    as the title says, time for immense fun!!

    really cannot wait for this, I do real banger racing myself and its very exciting to do! (apart from the injuries)

    I first noticed it on the board on the main screen when the game is started...

    but yeah cannot wait ;)

    can I ask if It will take a long time to get to?

    Well, you can have an impromptu demo derby right now if you set up some AI cars (on puregrid or in the arena) and set them to chase you (though there's no good engine damage yet).

    As for real, official demo derbies: we don't have an ETA on that (to be honest, we haven't started yet... so much to do still!). Eventually it'll be integrated into a proper career mode as one of the event types you'll see on some kind of "event board." To begin with it'll just be something you grab from the main menu, choose a map and vehicles and hit go. Same PC demo derbies are pretty difficult because there's a lot of complex input logic to code to be able to control two cars at once.

    A long time? Yes, maybe, no? It's hard to say. There are 100,000 things we need to do, and we need to figure out our priorities. The code work itself would probably not be more than a few days, but there are (in our opinion) still more important issues to tackle.

    thank you for the quick reply :)

    however I have massive troubles getting the AI to work in the first place to even chase me?
    when I enableAI bla bla bla in the world editor and then unfreeze game and get the AI panel up and make them chase me they don't move at all and when I reset my car, SOMETIMES they come to life... hard to really explain :/

    just find it difficult, Is there a detailed video tutorial?

    You're on the right track. After your ladt step, setting the AI to chase you, press tab to switch through all of the cars. Each car you have just tabbed from will start to chase one by one after each time you press tab.

    Yep, tab through the cars first. What I usually do is bring in the cars I want, tab to each one and drive it to where I want it to start from. Then I select the car I want to use and set the AI to chase. It works great.
