Team races are full suported from 1.12 build 24 allowing management of team members and announcing relays.
The feature includes new user interface items.
The racer's form includes an option to define it as a team.
Once the team is enabled, you can use the team manager to manage the members. A new option is included in the context menu as well.
With the team manager you can add/edit/remove members from the team using the context menu.
The transponder checking follows these rules:
- Teams MUST own different transponder numbers - Team members must own the team transponder number or a system-wide unique transponder number.
The system can detect automatically who is running if every racer installs its own transponder. If the racers share the same car, it can be difficult to change the transponder installation during the relay. It is allowed to share the same transponder number for all team members and there is an option in the context menu allowing to define the active driver (racer running) in order to control partial times. The option use the same transponder facilitates the transponder configuration and set the team transponder to the team members.
