Love the work you've put into all these Finnish circuits! Awesome work as usual.

Jaasu updated Botniaring with a new update entry:

Fix for laptiming

Quick fix for laptime not working in short layout.

Something always gets messed up but here is quick fix for the laptiming

I get a lot of AI cars pitting after just one lap. Anyone else?
There's a 'fast lane' fix for this but I can't remember what it is.

Love the track!

A few things though: Physics mesh seems a bit smooth comparing with Kunos tracks? Also the surroundings look a bit plain, compared to for example this onboard footage:

, where the kerbs are also not the same narrow ones all the time. Could it maybe get 4 more pit boxes to be on par with most Kunos tracks as well. Would love to use it in our upcoming racing series

Look forward to 1.0!

You're correct, it feels smooth because it is smooth. As I've stated on the track's overview page there is no actual physical mesh, you're driving on visual mesh. Better feeling physical mesh will be added in later updates and ye there is still room for several other improvements.

Sorry, missed that as I was testing/commenting on multiple tracks.. Any idea when it will be updated? Days/weeks/months?

No problem I've been quite busy past weeks so track has seen barely any work, due to this I don't have any ETA for next update or final 1.0 release. The update won't be released for at least the next couple of weeks.

Well, I have no idea!


Ps. Kymiring is already made for AC by @TTM75 but it’s private mod. If you want to see Kymiring in action you can watch Formula Esports Finland race on Thuesday 4th August https://formulafin.com/esports/

koska kymiring tulee?

Yep, i made it on 2017. It’s based on cad data, because a real track not even exists in those days. Maybe some cambers are wrong on few turns, but i haven’t checked it. Sadly public release is not in my hands, so i can’t promise anything.
