Fellow NROSers, Please evaluate the jpeg image I have posted to alt.binaries.simulators.autos It shows the finish line of the last lap of a recent NROS race. I (in car 39, red and white car) am leading and you can see my front bumper is just across the start/finish line. Yet I was not credited for the win. The car on the outside, a good half car length behind was credited with the win. Heck I even celebrated a little before I realized I hadn't won. Now, I'm not complaining too loudly here, cause I think NROS is great, but I don't see how this can be ignored. Also just be warned that this bug from the original NASCAR 2 has not been corrected. I would tend to think that this has to be fixed before the real competition begins. Also I can't figure out why the replay screen says lap 8 of 9, when this was the last lap of the race. Maybe I missed something here. Also I still have the replay if Papyrus or NROS people want to see it. Thanks, Matt -- please remove "spammenot" from the email address to reply
Kyle - believe it or not, NROS just that; the NROS scoring system should correct checkered flag finishing order if a car passes on the same "tick" as crossing finish line. However, there remain some kinks to be worked out to get all of the lap scoring conditions Internet-ready. Hang in there, we're workin on it! Charlie Heath / Papyrus
