Improvements in Version 1.11

September 22nd, 2009

The game has been updated to version 1.11 adding the following new features:

Market Revision

This is the section that has been changed more deeply on this update. The main purpose is to regulate and normalize the transactions. Until today with too many irregularities and cheats.

  1. Limit to the maximum sale price of an employee or piece. This is fixed by the system depending on its market price.
  2. Limit on the minimum sale price of an employee or piece. This is also fixed by the system depending on its market price.
  3. Buying back of pieces by the system. To compensate the minimum sale price limitation. When you discard a piece the system will give you back the total amount of “minimum sale price” for that piece.
  4. Market Commission. It’s an amount between 30 and 0% discounted from the final sale price. It is applied to all those transactions where the employee or piece has not been at least 9 months on the team. The more weeks that the piece or employee have been on the team the shorter the commission will be. And after 9 weeks the commission will be 0%.
  5. Corrected a bug that made some transactions end in too huge amounts of income for the sale.

Sponsors Revision

  1. It is now easier to get all the sponsors.
  2. There is no strange offers, such as when a sponsor was offering an sponsorship offer for a piece it was already sponsoring.

New Simulator Version

There is now a new version of the simulator with the following new features:

  1. Corrected a bug causing collisions on pit lane. From now on, even if the drivers of the same team happen to meet up in a pit stop, they will not suffer any damage. Obviously this does not imply that they loose some extra time.
  2. Revised the AI algorithm to make easier the overtake process. When a car is overtaking other cars that are on a lost lap, these pilots will be kinder and let him overtake more easily.
  3. Improved the fuel consumption algorithm. This will allow a more accurate calculation of the fuel used. Avoiding the strange problems when a car was going into pit too soon.

New Product Hours Time Pool

You can now go to the items shop and find some new products that will allow you improve your R&D. These consist of time pools for the R&D. You will be able to use this extra hours and evolve your pieces faster.
For further information go to the R&D screen. Enter the development hours and accept, a small window will pop up explaining how does the system work.

We hope you like this improvements.
