What is considered an incident? - Maxime Tremblay-Savard - 05-02-2020
I was wondering, what is considered an incident? I understand that hitting someone is most likely one, what about going on the grass? Or lightly hitting a wall?

Or lightly hitting a wall?I hope I'm not wrong but i think every type of contact is considered an incident, mostly cars and walls. Even after the race is over it will still count contacts as incident. Qualy and practice don't count.

Yes, that's correct.

I pretty sure if your crew chief warns you for track limits it's an incident.
It's considered an off, even if you don't hit anything.

Does damaging the car on some part of the track count also? For example, when entering the Caroussel on Nordschleif, I often find myself damaging the bumpers as I get in the caroussel, is that considered an incident?

@Lawrence, there are no incidents for going off, at least in Assetto. Only contact with other cars or environment like walls and stuff.
@Maxime, I think it can, but I don't think you can scrape the car enough to damage it just from driving. I could be wrong though.

Going off track to avoid folks and getting a "cut track" even bad enough to trigger AC's horrible penalty system doesn't count towards incidents. Additionally, I've lost control overdriving the car and slide around in the grass alone and never got an incident for those either. JUST going off track means nothing for that value.
It's considered an off, even if you don't hit anything.

As mentioned above, I've gone off track before and not received a ding, but I am pretty sure at least once I've gone off track into a divot deep enough where it damages my car, and that counted. I think. Maybe it only counts non-car/car collisions if you are off track?
My understanding is that it is only collisions with other physics objects, and nothing else. So basically cars, some cones/signage, and static collision.

it's a bit buggy though so I think it's possible that bottoming out too hard like you do in the Carousel might cause an incident

Right on! : )
