    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to increase the number of restart race votes in rF2 dedicated server ?
    This is restricted to 2 in game and then I have to get up to manually Restart Race on the server.
    I think I remember changing this in rF1 multiplayer.ini but cannot find the info for rF2.

    In Multiplayer.JSON:
    "Vote Max Race Restarts":1,
    "Vote Max Race Restarts#":"maximum race restarts called by vote",
    Is it that?

    I`m really not sure, but wasn`t there the possibility to login ingame as admin? And with admin rights you can overrule votes...? I remind there is a password for the admin needed, must be in the multiplayer.json.

    //Edit: just found it:

    I tried "Vote Max Race Restarts#":"16, "maximum race restarts called by vote",

    I do not think I explained myself clearly.
    Scenario:
    My friends online and I finish a race on my dedi server, we each decide to vote to restart race.
    Two times this works fine , the third time a message appears something like "No more restarts allowed" in Vote window.
    Then I have to get up and go and restart the race on the dedi server.
    In rFactor 1 I used to increase the number of vote restarts to 60 is something and we could all vote to restart race on the server multiple times without restrictions saving my fat lazy ass :)

    Is what you're pasted there exactly what you put in your file? It's important you only change the "1" to "16". So the first line should be:
    "Vote Max Race Restarts":16,

    Yeah, I got a bit confused by the # in the line.
    Makes sense to try "Vote Max Race Restarts":16,
    Will test this next Friday racing night when everyone logs in and let you know the outcome.
    Thanks a lot Juergen-BY and Lazza for the quick replies !
