Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Russell Sobie - 03-15-2020 Did you know that incidents count after you cross the finish line? Not everyone does! Clearly! So while I know that the knuckle heads that actually should read this probably don't look at the forums at all, I'm going to post this anyway in case anyone else doesn't know about this trick to avoid the post-race carnage. I, myself, didn't know this until resident America Youtuber Host Pasha Patterson (aka zerobandwidth) showed me how to do it on his stream a week ago or so. It's easy!
RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Tim Cullingworth - 03-15-2020 Does this insist that you have stopped, like the ESC key does? RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Jim Eriksen - 03-15-2020 thanks for that did not know that RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Russell Sobie - 03-15-2020 (03-15-2020, 08:45 AM)Tim Cullingworth Wrote: Does this insist that you have stopped, like the ESC key does?Nope! It is immediate, and wonderful. It's apparently some hack that Content Manager does through its Black Majicks. I use it not only to get out of the way after a race, but also in the event that I'm about to put my car into someone else during Qualifying. RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Pasha Paterson - 03-15-2020 Follow-up tip: To reiterate, make sure you're actually done with the race when you do this, instead of skipping the final lap, like I did to myself twice last season. RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Tim Cullingworth - 03-15-2020 @Pasha I'm bound to do this at some point. My last 1hour race the dog knocked over my keyboard an changed my selected pit stop choice, so when I stopped in the pits nothing happened. With not enough fuel to do an extra lap I warped back to the pits, took the time penalty and off I went. Then realised I did not have enough fuel to finish the race. As I was sorting this out and about to stop I went over the finish line and was disqualified for not stopping in the pit window These things happen. RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Russell Sobie - 03-15-2020 Top 2 drivers from the Skippy race just now could have done with using the Teleport to Pits. For some reason 2nd thought it'd be cool to smack into 1st right across the finish line! Oopsie! RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Martin Smith - 03-15-2020 What a disaster that start was, all due to one driver who probably thinks he had some kind of heroic start. When I went to get going again I tapped the downshift paddle a few times without knowing that it would put me in R (while moving forward) which blew my engine, so I had to teleport to pits and gave me something like a 500 second penalty LOL!. Dunno if the time penalty was for the blown engine or the teleport though. Maybe should just start from the pits next time. RE: Public Service Announcement: Warp to Pits After Race! - Michael Martin - 03-15-2020 This has been a massive incident saver for me. Both when i've made a mistake to stop taking out the whole field and avoiding the idiots.
