Description: When pausing in an online lobby set to 110 AI, the substitute AI lacks straight-line speed and laps 3 seconds slower than the real grid AI (e.g., Hamilton).
Evidence/Testing Done: Confirmed the issue is tied to ERS/Battery deployment logic. Tested via two dummy accounts (one with ERS Assist ON, one with ERS Assist OFF). When paused, both cars behave identically, turning off deployment prematurely on the straights. This proves the multiplayer pause state utilizes a hardcoded substitute script that ignores the lobby's 110 difficulty setting and does not utilize the new 2026 hybrid maps.
