HOTFIX:

Fuel & Ignition

• Moved Fuel Hardware into Parts Customization in both the garage and business workshop. Hardware changes follow the existing repair requirement.

• Kept Tank and Tune controls under tuning.

• Fixed a save-timing issue that could cause applied fuel hardware or boost-by-gear ramps to revert after leaving tuning.

• Apply now waits for saving to finish before showing completion and allowing the panel to close. Delayed saves display a waiting message and retry automatically.

No Prep Knights

• Traffic now clears when approaching within 60 metres of an accepted Car Meet challenge’s staging spot.

• Traffic returns after leaving staging, cancelling the challenge or completing the race.

• Blocked race starts now display a message outside the challenge screen.

• Added the No Prep Knights image to the meet screen.

Thank you to everyone who supported, raced the test builds and reported issues.
