Collision but no slow-down?

street s2 custom open, someone hit me from behind but I did not speed up and they did not slow down as they overtook me, just carried on in a straight line through my car

is this a lag thing?

It could be lag as there isn’t always contact for the other player when it appears to be the case for you but I also saw players that were able to have their car permanently ghosted without the car showing as semi-transparent. These players are able to drive through other players and AI without any collision.

Here’s an other example of something that shouldn’t have happend and can’t be explained by lag or what ever.

One player gets pushed into a house in the first corner by an other and comes to a complete standstill. A split second later he bumps into my tail accelerating my car by ~50 km/h. That’s simply impossible.

Sidenote: Also look at the tire skid marks the player in 1st position is leaving (clearly visible starting in lap 2). Especially in corners they’ve a very strange zigzag pattern that I haven’t observed in such form before.

At the moment strange things are going on again. IMO the amount of mod menu users has massively increased in the last week or so. I already had one guy banned that clearly was running a speedhack with gravity multiplier in freeroam but it isn’t always that obvious. Fortunately the support is quick with taking action now and I got a response within two days or so. That said the situation is still bad and clearly shows that the(se) game(s) need a build in anti-cheat that’s worth the description because relying on reports in such cases is just subpar.

I felt a bump, the road was otherwise completely clear and it exactly coincided with the appearance of the car

when I posted I had forgotten about the collision detection, it’s as if that activated but a split second too late so the beginning of an impact occurred but then the car continued on as normal

it was odd whatever the case, not had anything like that before

by zig-zag, you mean the line isn’t smooth but . . .

5m straight-line skid, then another that is not connected to the first one, then another and so on, it’s broken into these 5m chunks

no, not seen that

I’m talking about these “staircases” here.

yeah, that’s the one - odd

I’ve also never seen something like this before. At least not to this extent. That’s why I’m suspicious here.

And the next race with the same strange pattern.

I could be completely off base but it reminds me of the repeating pattern of a keyboard key being held down. :person_shrugging: idk, just what comes to mind.

Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s a lag thing. It could be that the player’s position keeps snapping to where the server thinks they are.
