    Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    Obviously the first 3 are self explanatory (ABS,TCS,AUTO) but what does the 4th and 5th icon represent?

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    4th is ghost/replay and 5th is certified

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    There's something else.

     In Auto there are 3 different entries:

     A full circle means Automatic.

    A half circle means Manual

    No circle means manual with clutch

    Not sure what a full circle in TCS means, but most people with that on have a half circle.

    There are two types of times. You have certified and uncertified. If you have done any things to uncertify your times (hit a car, hit a wall, draft over 100mph, go off track) then your time will sit below every certified time.

    If you uncertify in the last sector, you will uncertify the next lap.

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    I think that the TCS full circle means Stability and TCS. If you have a half circle on the right is is Traction, because I have a time set with that and have never used Stability management. Full circle on Auto is full Auto, half cirlce is manual, and no circle is man/w clutch. As someone else said. The attachment sign as Tak said seems to be replay as I have verified only the top 20, ones without it I went and checked there was no replay there, dunno why that would be, maybe they didn't allow the upload who knows? As for the triangle with the Exclamation mark in it, Certified is what someone else said, Ihave no idea what certified means does anyone else know?

    Would you uncertify your time if you used rewind to remove a crash or drifted off of the track onto grass? Also if it is certified do you know if there should be a symbol on your leaderboard time, or if the there is a symbol is it certified, or is it uncertified?

    Cheers

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    Just thought I'd clarify,:

    ABS:

    Full circle: Auto-brake and ABS

    Half circle: Auto-brake or abs (not sure which side signifies which)

    TCS:

    Full Circle: Traction control and Stability

    Half Circle: Traction control or Stability (not sure which side signifies which)

     Auto:

    Full circle: Automatic

    Half circle: Manual

    No circle: Manual with clutch

    Paperclip:

    Full circle: Saved ghost/replay (top 100 times posted after leaderboard was live)

    Hazard sign:

    Hazard sign means the lap is uncertified. Explanation above.

    No hazard sign means the lap is certified.

    Ah yes, I missed rewind. Rewind uncertifies your times. If you use it, your time will be uncertified whatever you did before or after it.

    You don't want the symbol.

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    does the rewind "uncert" reset for each lap too? Meaning, if it's used on lap 1, will it uncert your lap 3 time?

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

    Drafting will also uncertify your times. This includes drafting from behind OR in front of another car.

    If you want clean times, it's best to race by yourself (use the hot lap feature).

    Re: Leaderboard icons and what they mean?

     

    Will an un-certified time of 1:03.222 be placed below a certified 1:03.322 time on the scoreboards or just below all certified times of 1:03.222?

    The worst (slowest) certified time will always appear above the best uncertified time. Does that make sense?

    Uncertified 1:03:222 will be placed below certified 10:00:00 time. (Yes, ten minutes)

    Basically, if it is uncertified, you will be below EVERY certified time.

    It's all about when it is used. If it is used in the last sector it will uncertify the next lap. If it is used in any other sector, it will be certified next time round.

    Exactly what I wanted to hear!
