Patch Note 16.07.2015

  • Implemented new weather system allowing for rain and varying temperatures. The race starts with an initial weather and after a while there will be a forecast of upcoming weather, this forecast will become the current weather after some time. This process repeats itself until the race is over.
  • Surfaces can now become wet and impair the car’s performance. Rain makes it wet and it takes time to dry up, so it might take a while before it is dry again even though it has stopped raining. The level of sunshine and time of day influences the rate the water dries up.
  • Wet tires are now enabled in the pit planner and lobby screen.
  • Tire temperature system has been updated to be affected by the level of sunshine and wetness in addition to temperature.
  • Tire grip is now hampered more by running on low temperatures.
  • AI cars now always start with full tank of fuel.
  • AI cars no longer run out of fuel as frequently.
  • The driver AI now regulates it speed better when running on worn tires.
  • You can now keep chatting after the race has concluded.
