F1 23 version
DISCORD Created to prepare for F1 23: https://discord.gg/YdfZry5CVh
F1 23 version will be released ASAP and will continue to fine tune it based on user feedback.
This mod for F1 22 will likely remain in it's current condition.
***********************************************************************************************************

This version (F1 22)
It appears 'StrongestFish' and 'hrry' are no longer supporting the Extreme Medium and Realistic Damage mod.

So I did it myself (originally for just private use) and made a few other tweaks to get a more realistic experience. But I decided that I must share it with you guys, as I think it's great! Huge shoutout to those guys for doing all the hard work, I've simply taken the script(s) and tweaked them to make it feel the most realistic.

What does this mod do?
- It weakens all aspects of the AI cars. So when they collide, there's a higher chance of them getting terminal damage. (NOTE: This higher damage does not apply to the MyTeam cars. So you can continue to play on your preffered damage model setting in-game)

- Slipstream is ever so slightly increased, which encourages the AI to make more overtakes, thus resulting in more crashes! (NOTE: This does apply to the MyTeam car, so you are not at a disadvantage against them)

- Tyre wear is increased slightly for all teams to encourage more than 1 pit-stop. Originally the intention for this was to cause more crashes as often crashes occur when the AI are on cold tyres. But it turns out this actually just makes the game way more realistic and way more fun aswell. 1-stop races are boring!

What else do I reccomend?
- First and foremost, I absolutely reccomend using Kolarr's Improved AI mod: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/improved-ai.54990/
IMPORTANT: If you do, do not use the Better Slipstream additional add-on, as this will overwrite all the script changes in my mod.
Simply add the modular mod folder called 'TRACK_AI' to your '_ACTIVE' folder.
Kolarr's Improved AI mod helps to create even more crashes as the AI will defend like a lion.
Not only will there be more crashes, but they will be more unique, and more realistic!

- My mod is optimised to work best for 50% races. It will work fine with other race lengths too, there just might be a tad less crashes if you use 25%, and perhaps too many if you use 100%. You can also use the manual option to tweak the settings yourself. Or, if there is a huge demand for it, or you ask me super nicely and call me daddy, I'll make a few other versions for 25%, 100% etc.

What next?
- I dunno, you tell me. Try it, see what you think! Let me know in the discussion if you have any ideas or issues! Thanks, and enjoy! :)

Works like a charm!
Very goooood, also does this mods can combine with F1 23 Season Mod - BAHRAIN SPEC V1 3.1.2?
Can u make one were animals run onto the track at random
In qualifying AI does seem to only drive 1 lap and stay in for the rest of the session, this happens on both Full and short qualifying sessions.

Tyre wear for me is realistic. however AI is still only ever taking the mediums to hards strategy every track with 50% race distance.
There is very little if any difference in pace between each tyre compound. I had fresh set of softs and AI had a few lap old hards and even tho I gave it everything I was only about 0.2 secs faster per lap. IRL that difference could be over a second per lap depending on the track. Also there seems to be no difference in grip levels between each tyre compound.

What season are you in?
I love the crashes but there is ridiculous amounts of tyre wear so i would love a version without tyre wear pls
I only get the feeling that the improved tyre wear in the MyTeam Career mode is only for myself. Other teams seem to do one stops while I need to do 2 even with tyre management (50% races)

Absolument génial , Merci Papa
love the mod , i think ai becomes a biy dumbass when come safety cars.. ibut yeah they turn into carnage and one thing i notice more is the use of ERS without the mods the bots jsut use ers on first lap, the lap they pitting and at last lap ... with mod they use a lot more to defend or on straights and thats cool .. nice work sry english
I don't know if I missed something, but in Great Britain Red Bull is making 1 pit stop.
good work
nice mod, but i think tyre wear is a bit too hard, after 3 laps driving in spain on the mediums my tyres were at 40% already, without really pusing the limits of the car.
it's a wonderful mod
please can you adjust the tyre wear for 2-stops in 25% race
Good mod and all but how do I remove this mod from the game?
Excellent work man!
Bro could we please have a version without the tyre wear?
Its a very nice mod and it makes a lot of fun. But
Daddy could we pleas have a version without the tyre wear?
Good to see you're making updates to the mod! I have only played one 50% distance race in Spain (grand prix mode) and most of the cars did a 1-stop race and 3 cars DNF'd. I think there is some work to be done to tweak the values but seems like you're on it.

As others have requested, I'd also love a version for 25% distance races.

I'd love to have a similar realistic damage mod that StrongestFish made on F1 2020 & F1 2021, but I guess the damage model is different in F1 22 and it can't be done the same way.

But it seems like you know what you are doing, so keep up the good work! I'm greatful for all updates :)

Spain is quite a non-crashy track!
Were you using my mod alongside Kolarr's Improved AI? That definitely helps to cause some more incidents. However, I'm at Spain in my career soon so I can keep an eye on it and see for myself.

As for tyre wear, I'm trying to get a balance where 1-stop and 2-stops are almost as good as each other, but that's also track dependant. Bahrain for example is a 1-stop favoured track, but others are very 2-stoppy!

With the increased accidents and safety cars a usual 1-stop race can easily become a 2/3-stop race!

Like I say, still a work in progress. Trying to find the balance right is quite tough, but we'll get there. Please don't hesitate to post your results in the Discussion, it's always good to know how many people crashed and pitted at certain tracks so I can gather as much data as possible to optimise! :)
absolute beauty of a mod, but.... Daddddy can we have a 100% version?
