After reading through the "testing" https://wiki.gpro.net/index.php?title=Testing Section and the forums, I am still confused and not sure if I missed something Or if it's one of those items we are expected to discover ourselves.

If I missed something, here is my question:

After all the testing is completed and all the stages of transformation completed and car character points added to the car, how long does the car stay "improved" from the addition of CCP? and can you see the deterioration of additional CCP from testing anywhere in the game, or do you have to track/estimate that yourself?

BTW - I have not done any testing yet, just preparing/planning for future testing sessions.

Thanks.

You´ll need to figure out by yourself since certain conditions influence the duration of your CCP points.

You can track them in the Car Character Points History that you can access from the testing page below the CCP points.

the loss of the points achieved will be progressive, and you will be able to see it for yourself

Not sure if I understood correctly, so let's try and see:

/CCPHistory.asp

You do not need to keep track manually of the CCP variations, you have all the CCP history available there to analyze, as long as you stay as a supporter.

This is FOBY, yes. But as a general orientation, the higher the points are, the faster they deteriorate.

Hello,

Is it normal to lose a point the next race aftfer I just received them? I expected to last a few races before I begin to lose them. It;s the very first points received in testing, that's why I think is weird.

10x and I hope it;s not a FOBY question.

Depends how much CCP you have. If you don't keep up with it, they will degrade slowly over time. Its hard to say how much by, but it could be you had a lot and its just degraded

The particulars kind'a are.

But I can say this: Tested CCP do degrade, and also how much you get from a single testing session depends on multiple factors.

As result of this, the benefits of testing may be limited specially in rookie/amateur.
by this I don't mean that it would be completely pointless, just saying not to expect to get too much out of it

I'm assuming you saw the number go down by one from where it was last race. So you obviously lost some CCP but that doesn't necessarily mean you lost a point of CCP.

But indeed CCP do degrade over time, starting from when you get them.

Hopefully that helps.

You have some test points after testing. That test points convert into R&D, then in Engineering and in the end (after 3 races) in Car Character points. So you don't have ccp yet and you don't lose anything.

Test points work like radioactive elements.

If you know physics a bit that will give you more than enough information :p

I know you lose CCP over time. I was shocked I lost some of them the next race, considering those were my first points ever. I knew they lasted a few races before you start to lose them. But George' reply really helped, I probably lost a few decimals of a point and when the game shows it like I lost a whole point.

10x for all the replies

Think some guys are talking of diferent things....
After testing you get points,but those dont go to your car till the 3rd race.
Before that they go through diferent stations and there you notice the loss of points is a fair amount.Once they get to the last line after the 3rd race,those points are added to your car and degrade much slower.As many guys said,the more you have the more they degrade,but much slower than in the 3 diferent stations....

Can we stop ?

The answer was here, decimal place... If someone can't understand it.... Just live the game, there is rounding anywhere :)

So basically you are saying, that anyone can answer with anything, going way off topic, with 0 intention of helping or answering the question, no wonder people don't read most of the old thread's, because they always go off topic and no one give's a s about it ...

I was just civilized and thanked the guys who replied to my, let's call it problem, by making it clear that I understood what they said. Sorry I lost you 10 seconds to read my reply, you are an awesome guy with a great attitude. It;s probably what got you so far in this game.

Have fun!!

@Marian Enache (Ret)
I realize that this post is my worst disliked !

At this time, i have lost my father from some months and i'm in some troubles missing analyze on topics.

To answer the original question, you gain CCP by testing, but they are not linear and eventually related to your staff or TD

The other problem is than when you don't test, you will probably loose CCP

It's a hard problem ^
