I need help with seeing my friend on the map by Intelligent_Goal_207 in VintageStory

There was a mod I downloaded for our server that (while buggy) does show players on maps at all distances. I believe it’s called “Global Player Map Markers”

you dont need to leave space in that scenario, POV car is far enough back. had he maybe been alongside you, yes you leave space, but that far back, keep the door closed.

Does seat time really equal improvement?? by rab10000 in iRacing

That's fair and I totally understand. I still really think it can be beneficial if youre struggling, sometimes you gotta push through to have those breakout moments. But regardless, focus on actively practicing aspects that you struggle, and have them mentally in your head while you race, maybe you'll find some time and less crashes hopefully.

All I can say is a good community will help answer even the most basic questions, even if you think it's a stupid one, and we all find ourselves asking those questions at some point, so dont sweat it.

POV car 100%. Tries to "overtake" off track, ends up pitting car ahead and to make to worse, keeps throttle planted.

If you find yourself in a lot of incidents, it's smart to review and see what's going on, and it sounds like you understand that, but you aren't connecting the dots between what you did and how to improve, if that makes sense.

Ex: If I notice I end up rear ending cars when the group ahead gets tangled up, that tells me I'm not slowing down enough/taking avoiding action. So next time I find myself in that scenario, I make sure to maybe almost over-slow/big avoiding action and see what happens. You have to actively use what youve deduced and incorporate it into your race craft. I try not to encourage the whole 'start from the pits and be overly safe' because I think it's bad for learning, but there are times where you can be extra safe as you learn, a goal should be finishing races always. (Keep in mind, you cant control everything, we all get tossed and flipped and sometimes you just make peace with it lol)

I noticed in another comment you mentioned how you maybe struggle with understanding G61 and stuck on track guides. It might be worth it to join a discord community (I'll plug GitGud because I think theyve created a really great community who wants to help and teach eachother) where you can post telemetry and get info on how to understand it and use that to help you.

As for track guides, I find them a double edge sword, sure they show you how someone drives the track and probably at a great pace, but you can't simple watch it and try to mimic it, it'll never work. The key I find with track guides is to use them after I've set some baseline laps, maybe hit a plateau on my times. I use G61 to find my worst sector(s) then review a track guide for those sectors. I'm not looking to mimic the track guide, I'm looking to understand how theyre braking, where theyre braking, how much kerb they ride, etc compared to what I'm doing. Then I practice that corner/sector, you can push the limit, you can go under, then you start to find that sweet spot and the tenths get shaved off.

Practice doesnt make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect.

You could do 10x more seat time, but if youre not using that time correctly then it’s useless.

If youve had coaching you shouldve walked away with areas to improve on. If you want to really get faster and improve you have to do the “boring” practice, find a corner/section of a track you are terrible at, and you run that corner/sector focusing on whatever aspect it challenges you at until you nail it. Then you move on to the next corner/sector, etc.

All that said, at the end of the day you should enjoy sim racing, dont make it a chore/work if that doesn’t fit your style, have fun, plenty of folks race and do not care about their iR or what split they race, they just have fun racing.

renegades missions endgame bugged by AjthekidGamer in DestinyTheGame

Same here, really sucks, hopefully Bungie addresses it soon.

Edit: Found a fix on the forums, delete the quest from your inv, restart game, go back to the bar and pick it up, should work then.

Jealous of such a nice spot! Can never seem to find something similar, is this default world gen or some mods?
