Other For the Win - Career Mode for AMS 2 v1.2.2

Hey @lordmarcos really enjoying your app!
Just did the 35 minutes (24 hours of Nordschleife) and well, there were only 5 survivors (including me)! I can only assume that those 25 out of 30 didn't crash out of the race, so I'm wondering if perhaps 10x mechanical failures is a little excessive as a recommendation for longer races? I've never had it switched on before so I'm not sure how it scales or what is considered a "normal" failure rate. Would appreciate your thoughts on this

It is explained here:

Information for Customizing AI drivers in AMS2

To override AI driver names, personalities and nationalities, user can create a .xml file named with the vehicle class name into the...

forum.reizastudios.com

You gotta scroll down a bit.

The higher the failure time range of a car class, the less cars will have failures with standard ingame settings (authentic). If you set it to "sync to race", the failures are accorded to your race length. GT3 for example have a high rate, so they are reliable as tanks. You might increase the failures ingame, but 10x is too much imo.
Caution: If you are using mods with custom AI files, the game uses the reliability of each driver's car from this file.

Yeah, for some races 10x Failures is too much..

I'll adjust these recommendations on a next update..
But until then, just change your settings to "Sync to race" or lower..

Thanks for the response! The stuff about vehicle reliability that @mungopark posted is also interesting to see
