This Hotfix focuses on solving issues introduced with the 2020 Season 1 release.
CHANGE LOGS:
iRacing BETA Interface (03.01.13-beta)
- The iRacing BETA Interface may now be used to download updates while iRacing is down for maintenance, similar to how
https://members.iracing.com/download works for the classic membersite.
AI Races
- AI drivers no longer sharply turn to the left when the green flag flies when using rolling starts.
- AI drivers have received some new pace lap training which should make them less aggressive on the throttle in slow corners.
- Official iRacing AI Seasons will now be generated when the iRacing BETA Interface is first launched.
V7 Tires
- Tire parameters have been adjusted to reduce the likelihood of roll-overs.
- All V7 Tires now have simulated tire warmers to mimic warm-up laps.
- - This adjustment should improve performance at standing starts and on out laps.
Cautions
- The new caution mode, Caution Laps Do Not Count (DNC Cautions), where full-course caution laps do not count as race laps, remains disabled with this release.
- - Currently, this feature is in the final stages of testing, and we will have this feature ready for you as soon as we can!
- Fixed an issue so that restarts correctly go Single File N laps from the finish.
