Pitboard change

Post by CTE »

Maybe requested before, I don't know, but I think that it'll be good to have 2 times on your pitboard. How far behind the guy in front of you and how far in front of the guy behind you. (just like in reflex) This will give some more breathing room, because if you see you are 2nd and +40s you don't have to ride on your limit :)

Anyone else think this is a good idea?

I like it.
Also it would be cool if changing your pit board was made easier to do. Like as an option from the menus.

yes it's a good idea, that would help to know the difference you have to the rider behind you, so you can relax on some rythm, and make if safer so you don't crash.

Also I think that has not much work to do, as in this case, the 3rd knows the seconds to 2nd, so it should be the same to know how many seconds you have (2nd) to 3rd :P

Hope my english was correct and you guys could understood it. :mrgreen:

I suggested this a while back but no one cared
Tennis, Basketball and Baseball all requires one ball
Motocross requires two!

It could also help with people allowing the leaders to go by. if you see the guy behind you is 30 seconds back and there's a guy right on you, you will let him by. The blue flag doesn't always appear or sometimes it takes a bit to show up.

I'd like the option to disable the pitboard entirely, or have it only flash on the screen once per lap like in real races. I get distracted checking the pitboard sometimes and make myself crash lol.

Always thought this would be cool, so you know whether the person coming up on you is for position or not.
