After registering for an mp event now becomes a 'participant'. The participant knows the time schedule, and like for a 'real' r/c event you have to show up in time to participate. In that respect mp events are completely different from regular VRC events where you have a time slot of 1 or more days to get your runs in for each round. MP events are time-restrained!
To go to your mp event you select the option 'MP EVENTS' from the main menu and select the MP event you registered for. Automatically the current round shows up with the planned sessions. In this example the Quarter Final round which has 4 mp sessions. Each session has a time slot set by the mp event organizer (MPEO). To cope with unforeseen circumstances the MPEO can adjust the time schedule and will communicate any changes directly with all the participants in that round.
Semi-final A is planned to take place between 20:00 and 20:25 with probably 3 'races' of 5 minutes. The best of these 3 'races' (in normal event mode these are called tr... read more

So how would a multi-player event look like? I think that is probably the most important aspect of this project from the racer point of view. In regular VRC events each round has a fixed begin and end time, you have to do your runs inside that time slot. You get a number of 'tries' for each round, for example 6 for the Qualifying round, 3 for the semi finals and 2 for the main final.
In the multi-player event structure we always with a Qualifying round, open to 999 max. racers. The reason for this is that the mp event can be part of a series and we don't want any racer who is competing for the Series, to be excluded from an mp event because he is too late with registration. The Qualifying round is always off-line type. It works like a pre-selection for the multi-player event and it seats the participants in the next round.
The event is multi-player from now on, for example a multi-player Quarter final, Semi Final and Main Final. We call these different finals also 'ROUNDS' but the difference with the s... read more
