grinder problems

[un4givn85]

I set up grinder yesterday and its not using all the available drivers.
Am I doing something wrong?

Is it not seeing all your shared drivers? You can only use one driver at a time when hosting races.

it uses my drivers at random just fine
it doesnt use all the available drivers in my friends list
it shows them in the widget and if i do it manually i can add a total of 15 drivers for a 16 person race
i have enough available drivers to fill 2 races almost
i dont know whats going on
currently it is only using 9-11 drivers total in a race

You might want to reduce the number of threads and/or increase the wait time in the preferences menu. Play around with it until you're consistently getting 15-16 drivers per race.

I reduced the number of threads to one like in the video. What does that do anyway?
I will have to look for the wait time setting.

do you have the widget set to "o drivers avail" or "1 driver avail" that way you maximise the driver usage from your friends list, I usually run the grinder on my main account to get some cash using my secondary accounts B-spec to host the widget, and always set it to 0 drivers avail, so it uses all my drivers all the time.

for whatever reason it has started to use all driver slots now, not all the time but in most races it does
still a great widget and im not gonna stop using it lol
