Zhuhai International Circuit Coming Soon to RaceRoom Experience

It's nice that some less glitzy tracks make it into games rather than always having the usual suspects. Also interesting piece of history in the write up 👍
 
Will grab the track once i’m able to stop joining SRS races/servers :lol:

Downloaded that major update (1.6 GB) for now :dopey:

Game:
  • Added support for Thrustmaster TS PC Racer in “Advanced Mode”
  • Added support for colored rev LED’s on Fanatec CSL Steering wheel P1 (Xbox & PS4)
  • Game now properly clears the digits shown on the display of Fanatec rims upon closing.
  • Turned off Fanatec’s built-in auto-centering of the wheel.
  • Increased the default steering lock for gamepad users to 13 after feedback that 8 was too low.
  • Cut penalties are now decided by the game when the car has rejoined the track at racing speed, preventing cases where a penalty could sometimes be handed out to a car in an unfair manner.
  • Fixed incident reporting in Multiplayer results that would list all incidents in one and unique lap.
  • Fixed a case where a player could sometimes be handed a penalty upon spawning on the grid for the race start.
  • Fixed a case where "DRS Activated" HUD message could remain stuck on screen when manually shutting DRS off.
  • Fixed a case where player was unable to repair a broken front wing in Formula X-17, US or 2.
  • Fixed a timing issue on tracks like Nordschleife VLN / 24H that would occur when player did an outlap after pitting.
  • AI - Improved fuel calculations for pitstop decisions
  • AI - Improved tyre wear calculations for pit decisions
  • AI - Fixed a wrong AI behavior where it would fail to brake when caught out of fuel
  • AI - Further improvements to their behaviour when cars are on different lines.
  • AI - Improved pitlane entering behaviour on tracks such as Silverstone where AI could be sometimes seen braking in the middle of the track to make it into the pitlane entrance.
  • AI - Various DRS and Push to Pass logic improvements
  • AI - Fixed a case where, on track layouts like Nordschleife VLN, AI could sometimes be seen having trouble avoiding cars coming out of pitlane.
  • AI - Fixed a case where, in a replay, the data display in the cockpit camera would not match what the AI is doing.
  • AI - Fixed so refueling is always allowed in practice / qualifying, no matter the car class, preventing AI’s of classes like DTM being caught running out of fuel on longer sessions
  • AI - Allowed AI to enter pitlane through any entrance if more than one exists (i.e. - VLN / 24H Nordschleife)
  • Reduced the dropping / bouncing that could occur when car is spawning on track
  • Triple Screen - Improvement to the balance between clipping through objects close to camera and flickering of distant textures.

Agreed with SRS.
It is very addicting, I did 3 races last night and I'm up to 180 ranking.
Speaking of ranking, does anyone know how the SRS point/ranking system works?
I see the number but do not understand what it means.
Higher is better I assume?
