Why does this happen when changing the class/rating?

I have found out that when changing the
class/rating of a car to the
negatives or
over 2 (for class) or
over 6 (for rating) it will display them as some strings that are used somewhere else.

Hi! I don't know if I'm the only one but we can't see your pictures...
And here is what
RVGL documentation say :
Code: Select all
Customize user cars through new entries in the car's "parameters.txt" file.
For compatibility with the original versions of the game,
the "parameters.txt" specification supports a comment closer.
This is a closing paranthesis following the semi-colon, or ;).
Prepending this at each line causes the line to be skipped by the original versions
while it is still read by RVGL.
A line can be included twice, first without the comment closer and then with. Eg.,
Rating 4 ; Pro in original version
;)Rating 5 ; Super Pro in RVGL
Code: Select all
Car Classes
As of version 20.0210a, there are new Rating and Obtain values.
Set Rating to 5 to add a Super Pro car. These are a class of cars faster than Pros.
Set Obtain to 5 to unlock the car upon completing Stunt Arena. General syntax:
Rating 5 ; Skill level (0-5)
Obtain 5 ; Obtain method (0-5 or -1)
Look like the values you wish aren't suposed to be set... And I hope you didn't forget the ":)" if needed

That's because it selects the string to display for class and rating based on some offset plus the number given. So if you go outside the expected range, you just get other strings from the game, that are located around the strings for class and rating in the game's files.
