same time as the HDFG, as the HDFG uses up 75% of the output of that big old powerplant under the hood. That's why the cars always slow dramatically when the HDFG field is activated. <g> Dave (davids) Sparks Late Night League http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/latenite.html

Wonder if you could use the clapper on that???
