GearCity 1.16 Progress

[Eric.B]

So racing series will now be broken down into three more categories. 1) Where manufacturers have direct involvement with the race team. Such as F1 2) Manufacturers have involvement in many teams, such as IndyCar or Nascar. And finally 3) Manufacturer slaps a sticker on custom made stuff or just sales cars/engines.

So that means we've added more windows and more sliders to racing!
If you're in a racing series that has team involvement. You can adjust:
-Driver Quality Focus
-Crew Quality Focus
-Develop or Win Focus

If you're in a series where there are many teams you can:
-Focus on team growth
-Focus on smaller teams or larger teams
-Develop or Win Focus


For the last one the system remains the same.


I haven't written these variables into the results yet, however it's not just going to be a simple "max the slider out" as hiring better drivers will take more money away from your funds, leaving you with an under funded crew and car. The inverse can also be true.





The Linux Open Beta has been uploaded to my server, currently we're doing some localized testing with a few other programmers I know to make sure I iron out any kinks before allowing you guys to test it!
