I think I have found the reason when the server hangs.

When I was in a race (alone) and pressing the next session command, nothing happens. Only the text that said new session commanded was shown. No qualy started... I suspect that if I leave the server in that state it never recovers. The only command I have found that recovers is the restart command. Restarts to session one.

Try it and see if this might be a bug.

Doing the same from qually works as expected. Race starts after wait time.

:g: This needs looking into. Several times I restarted sessions with no problem. We'll have a play with it.

As far as I can make out, it looks as though if you press restart or 'next session on their own, nothing happens. You have to press 'next session' then 'restart' Or something....I fiddled with it but didn't get a hang. Maybe it was waiting for the next command.

Anyway, today's track is 10 laps of Snetterton (watch the chicane into the home straight!) :norty:

Restart is a separate command. That command restarts the whole server sequence wit practice, qually and race etc. Whatever you set up.

Next session should go to next session in that sequence. It works from qually to race, but not from race to qually, if thats the setup you have.

Is it stuck now? If so, I did it. By selecting next session from a race and disconnecting afterwards. Maybe it will reset itself after some timeout, I don't know. But there is a bug there.

Edit: yeah- Seems to be stuck

We'll have to keep out fingers off the trigger until it's sorted then. I'll report it.

That was what I wanted. But you sounded like there was no issue to report so I tried once more....

Sorry if there was a misunderstanding. I simply meant that we shouldn't mess with it until it's fixed. :rolleyes: Did you have a good new year celebration?

Yeah I have had a good celebration. You know. A nice dinner, sending up some fireworks, have a dram, kiss the wife. That sort of thing. All good mate.

Good lord.  There will be less finishers than normal, and that's saying something!

 I've got right into the FF's since 1.03, but this is a place where i definitely prefer the benefit of wings :)

 Practice time....

Insane combo!    I've never done Monaco in 1600 before...what a blast!  Big grins all round :D

We've also got F2000 at Spa. :)

I'm going to make my server passworded(same as usual) but post in other forums how to get it. The LFS wrecker syndrome is raising it's head and spoiling some very good racing. Can't have that can we? :eyebrow:

Monaco very very hard at first, I had to approach it in a completely different way to any other track I've driven. Actually managed a race distance once, even though I tagged a barrier in the opening lap :doh: Still, an interesting experience, would try it again.
