2021 Season 2 Patch 4 Release Notes [2021.04.20.01]
This Patch contains some updates and fixes for the 2021 Season 2 Release.
iRACING UI: (5.13.01-2021-s2)
General
- The clock in the UI banner has been made more visible when Dark Mode is active.
Race Series
- The Event start dates have been added to the information displayed in the Season Schedule.
- - This shows the start date for all weeks, regardless if they are completed or in progress.
- The minimum number of participants required in order for a Ranked Session to go Official has been added to the Series Info panel.
- - Remember, your Safety Rating is always effected by your performance in Ranked Sessions; and your iRating is only effected if the event has enough participants to go Official!
- Fixed an issue where the displayed time of day word description (except Afternoon) did not match the actual time value for the Session info.
- Fixed an issue where the Time of Day info bubble was not displayed correctly on a Series Schedule.
Hosted Racing
- When creating a Hosted Session from an event on a Race Season Schedule, the correct time of day will now be carried over into the Hosted Session creation window.
- Fixed an issue where setting a weight penalty for a given car was being automatically rounded to the nearest whole kilogram, regardless of units in use and actual value.
- Fixed an issue where creating a Hosted Session from a Series Schedule was not carrying over the correct Time of Day settings.
Test Drive
- When creating a Test Drive from a Series event, the correct time of day will now be carried over into the Test Drive creation window.
Leagues
- When creating a League Team Race, the Grid Builder button is now correctly unavailable.
Paint Shop
- Fixed an issue where an empty column could appear when selecting to change cars.
SIMULATION:
Peripherals
- A new Thrustmaster "OneWheel" API has been integrated.
