Make sure you down load all the parts!

This mod has now been released. All the changes are listed in the above link. If a Forum Admin is reading this, if you could remove the "Testers Wanted" and change it to "Development Discussion" thread, it would be appreciated.

UPDATED TO WORK WITH 1.3

Note: In attempts to fix the interviews and dilemmas, I have temporarily removed all non English languages from those two files. I hope to reinsert them into a later version (but when I do, they'll still be the vanilla text as I am unable to translate in any other language).

The fix is up for th previous issues. Keep up the testing

Once again a random though:

When the baseline for new season's part performance is calculated, how much randomness is there in the values? Would it be possible to increase it? And/or add a bit of random to the chassis stats?

I'd like to see the AI teams to go up and down in their relative strength to each other a bit more than they do in vanilla.

TheFlamingRed · Mar 23, 2017

At the moment there is a random +0 to +5 I believe (or was that on max or reliability)... I am sure I've seen that somewhere... sure it's possible though if it's not already in. The only issue would be: "does it just roll once per season, one per team, or once per part, or once for each of the two carried over parts"...

for example, the new "cooler tyres" after a pitstops - I believe are only being rolled once for the race weekend, instead of at every pit stop like one may expect. - not something I can change as that's just how that 'bit of script' is generated.

Hello Everyone. Okey found my first bug. Started a Create New Team game. After the first interview is completed, the text at the bottom gives a 'String in database yet not translated, PSG_10000629' error.

Odd... did the interview go alright...

Also.... what does it normally say? I really don't remember,

That's a weird string error to have. I assume there's lots more where that came from, but I don't know why that one is broken - I don't feel like I've gone near it.

Oops, this was meant to be an edit

Beynasuh · Mar 23, 2017

If I am not wrong it should say something like "You accepted the interview." But I am not 100% sure.

Also have a quick question. Are the this Red Zone's normal for starting a new game.

I'll have a look for it tonight....

Also, that redzone is tool short.... I maybe set default as 0.1 (desired minimum) instead of 0.3 (desired maximum). More then likely did

Well,

enjoy me being nice and giving you a not nasty radzone

Beynasuh · Mar 23, 2017

It's a dream come true...

But I am afraid that when I wake up it will be a nightmare this time...

TheFlamingRed · Mar 23, 2017

90% redzone with 50% random Part failure

Glory to Arstotzka

Beynasuh · Mar 23, 2017

I knew it. Arstotzkans only. It's worse then a nightmare.

TheFlamingRed · Mar 23, 2017

1,31a - Part 3 now has a redzone fix version....

Of course... the original 1.31a (with tiny redzone) is still available in the histories tab, for those who wish to stay outside of Arstotzka. But Arstotzka best country! Glory to Arstotzka

@the Missing interview Data string.... that's missing because of the end of the first line...

it has [......... "Polish","Russian"," ]

That final ," should not be there.... And the line following it is the You Accepted the Interview

I assume this is only going to cause mayhem at some point.... so I will release 1.31b wth a fix for that too

Beynasuh · Mar 23, 2017

Okey you got me. I will download 1.31a Part3 now. And 1.31b when it's ready.

(Hope that I am not a Masochist)

And for the mayhem part'; I don't it will be that big of an issue. It will only show the bugged text everytime after an interview instead the "You Accepted the Interview" text.

Ah, well that ," can cause a lot more trouble then you think

Seriously, if you're feeling adventurous, don't update

watch the world burn!

(the dll is done, its just the assets which is going to take an hour.... for the sake of a bunch of ,")

Beynasuh · Mar 23, 2017

It's always the , and " .

And thanks I like the world at it is.

Get the assets tomorrow then. Got a sleep.

NexxusDrako · Mar 24, 2017

Yeah, I literally got 3 races in. I'm gonna restart now. XD

EDIT: Actually, I'm gonna wait for 1.31b, didn't see the whole thread. hehe

I litereally just updated everyhting to a 1.3b to fix a further interview bug

NexxusDrako · Mar 24, 2017

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU..... XD

I'll restart the download. hahah

TheFlamingRed · Mar 24, 2017

Haha

its the problem with having to remake the mod each time the devs update

Interviews / Dilemmas and Personality traits are my current main projects (so these files were stapled back together to be in a releasable state). and the DLL always gets updated from scratch, so its really easy for me to miss a line or a number.
