The netcode and scoring in general for online is so broken. It's not even something that is manageable, it is an entire game breaker. The fact that the online is in the state it is in 2015 is pretty sad. "NASCAR Racing 2003" has netcode and an online experience far beyond what KRP could ever reach, at least that's how it looks. Furthermore, the online has gotten worse with the latest betas, how is it possible to move backwards in development? I really hope this get fixed, but I'm doubtful based on my previous experiences with the game. Nothing else to really say about the matter.

What do you mean with "scoring in general"?
Scoring in terms of lag where lap times do not show up for any driver on a dedicated server where they worked before.

Lap times are recorded late or not recorded at all?
For all drivers or only some drivers?

They are VERY late, and we are not sure about drivers as no one was getting times. I am troubleshooting today.

Thank you for the report.
The problem has been found: it is due to the new dynamic track surface code, that is generating too much data.
The fix is not easy, though. A patch will be released as soon as possible.
