SIMULATION:
Connectivity
– A brand new Connection Black Flag system has been applied in iRacing!
– – The Connection Black Flag system serves to maintain our aggressive racing atmosphere honest, steady, and predictable for all drivers. This technique retains an in depth watch on the steadiness of all drivers’ connections to the race server and is ready to detect points with variance over time. If a driver’s connection is repeatedly fluctuating to an unacceptable diploma inside a sure span of time, that driver could also be served with a Connection Black Flag.
– – A Connection Black Flag instantly teleports the racer to their pit field and applies a tow timer, eradicating them from the observe to make sure a constructive racing expertise for all different individuals.
– – A driver served with a Connection Black Flag will see a discover on the display screen informing them as to why they have been moved to the pits, and it presents them with two choices: wait within the pits or start Ghost Driving. Whatever the driver’s alternative, whereas serving a Connection Black Flag, the motive force is just not scored and should not make any progress within the occasion. The motive force should wait till the race server determines that their connection is steady sufficient to permit them to rejoin the occasion. When a driver’s connection turns into steady once more, the Connection Black Flag can be eliminated, and they’ll re-enter the simulated world from their pit field and should rejoin the race.
– – – If a driver already serving a Connection Black Flag chooses to Ghost Drive, any injury or penalties accrued whereas Ghost Driving are carried over into the occasion if they’re able to return.
– – – Throughout Group occasions, if a driver for a group receives a Connection Black Flag, the group might carry out a driver swap to attempt to enhance their connection to the race server. If the connection stabilizes with the brand new driver, the Connection Black Flag could also be eliminated.
– – – A driver already serving a Connection Black Flag whose connection stays unstable for an prolonged length may additionally obtain a discover informing them that the standard of their connection is not going to enable them to rejoin the occasion.
– – A Connection Black Flag is not going to be utilized to a driver who suffers a single lag spike. The system operates by considering each high quality of connection and length of variance.
– – A Connection Black Flag is not going to be utilized to a driver who suffers from a comparatively excessive ping worth that is still constant. Consistency and stability of connection are extra essential to the race server than ping.
– – The Connection Black Flag system will solely be energetic in specified Official Sequence. Any Official Sequence the place it’s energetic can be denoted. Whereas this technique remains to be new, it will likely be in use sparingly whereas we tune and accumulate information. We anticipate it will likely be prolonged to extra occasions sooner or later as it’s improved.
Race Management
– A brand new black flag has been added: a Connection Black Flag.
– – If a driver’s connection is repeatedly fluctuating to an unacceptable diploma inside a sure span of time, that driver could also be served with a Connection Black Flag. This flag instantly teleports the racer to their pit field, the place they grow to be a ghost automobile. A driver served with a Connection Black Flag should wait till the race server determines that their connection is steady sufficient to permit them to rejoin the occasion. When a driver’s connection turns into steady once more, the Connection Black Flag can be eliminated, the motive force will now not be a ghost, and their automobile will re-enter the simulated world of their pit field.
– – – See the Connectivity part for larger particulars.
– Warning laps throughout parade laps might now solely be shortened to a restrict of “2-to-green” by a Race Admin.
