AI pit bug

[JR82]

Does anyone know why some AI cars don't leave the pits? they just get lapped & the race can't end because of these cars, have tried reducing the # of cars for the track but it still an issue.

[samsepi0l]

which track?

[JR82]

Was Belle Isle Detroit, had 29 cars (29 pit bays) reduced to 28 cars (just put 35 bays) & it did it again, worked fine on 27. Think it was just that i had too many cars on track.

I had the same problem once also at that track but I wanted to run 30 cars. I've never seen it anywhere else though. Maybe someone smarter than me can help... (like Pavel)

I have had the issue before but it was seemingly because i had 2 cars, what i had forgotten was the cars allowed in track file does include pace car so just reduced the # of cars will the issue went away, all i lose is 2 back markers from the field so no issue. It seems to many cars is the issue which is an easy fix.

Not when I want to run a minimum of 30. I always run 32, unless it is too crowded I run 30. I want to find a way to run 30 at belle isle.

When this happened to me (I only noticed it once) the race did not actually "finish". I always run 100 percent lengths, and when the race was over everyone pulled into the pits but when I hit "escape" key it did not show the "race is over" graphic. Results never showed that the race had ended either.

Years ago (back in the 90s) I never noticed this either, but I don't remember how many cars I was running.

I also did not adjust the cars quantity in the PIT portion of the txt file. I adjusted the CARS number... see below (laguna seca used as example)

(i have always done it this way, and never seen a problem with the exception of this)

If you have icr2mgr you might be able to play around with the number and/or length of pit boxes.

I can't remember such problem. I usualy run 50%-100% distance races, indy500 with 32 opponents and never had such problems. So I can't help.

I think Detroit ICR2 original has a 27 max car (27 is including the pace car).

I tend to agree- the funny thing is I have been increasing this to 30 for a heck of a long time and only experienced this same bug at Belle Isle.
