Some Issues about the sim

Hello all. first thing to say is i really loved this sim. the weight transfer, braking, graphics, cars and tracks are really amazing. (not start and burnout, yet however i have some issues, wasnt sure where to put as they include different things so i chose chit chat.

-everyone is talking about the v 1.00, i'd never like assetto corsa to be left out. i do hope that assetto will be a constantly developing game like some other, because the core is great, and there are many things that can be implemented (rain, night, damage, wind, brake temps etc)

-driving with formula abarth on nurburgring at 22c environment temperature, i realized that especially the rear tyres are heating up too quickly. its just too quick, doesnt feel right. in 30-40 meters going straight without wheelspin, your rear tyre will go from 22 to 35 or something like that. in just like 5-10 seconds. also, burnout with the cars, i think the cars in general should feel more powerful at starts, should have more wheelspin.

-about the modding, will anyone who knows a bit of coding be able to add new features into the game? or will the mods made by players be awaiting allowance first from the devs? how will this be decided? i'd like to listen some ideas.

 

Modding tools will be released after 1.0, as for how easy they are and what kind of mods will be allowed, we don't yet know.

 

There's talk of a 5 year development plan so hopefully more features will come after v1.00.

I've also noticed a couple of readings in the tyre temperature app that seemed a bit unlikely, tweaks are happening with each release so it may well get fixed.

The game is designed to be extrememely moddable, apparently when v1.00 is released we will get the same tools available to us as Kunos use. How much technical knowledge is required to operate these tools we don't know yet.

 

Sounds like a mod team cannot implement an oval series then (for example, given the current state of the game)?

Does this mean i won't be able to make improvements to the AI on those AC tracks in which the AI don't run as well as they could with a particular mod or AC mod?

Example: In rFactor i made track packs with all new AIW's for each individual mod i ran, so that i would achieve the best possible running AI. This method was a great success!

 

Why not? Oval tracks can be added, so can nascars/indy cars?

 

The reason is because a in order to fully implement a series like NASCAR there are things which are necessary going to make things more fluid that are not currently present in the game.
Yellow/caution flags (blue flags)
Race (re)starts
Drive thrus
Pit stops
Etc.

It will no doubt be added since this sim is based on realism and some series use several of those rules!

 

I think that many of the thing on that list will be added/supported in the future, but I wouldn't bank it on "some series use several of those rules!" There are lots of series out there with lots of rules :]
