Speeding up simulation speed?
alm51
Hi!

Currently on my first year as a new pro in PCM18, and the time that simulating all the stages takes during crowded parts of the race calendar is killing me. When my pro is on a "vacation period", and simulating a day takes 20-30 seconds, the waiting time can get really frustrating, as you just want to get to the next period in which your rider is able to begin building form again.

So TL;DR: simming through the downtime between form peaks, when your pro is resting, is taking ages (10mins+ for a month), and I was wondering if there is any way to speed these up?

Thanks in advance!

Not as far as I know. Each race/stage needs a few seconds, so it depends on how full the calendar is. You don't have to do it day by day, though, find out how to simulate to a chosen date. Then you know you can take a break of 10+ minutes. May I recommend some light exercise while you're waiting? Smile

Ah, that sucks! Not too bad of a suggestion, but my issue lies in the fact that I don't have much time to play these days. Spending that much time simply waiting for the game to simulate races, makes me want to switch to other games in which I don't have to deal with that much downtime between actually playing.Frown

Hopefully they'll look into speeding it up at some point! I don't remember it being quite as bad in prior versionsRolling Eyes
