I saw G. Hill raise his arm and pull over in front of me at the Ring during practice. >I wonder if anyone has seen AI drivers raise their arm to let the others >know they have a technical problem. This would be very useful at racestarts.

I wonder if anyone has seen AI drivers raise their arm to let the others know they have a technical problem. This would be very useful at racestarts.
Gday, I had Bandini put his arm up just as I was passing him. He pulled off the racing line and took me out :)

I saw it several times. e.g. when they pit in. > I wonder if anyone has seen AI drivers raise their arm to let the others > know they have a technical problem. This would be very useful at racestarts.

Mea***er heeft geschreven in bericht During a monaco race, I crashed with an other car during the start. The other car caught fire and the driver raised his arm. I first thought he was angry with me, but when i read the manual it said that drivers raise their hands when they are in trouble. remco

Not sure about problems, but I have seen the AI drivers raise their arms when they go in the pits. Marc >I wonder if anyone has seen AI drivers raise their arm to let the others >know they have a technical problem. This would be very useful at racestarts.

It's not to show a technical problem, but the other day I hit Jo Bonnier in a race at Monza. His car spun into a fence and he raised his arm. The funny thing is that he kept his arm up as he rolled 8 times down the track, punching the ground each time he went over....... -- Graeme Nash You know what to do with "don't_spam_me"... http://www.karisma1.demon.co.uk/ ICQ# 11257824 "My car appeared to disagree with my preference for living"

Could you guys please take a look at your gpl_ai.ini file (it is located in the gpl directory). Please surch for the following line: signal_induced_problems = 0.000000 ; have drivers raise hand if have induced problem/error (0.0 = no, 1.0 = yes) Does the value in your (US-copy) version read 0.000000 as well? I have (now) changed it to 1.000000. Maybe now I'll see it. How do you think about those drivers who stall their engines at the start, I'm sure in real-life races they would have raised their arms as well. Thank you for your efforts. May the grip be with you.

I thought Graham was shaking his***at me after I passed him on the outside of Parabolica (a hair-raising feat, I might add - something about being so close to that gravel trap), but no, he was headed to the pits. Funny, these men. -- - John P.
