I have a tune shared for this.
In testing, as we dont have a full lobby, we filled the room up with AI. They are all in slower cars so do not cause an issue at the start, but we catch them up after a few laps which then puts them into play and makes the race more interesting. For instance, if the faster guys out in front get caught up in traffic the back markers catch up, this happened a few times in testing.
Thoughts please.
By adding the AI, is your goald to keep the player racers closer together so that folks dont end up racing by themselves? Seems that by using AI cars you would have cases were it would work or just as equally make it worse.
Drivatars love to stay 3 wide.
But I am game for trying.
The Drivatars are quite easy to pass as they are in much slower Mini's, however, in testing we have have had front runners get mixed up in the Drivatars, i know this could happen at the back too, but it has brought the field together again. In a 20 laps race we could see the Drivatars 2 or 3 times in the race.
Can someone put me on the sign up sheet my pad won't let me thanks :)
