Pit Stop While Safety Car Broken!?
Position 5, gap to competitor behind me 3 seconds, competitor in front 4 seconds
Safety Car
Pit Stop Order ahead of the SC
Position 1-4 leaving pitstop as i am reaching the Box
Box Time 2.8 sec. meanwhile the field nehind me also boxing


aaaand then:

My crew not releasing me, waiting almost the whole field passing me and i leave at positon 14th!!!!! WHAT IN THE ACTUAL F IS GOING ON!
I reloaded dozens of times this event, tryed my 2nd driver not to pit, chosing other tyres and what else.
First i thought maybe the field behind me boxing faster and for the sake of security they holding me back but i watched the whole boxing scene each reload, i even had a record box time of 2.5 sec and could have just left the box but they keep letting me wait till the whole lot boxing drivers have passed me.

I didnt have any penalties, wasnt involved of the crash...

ruined the whole race for me----

What was your pit Position, i mean start of pits, end of Pits? The AI is bad at letting you go out of the Pits, it needs an absolute Clear window.

If another car came to close because they pitted a bit faster, you then have to wait for the whole pack to go out.

Mass Pit stops are dangerous.

as i said i was in my box already when the behind pack aproached. my box time was 2,8 sec and in some safe game reloads even 2.6 and 2.5.
Visually my box time was fast enough although my own box was at the end of the pitlane. Meaning of course the pack behind me, at least a few of them where finished boxing and going out to pitlane but the gap in meters was huge enough to let me simply go out. Like when i do qualifying then i am either can go out or i wait the gap i am fitting in. But in this case of my race i could have fit 5 or 6 times in to the gap without any problem for the others. there was only one car that boxed half a second faster than me but he was at the beginning of the pitlane and me at the end and still my crew holding me back and waitet 4 seconds to make him pass there fore all others are allready done aswell and making me wait. tha cant be correct, 4 seconds waiting for someone who is come from the way back of the pitlane while i am at the end of the pitlane i could have easyly on the track again for 4 seconds before he even passing my box
yep unfortunately (and correct me i'm wrong) but i believe this is intentional scripting doing it's evil work, many games use scripts , sometimes it's ok and sometimes it breaks the illusion of immersion , that makes a game addictive, wish devs would realise this though. ..however to avoid it don't pit same lap as main group of ai does...really though this should be more random at least......because i'll bet you non of the ai teams will incurr the same disadvantage under the same circumstances.
