Make Flaggers Stop Waving From DC'd Riders

Post by AWood »

Im assuming its because a rider was down or not moving when they disconnected. But its annoying for someone to disconnect in the first 5 minutes of a national moto, or a few laps in SX, and have the flaggers wave nonstop.

Is there any way to make the flaggers stop waving when the downed rider disconnects so that we can actually use the flaggers by knowing if there is a downed rider?

They shouldn't wave for a disconnected rider. Are you sure there wasn't an active rider parked somewhere?

Actually JLV I do see this a lot in games. Ill hear a disconnected rider's bike revving for some reason, and a flagger waving the caution flag. Any ideas on why this may be happening?

Yeah, there's probably someone still connected who's triggering the flag.

I've only seen it happen for connected riders who go AFK as they crash because they're frustrated.

Ill try to replicate in small server for you. i could swear it does it from rage quits.

And im almost 100% sure it will do it if a game crashes and their bike stays pinned. Ill get back to you on this
