Also can push tyres for longer than standard game. If pace is good no need to pit
Misc F1 2020 TyreTempMod - Realistic temperature, grip, wear, strategy v1.7
- Thread starter andyandy989898
- Start date
For wet floor, my times have increased.
It has curves that arrive as before is patically ingathery.
Can you solve this?
Sorry can you explain the problem a bit more?
So far only tested on Austrilia, Bahrain and China both on increased downforce car setup with soft tyres on Williams car. It seems to me a lil bit high. Should I adjust tyre pressures ?
Yeah, slower pressures means more lower temps put greater wear. Higher pressure means high temps but less wear

Andy this is a really great mod, and it's always worked excellently, but I had a strange race at COTA.
All the AI cars either did a 2 stopper or a 3 stopper. The suggested strategy was Softs (17), Softs (17), Mediums (22).
I thought I could bypass this as I could keep the softs below 70% wear for 24 laps, and the mediums below 70% for the remainder of the race.
What I actually found was that those running multiple stops easily beat me. The race effectively became how quickly you could burn your tyres out and then switch them out. Ricciardo, one place ahead of me at the start and finish, finished 45 seconds ahead despite stopping 3 times.

Interesting. I have not changed how the drys work. Did you go from v1.5 to v1.6?
Sorry, would have been helpful if I told you this in the first place.
It was v1.5. I haven't tried v1.6 yet.
I am not the creator of the mod but I think that one of the purpose of the mod may be making 2 stops more rewarding, as usually in the original game when you pull off a 1 stop strategy you gain lots of positions against the a.i. if they qualify on softs in certain circuits
Agreed and the mod has always worked perfectly.
I was just surprised that cars were doing 3 stoppers at COTA - that's unheard of in real life.
Career or single gp? I think later in career the R&D makes softs stronger.
Also did you select softer for compounds for the race. I think the ai follow the players choice so they may only have had 1 medium to use and didnt want to use the hard?

Career mode, first season with Mclaren. Only other mod is Javliar's dash.
I actually stopped developing the car midway through the season, so I've done the magical thing of making the Mclaren the 3rd worst car on the grid.
I selected Softs because I qualified 11th, so they were a fresh set. I was promoted to 7th due to AI penalties and in the opening stint on softs, I overtook both RPs. Ricciardo (4th) and myself (5th) were getting away from Perez in 6th (all on Softs) and I actually overtook Ricciardo circa lap 13 (so I was the fastest car outside the top 3).
Ricciardo pitted circa 17th lap, I carried on to 24. But in those 7 laps, he actually made up the entire pit stop gap to be only a second behind me (I was still running 4th at the pit stop). My lap times didn't drop off, and my tyres finished at around 62%. But in pitting early, Ricciardo's next set of softs were now 2 seconds a lap faster than mine.

Yesss looking forward to try!
Hi Andy, I am having an issue with version 1.7.
Light rain hits in SPA on lap 6 out of 22, so many drivers including myself pit for the inters.
After 2 laps in inters a safety car comes out and the rest of the pack pits to inters, but even who had already pit for inters boxed again for a new pair of inters just after 2 laps.
I don't think this is a tyre wear issue as tyre consumption was quite normal on my side
Edit: another lap on the safety car and all the cars pitted again for new inters for the 3rd time, after only a lap of new tyres

Interesting, I have never seen this in testing. Do you have a saved game just before this happens?
I did not save before the safety car, Sorry. But I can still restart the race and the weather will be the same, with the dry-inter crossover. It may be possible it is a bug not related to your mod but I thought it was Better you knew! Once I restart the race i'll let you know if it happens again
Thanks Enrique
I think it's a case of the safety car timing. The AI are pitting to gain advantage of fresh tyres but it also maybe a value in the inters grip spline that is wrong. Be good to know

Thank you if you want to have a look. The strange thing is that safety car comes out, they pit, and at the end of the 1st safety car lap they did pit again for Inters even though they already did (they were the same cars). Everyone did so. Thanks!!
