Hi guys,
just wondering if anyone has had this problem,
When I was player with patch v1.2.0.0 the AI would never relay in a breakaway with one of my riders in it.
Updated to v1.3.0.0 thinking it was a bug but AI only relay once in a while.
this is quiet annoying seeing as im wasting my teammates energy to try and keep a breakaway
cheers,
PS, Im playing with PCMdaily database |

Just go down with your % a bit.
55% for example. When they still don`t relay try it a bit lower.
I experienced that in the begin they do quite less like 50-55%.
Later when the peloton started to reduce the gap they go higher like 65-70%.
On climbs it`s a bit different as there the stronger riders do the most. |

I just have it a go,
i put my % as 45 and I was still the only one doing anything, and the peleton just catches up |

What rider do you send into the breakaway? Is it a good one? Maybe too good? Stage favourite or so?
Or is the rider well placed in the overall? Just a few seconds behind?
And sometimes it takes 4-5 attempts until the breakaway is formed and the peloton stops the high pace. Can take 50-60km. |

bennati (10mins down on a hill stage)
Kloden (stage one hill ish)
Fuglsang ( same as Kloden)
i can just keed attacking untill my rider is tired and falls out the back for the bunch. and at anytime of the races. ie. of the mark, half way or 50km to go |

Klöden and Fuglsang might be too strong to join the early breakaway. Bennati might be a stage favourite if it`s not too hilly.
Try it with a helper with low average again.
When your riders are in form they shouldn`t fall off the pack. Sometimes this happens in PCM12 and you always must be concentrated to check where your riders are.
In especially in the final when the sprint starts and the peloton splits.

the only reason why they fall off the pack is because i keep trying to make the breaks and they have no stamina(sprint bar) to hold on.
ill give it a go a bit later with a helper and ill get back to you
thanks again |

Please bear in mind stamina is in fact not the sprint/red bar. That is acceleration. |

The yellow bar is Resistance, Stamina is the green bar during the race, and Recovery is how full the green bar will be the next day(so only useful in stage races) |
