Maybe this can't be fixed, but I notice that sometimes when I'm racing (usually with the GRAND PRIX's) and I press the "escape" (esc) button to see the options some options are missing. Can this be fixed, or is it not possible?

Hi,
which irrlicht version are you using? This is a bug in irrlicht versions older than 1.7.2

ggreen, which operating system are you using?
Non-rolling release distros in the GNU/Linux world tend to have either Irrlicht 1.7 or 1.7.1, since 1.7.2 is quite new.

Hi,
apparently the irrlicht version in the Windows build should be OK. Could you please post a screenshot of the problem?

I haven't seen this (since the original bug got fixed in irrlicht 1.7.2 alpha). So you see 'some' options, but not all? What about text? Can you post a screenshot?
Thanks!

Options in a normal race.

Please note that I haven't designed these screens, but it almost feels like the restart-button is missing by design.
In my opinion, having inifinite retries defeats the purpose of a Grand Prix. If you wipe out in a race, you have to comensate this with wins in other races. Which adds to the allure of a Grand Prix. But when you introduce infinite retries, what is a Grand Prix more than a sequence of races?

I understand, sorry for bothering you about this and I think that the no-restart-button was a good idea.

Yes this is by design

Thanks for testing STK
