changing the CC car setups in the track file (wing, gears and brake bias)

Post by samsepi0l »

I am currently racing on michael82's Monza and I noticed the CC's will almost always brake deeper than me in the 2nd chicane and I was thinking- could I change the brake bias in the track file to "handicap" them so they could not be as efficient braking? The idea is that I would cause them to brake earlier.

From what I notice from tinkering with the CC setup on tracks- the rear wing setting has an effect on the drag on the straights, and the gear ratio works as expected as well. I tried changing the brake bias setting from 64 to both 69 and 54 and I didn't really see a difference... has anyone ever played with this?

I haven't but I want to, do you know how to do it?

Your post gave me an idea to become an AI 'race engineer', choosing a driver to engineer and see if I can make the AI win the championship. I dont know how detailed the AI setups are though, it might not be practical

I never got any relevant results from changing the ccs brake balance so usually I will just tweak the wing values and the gear values to match the top speeds I'm getting from my car setup
