Hello everyone, I know that it is possible to add up to 47 opponents in a race, as long as the track has enough pit stall spaces. What do I need to do in the track.ini to add these pit stalls (if there is anything outside of the .ini that I need to do that would be greatly appreciated as well.)? I'm trying to add 47 pit stalls to the Indianapolis 2014 track.
Thanks!

In general you would have to open a track in Sandbox, create the extra space needed for the new stalls and then edit the track.ini to reflect the new stalls, length of the pit lane (start and end), and possibly even make new pit lp files if your new stalls hamper the flow of the AI entering or exiting the updated pit area. You can have a max of 47 cars. - NOTE: The track you edit has to be able to hold these cars. Don't even bother trying this on a short track. There is RARELY enough room.

Thanks! I'll check if Indy can fit that, but I need to learn sandbox a little bit first as well. Thank you for the advice though!

In Sandbox, the part specifically I think you'll need to look for is applying the correct sub-surface property. You can change it in the Geometry editing view and you'll want to select "Pit Road" and "Pit Stall" properties respectively. There's also a "View" that will show the surface property from a distance via different colors. The blue colored is Pit Road and light blue is Pit Stall. These will need to be applied accurately in coordination with the track.ini values JNorton touched on.
