Problem/Bug: New Records wont get accepted by the game

Explaination of the Problem/Bug: If a rider gets a new record f.e. Rui Costa winning his 4th Tour de Suisse win, there is no message about it. Likewise with Tony MArtin winning his 4th WC TT.

PCM Version: 1.8.1.0

Edit: I found the problem, the records in the database are only up to date till 2011 for most of the races, so many Records are hard to beat with the "old" riders.

Problem/Bug: Freshness / Fitness in One-Off Race Mode

Explanation: I dont know if it exactly is a bug, but in One-Off Race Mode, during a GT, there are no rest days, which means Freshness/Fitness is really bad in the last 2 weeks for my riders, and I have the feeling other teams' riders do regain freshness after e.g. stage 10 of a GT. I went and checked on the Editor in dyn_cycling_fitness and saw that other riders have much better Finess than mine, while Freshness is not clear who has better. It has been bugging me since PCM 15 and despite not often playing Single Race Mode, i notice a big diference from Career /Pro Cyclist.

Version: latest
p.s.: I searched all over the forum, no mention at all of the problem... guess no one plays One-Off Races Grin

Problem/Bug: Riders trying to distance their own leader

Explaination of the Problem/Bug: In one race, Tao Geoghagen Hart (the leader of Axeon) fell and half of the team waited to help him return to the peloton. However, at the same time Curran, also from Axeon, was setting high tempo at the front of the peloton (together with some other teams) in order to prevent Hart from coming back.

Reproducability (always/sometimes/random/Not tried to reproduce/unable to reproduce): N/A

Found another Bug, this time more ridiculous Rolling Eyes :lol::

Problem/Bug: Car stopping riders from moving foward

Explanation: I've seen this happen to me a lot of times, that a car glitches at the front of a group and riders have a bit of trouble moving around the car (or they just go through), but this glitch became game-breaking when I was on a climb in the TDF variant v4. It was a climb with narrow gravelroads, and the car just stood in front of the pack. Shortly before that, three favorites had attacked (one of which was just 16 seconds of the leader jersey) but I let them go knowing I could reel them in. Then when I wanted to chase them, I simply could not move past the car, and neither could anyone else (for 2 long minutes!!!). I did dot 99 (thus wasting energy) and I still couldnt move. After a while we finally did move but we couldnt catch them, and thus I lost 2:30 to them, and because it's in Extreme, you won't get that time back. The game already has some game-breaking glitches, but this one takes it up a notch, has it made that stage literally unplayable.

I've had that exact thing too.

Probably not really a bug, but more of a game design fault

At Be a Pro mode: I attacked on a hill about 8km before finish, and could finish around 20 sec before second rider. But the game only gives a difference in actual results if the time difference is higher ( i believe 23sec orso ) in 3D. While in quick simulation you see differences as small as 7 sec.
This is really annoying in 3D because in this race, 72 riders got the same time as my rider, while rider 73 had a 5min21 difference ( and he wasn't that far behind rider 72 ).
It's a bit crazy that 100x a small gap makes no difference in time, but a bit larger gap makes the time difference enormous.

I suggest that in future games, the time difference at the line is calculated a bit more precise, that 17sec = 17sec and not the same gap.

This is something occuring in the tour of quatar at be a pro mode.
I'm one of the favorites in the final stage and i'm using the hard crosswinds to tire the peleton and the other favorites ( primarily kittel ) before the finish. Already three times we go in the last 10km with a small group ( around 20-30 riders ).
When i attack with my rider i get a small gap, and kittel tries to chase me down ( because no helpers left ).
You clearly see he has no energy left ( the typical movement of a empty rider ) and the time gap rises ( from 20-35 sec ). Myself i'm riding at 70-75 efford ( max i can keep to finish ).
All of a sudden it's the last 3 km, and kittel starts sprinting ( with what energy? ) and he's like superman and sprints that gap of 35secs like it's nothing

I think at 3km the stats kinda switch from flat to sprint, but the extra energy he gets for sprinting ( i don't know where he gets it ).
This is an unfair advantage, because if i'm out of energy = low speed. He just get's an enormous boost from his high sprint stat ( even without energy )

Stage wins don't count as races, you need to win a classic or a stage race's GC.

Teams still go over the 30 rider limit and sign more and more riders every season as their budget grows. Some teams in my Pro cyclist have more than 40 riders in 2020.

Someone have any idea how to fix it?

No way to fix it, it's a bug in something that is hardcoded in the game. Gotta transfer riders manually.
