    Hello, i can't find a parameter in my JSON server files.
    Can somebody tell me what is the parameter for the timer "countdown" before the start of the race.
    The one that appears in the Message Center after we enter the race for the countdown before the start.
    I have 30 seconds and would like to set it larget like 45 seconds or a minute.
    I've noticied there is a "Synchronising" that can be long depending on user side performances and 30 seconds seems a bit short for some cases.
    Thanks.

    Thank you ... I was looking for 30 in all the JSON files and never found it.
    Now i know why. It was on 32 by default :D

    And this parameter is in Multiplayer.JSON by the way.

    Yes but Coutie should told you also it is in multiplayer.JSON
    not in Player.JSON

    you have to go in your Folder "Steam\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\UserData\player"

    in the file: Multiplayer.JSON

    find : "Race Client Wait" lines at line 192 & 193

    basic is 32 sec (why not 30 sec ?)

    for more confort for our online races, we set to 60 sec or even 120 sec is better

    "Race Client Wait":122,
    "Race Client Wait#":"Seconds to wait at the beginning of a race session for clients to get ready and go to grid",

    Edit and save.
