Request regarding spare tyres
Hi, just a suggestion here that'd be much, much appreciate by those of us with terrible memory. If you get a puncture the game defaults to zero spare tyres at the next service. It is very easy to forget to fit a spare tyre and have your rally ruined (like mine just was).
This isn't something that ever really happens at IRL rallies... Like this game is simulating high level rally with service crews. They're gonna check that sort of thing and replace them as necessary. Even at club level events when it's been myself, my nav, and maybe one or two other people helping it's just something that's done every service (plus you're not going to forget a flat IRL like you do in the sim lol).
It'd be really nice if the game defaulted to what the driver had selected previously (or, if left on default, it stays default), not to what is currently in the car. Getting a flat is not going to make you decide to carry no spare for the next stage, you're going to put a new one in.
I know it's been said a zillion times, but while I'm here, it'd also be really nice to get individual tyre management. Like FWD cars wear the front tyres a lot more, it'd be nice to be able to rotate them on the roadside between stages. Or it'd be nice to be able to put wets on the rear & say softs on the front if you have a dry stage followed by a wet stage - then rotate them on the road section. Or if we could carry 2 spares and swap them on in place of worn tyres, that'd help a lot with the limited tyre allocation on long rallies.
