Race scores

Can anyone explain why the scores displayed after a race using the Tab key don't match those in the result .csv file?

CSV file from the server or from your own race results folder?

The calculation is quite complex and will only be correct once everybody is finished or landed.

So if it is your own CSV file from the race results folder, you have to wait until everybody has logged off before logging of yourself. The one on the server should match what you see on the in game scoreboard once everybody has logged out.

Thanks. Someone was asking why their scores were decreasing everytime someone left the server. I think you are saying that the scores in the server csv will only match the in-game scores for the last person to disconnect from the server.

The points somebody scores depends, in part, on the ratio of finishers to participants. So it will only be correct once everybody has finished and/or landed out/disconnected.

So only once nobody is flying the task anymore scores will be correct. If somebody who is still flying the task disconnects it changes the ratio and the scores for everybody will change
