What's coming in 1.1

[factoryseatlmuapp]

Thanks to everyone who's tried Factory Seat in its first few days, and especially to everyone who took the time to suggest something. Here's what 1.1 brings. It's built and being tested; it ships when the translations have been checked, not before.

🌐 Factory Seat in your language
Korean, German, French, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, picked automatically from the language you run LMU in (Steam › Properties › Language), or in Settings. The race briefing uses the exact names LMU gives its settings in your language, checked against the game, so you can find every setting in the game's own menus.

Translations are plain files anyone can improve or add to. Requested by Abject-Pressure-4402 on Reddit and arch642 here (#2), who also sent in a full Korean translation. Thank you!

✅ A setup checklist in the briefing
Tick off each setting as you set it in LMU, with a count of how many are done. It's only a helper and never blocks anything. Thanks to the Reddit feedback about how much there is to set up.

⛽ Real fuel for full-length races
Run a 12 or 24 hour race at its real length and the briefing now says Real fuel and tires, so you get the real race's pit stops instead of twice as many. Thanks to geodillo429 for spotting it.

💾 Saved races are recognized more reliably
A race you save to finish later counts as saved however long you sit in the menus before leaving, and when you load the save another day and back out. No more being asked about a DNF you didn't have.

🔒 Even quieter on your network
The app no longer looks up its own internal address on your network when it starts. Its only online request is still the optional update check.

Looking for translators 🙋
The German, French, Spanish and Portuguese translations are first drafts. If you play LMU in one of those languages and would read through it, reply here. It's one file, and every correction helps.

After 1.1
Planned for the release after:

• GTE "classic" seasons (thanks Easy-Barnacle-9529) (GTE "classic" seasons #4)
• A "championship only" mode that hides reputation, sponsors and offers, leaving just seasons and points (thanks CitronNo9318 and imJGott) ("Championship only" mode #5)
• Achievements and a records tab (Achievements, records and the endgame: what should happen after Hypercar? #7)

Got an idea? Drop it in Ideas. That's where I look first when planning what comes next.
