Getting into a Server whilst an Event/Race is in progress is good but having to wait for the Race/Event to finish can be made better The means to do this is already there with the 'Solo' qualifying method. So instead of waiting 25 minutes for the Race to finish you could actually turn some laps.
This is still a 'wanted' feature. If you join a server and have just missed the start of the 20 minute race. Very boring to just sit and watch for 20 minutes Being able to somewhat participate as a ghost car would be great. Invisible to those already in the race so as not to cause a distraction.
I depends what the Server host has set in his Multiplayer.json "Closed Qualify Sessions":0, "Closed Qualify Sessions#":"0 = open to all, 1 = open but drivers will be pending an open session, 2 = closed", "Closed Race Sessions":0, "Closed Race Sessions#":"0 = open to all (currently N\/A), 1 = open but drivers will be pending an open session, 2 = closed", It says "currently N/A". But it works like a charm. So during a race you can hit race and get on track during a race. But you won't be a ghost ==> you are racing!!!.
Oooo, "Closed Race Sessions":0, Just did a test, it doesn't work no more. It reverts back to "1" once the server starts. In previous builds (i can't remember which one) it did work!!! But it did mess up the lap counter in a "rejoin" situation. So it's a good setting to set for public servers! (no rejoin) (join and race severs) For organized races: it's best to leave it at "1". and let the rejoin setting do its work.
