Re: AI Cars lagging/jittering around constantly during races

We might have found something in regard to this issue: The other night we noticed that my co-op partner had left the 'Enable Telemetry' option turned on from where we were capturing some data late last week. While we haven't actually been capturing anything at all since, the reported issues did start to occur around the last time that we were using the telemetry (which, annoyingly, coincided with the 1.07 patch).

Last night, now having turned that option off, we had our first race all week without a single issue (whereas the best we've had all week has been some minor, re-occurring jittering). I also checked the co-op lobby, and that's showing 3/4 bars consistently for both players now, which is much better (although not perfect).

This really needs more than one race to check it isn't a coincidence (which I'll do over the next week), but it's looking like that could be the cause (or at least having a big impact on things). I wouldn't have thought the telemetry should have this sort of impact, but it's also not out of the realm of unreasonable, especially if it's broadcasting a lot of stuff constantly.

I have this issue with my friend when we are playing 2 player, only me and not him which is really annoying. Do you know if the telemetry was the issue in the end? Would be good to know as I would love to see this resolved.

Any update on this? I'm having the same issue lately

@TigerIFEI have no idea dude only reason I know it’s likely a convection issue cause I know a couple of people who use 4G to play co-op and results in Ai cars jumping around

problem is because co-op is peer to peer it could simply be because your isp and  your co-op partners isp may miss something that normally wouldn’t matter

Almost certainly. Port forwarding or PnP issues when using two consoles attached to the same SOHO router using the same services will almost inevitably run into issues.

So it's likely a LAN side issue manifesting as a WAN side one. Also the game does use or transmit AI car packet information (if only internally) to record gameplay. Telemetry issues exist within the game as well. 

Doesn't even need to be a *perfect* storm....just a bit breezy and spotting. 🥳
