This small mod changes the starting positions for the cars in P12-P26 to be spread around the tracks.
Why?
Multiclass racing (e.g. DPI or LMPs) in major events, like Daytona, Le Mans are all about traffic management. However, with the standard standing start, you start overtaking the traffic only from Lap 6 or 7. Most single player races I have time for only last 7-10 laps. So most of the time I race in multiclass racing, I don't see a single GT car.
With this extension, I set 11 opponents in the same class (e.g. DPI/LMP2) and the rest 12-20+ cars - traffic (e.g. GT cars). Fun multiclass actions starts somewhere toward the end of lap 1 and never ends!
Please note that your position will be incorrect during first few laps, until you overtake most traffic (so CrewChief will complain about a terrible start
).
Modified start positions are included for the following tracks:
- lilski_road_america
- lilski_watkins_glen
- rt_daytona
- rt_sebring
- zw_midohio
- lemans2017
- spa
- ks_laguna_seca
Installation:
- get relevant tracks
- unzip to assettocorsa\content\
- it will not overwrite any existing files, but instead will add another layout to existing tracks
How to use:
- you need to specify the whole grid manually (see screenshot)
- pick 12 opponents you want to start with you on the starting grid
- make sure your position is between 1 and 12
- pick additional opponents for "traffic" in position 13+ (I recommend between 8 and 13)
Requests for other tracks are welcome! If it brings you joy - consider donating
Any paypal donation I receive will go towards purchasing more good to support Ukraine. If you would like to donate bigger amount, consider donating to https://www.comebackalive.in.ua/donate
Praying for peace in Europe.
