Weather cannot be current because when the weather changes there is a delay causing rain to start and stop at different times for everyone giving some players an unfair advantage The reason of course being because, as we found out last week, the current time in game for people can vary by a few hours since we all came from different sessions. If we all got together in a pre race lobby so we were in the same session with the same time then it should work to have us use current weather.

Pre-race lobbies are awful imo and they're part of the reason I was sick of power vs. handling. All they're good for are getting cars impounded/destroyed whilst everyone runs around like a bunch of 12 year old squeakers you find in public lobbies. Not to mention the fact that if you disconnect from the session and have to rejoin it makes the pre-race lobby pointless for you.

Could do one of the two sports races with weather set to rainy, it could stir things up... a lot.

Playlist for this week. GOATracks #6. I still need to work out the cars and laps but I wanted to get the tracks up today like I said I would. The order of the tracks will be different also. I try to set it up so we flow from one area of the map to another after each race without jumping all over the place. Also as for racing in the rain. There is absolutely no way we will ever use current because I refuse to use pre-race lobbies. It doesnt matter who it is this crew has shown a complete lack of ability to act like adults for more than 5minutes. If you were one of the 100s that spent their time in free roams crashing into cars and blowing shit up in pre-race lobbies then pat yourself on that back. You are the sole reason we cant have nice things. Period. I MIGHT select a track for rain in the coming weeks but any tracks that are run purely in the rain will be outside of city limits. I wont have poles and signs on every corner in a semi serious playlist event, ESPECIALLY, in the rain. Likely the first track in the rain will be The North Loop, Summit or another track in that area. Might seem harsh but I tell it how it is. I love variety or I wouldnt be hosting a playlist like this. Just dont trust you guys further than I can throw you in a pre-race lobby. Been in a few dozen events and pre-race lobbies are the biggest time waster of all.

Paleto bay and pretty much everywhere within city limits is unsuitable for 16players in the rain because of the naturally spawning props ie, poles, signs, fire hydrants, traffic lights ect. Not gonna happen this week anyways. So Ill see you saturday if I dont play with you between now and then

Pssttttt For everyones information I never suggested set the weather to current, i said set to raining I know the problems with current as I've experienced it before.
I'm just not 100% serious when it comes to racing I guess, and I just thought adding rain to a race might have just made things a bit different and fun.

Ill be replacing Rockford Raceway with another track. In testing it was perfectly fine but in the playlist I just did there is a glitch that makes you fall through the floor.

Actually there might be a section of city that is glitched because Project Z has got issues in the exact same spot.

Ive updated the playlist. This is the final version. Sorry for the late switch but that glitch was going to suck if it happened in the playlist on saturday.

AKA Lane, Malice, EvilSmart, James Two7, Jackimo, JettaArts, majorcopyright, MONTANA, NotTheJelly, Twilicane,@thelion, rcracer11m, rdt33
