Title: Bike Reset bug beta 9b
Post by: 3dstuff on October 05, 2016, 05:01:17 PM
The reset "r" key did not function without a crash, it function only if the rider/bike is on the terrain crashed, if the bike is stopped without crash the "r" key won't reset the bike.
Also i noticed that in case of crash, the reset button put the moto outside the track in place and orientation of the last position of the crash.

in the beta8 i did not noticed this bugs, the bike always reset if the motor is off, also the orientation and position after crash and reset are ok

Hope it helps

To reset when you're not crashed (e.g engine stalled), press the button and hold it for 3-4 seconds.

Welcome to the club opf the ones that didn't notice this. I'm a member too :)

The placement of the bike in the spot and orientation of where the bike came to a halt after the crash is not a bug, it is intended to be like that.

Well I am sorry but my bike being stuck inside a barrier or tyres is not realistic and in the end stupid. This will also piss many new users off.

Just because you want the sim to be real does not mean that it will work. It is still just a sim and many things need to be thought about a bit more before being used just because it is like it in real life.

I am sure Piboso will come up with the perfect solution in the end but being stuck inside an object aint one of them lol

The things that 3dstuff mentioned where not related to being stuck in a barrier. Being stuck in a barrier is of course something that should be adressed (and we talked about that in a different topic already), but has nothing to do with this topic here.

I'm sure Piboso can sort out the bug of getting stuck in the barriers... But just because the new reset has a bug doesn't mean you drop it and go back to the old reset system which was far worse in that you not only had to wait for everyone to pass by before resetting, but previous to that we had riders resetting and appearing in front of you out of no where! Everyone was complaining about that reset system and the new beta 9 reset was discussed many times on the forum and I didn't see anyone complaining about what was being asked for at the time.

Give Piboso some time to fix the new system and then all will be okay. But certainly no need to drop it just because it's got a bug.... GPB is a beta, right? This is what betas are all about, maybe some need reminding of that fact at times.  :P

If you're stuck on the barriers (which is a bug, it shouldn't happen), use the old-style respawn (press and hold until you respawn).

Thanks all for the responses, and sorry if i post a non-bug  :) and sorry for my English, i am new in GPB, i noticed this change but for me it's ok like this, also if programmed as "normal track situation", very happy that GPB have this responsive commnunity, thanks Piboso, i drive with a microsoft sidewinder Freestyle Pro old gyro joypad and i have to tell that is fantastic to ride with this old device, because you rotate the whole joypad in the air for turn and accellerate etc..the axis are x-1/x+1 and y-1/y+1, i mapped accelleration rotating it backward like real bikes and brake rotating it forward, after this i remain really slow on track :'(...

If you have it on one input and have to go in your case from backward (throttle) to forward (brake) there will always be some delay, which is not good. Maybe you can find a different way to map your inputs. Concerning being slow on track - if you are new to GPB and even more if you are new to motorcycle riding in general, there is a steep learning curve. So don't be frustrated if you are slow in the beginning - you will get better ;) it helps if you ride a motorcycle in real life, because then you know what is important.

I think you have to register your profile somewhere in order to be eligible to race online. After registering, it should work I think. It has been ages since I had to do that, so I cannot really remember. Try to find the answer with the search function in this forum, or maybe someone else with a better memory can help?
