All tracks in Live for Speed feature several static and dynamic conditions that may affect car handling.
Weather
Wind
There are three wind speed settings: no wind, low wind and high wind. Wind speed can be set in the game lobby screen or by using the /wind command. The wind direction and speed is randomized with every start of a session, plus the wind direction itself can change during the course of the session too. The wind speed ranges for each setting are the following:
- no wind
- low wind - 1-24 km/h (? mph)
- high wind - 25/50 km/h (? mph)
To check the current wind speed and direction on track, observe moving flags around the track. Some trees also sway in the wind.
Wind has a noticeable impact on your lap times and braking points. When you press F to see the forces view, there are visual indicators of the wind's lateral and longitudinal force components acting on the car - look for bright yellow arrows in the middle of the car.
