As long as you have at least 25 FPS it has negligible impact on speed. On some track and vehicle combinations higher FPS is actually slower. Ping doesn't influence your speed too.

Too bad, I thought otherwise Why not run them at different times at least, I would attend both.

Wait is this single event uniting race and mix players or two parallel events?

Yay for fallout! It was my favorite mode in 2008, to bad noone plays in since then.

No wonder, popular song from popular racing game

Why do you keep switching between 45-46 and 55 last days? Btw, I feel current value (45) do not sync up with 60 hz display well sometimes resulting in stutter, 46 was better.

By the way. Why fps limit on server was so strange numbers such as 36, 46, 55? Is this like in Quake 3?

People with fps less than 25 (may not be exact number, which could be even less) are slower because the game is coded such a way in slows down under that limit. But boats sliding on the ground much faster with 25 fps than say 45 so effect high fps on cars is unknown. I know it improves traction, but may also increase drag (air resistance) for example, making them slower.

Why is it slower? It make cars slide less. you can take 1 map for example and finish it on both 45 and 60 fps, you will see big difference in top time. Ok, I'll do it. P.S. But then it's possible to cheat by lowering your fps.

Why is it slower? It make cars slide less.

You've been searching too much pikachu gifs your browser broke.

Come on, toptime gc bonus is so miserable I wonder why is it even exists. By the way I have an idea: bonus should be proporional to number of times map has been played. Agreed. But this makes cars even faster, I think. Except for boats on land.

Ok then. But most of maps have toptime set by well known pro player.

Why delete top times it they aren't from cheaters? I don't think this makes sense. They are for reference how fast you can be. About fps - I strongly agree.

Well, I guess so, seems like noone else care.

Or, play for GC to have fun by buying maps that everyone enjoys . I see someone buying a map VERY rarely. I think that means something is wrong, like maps are too expensive.

Accustomed, I agree, but by your logic why don't edit handling to give all cars 9000 traction? That would be "best skill possible". Like I said high framerate we have on server already raises traction higher than it should be.

Would you consider nerfing driving skill? It should be possible.

What value is "driving skill" variable set on the server? For the reference, driving skill player stat in GTA SA that increase cars' traction. If it's at maximum (it is so by default in MTA race mode), I think this is very wrong. Why? Because higher framerate increases vehicle traction already. Try to play singleplayer without fps limiter (my pc gives something like 120 regardless of settings). Car will turn on dime and even brake by itself if you just let go of accelerator! Furthermore, it's totally playable at 25 fps when "driving skill" is zero, and more fun because car will slide more, I think good players should agree. Although difference isn't really big. So, I think we should set this variable to zero. Addition: server runs at 45 fps (mix server at 60), and GTA SA is designed for 25 fps.

Everything sounds awesome! Except for database lost, but I don't care.

I'd say I like fire exchange because it's fun, it's nice to have a chance of revenge when you fail, and it interferes only people behind you anyway: if you catch a fire, it means you are far enough from cars in front. And, even without this feature, one still can blow up others with himself, which is more frustrating. But if there was a way to disable car explosions, then fire exchange should be disabled too, I think. It doesn't add much to lap based maps, because slow people on road is a huge obstacle per se, and fire is really rare occasion.
