Camera Race Not Targeting Properly 2017-09-01 00:13:37  
So I'm finishing up my MTC map and I notice that the GPS isn't functioning properly. For some reason, the Camera Race is ignoring the target I set and is instead continuing to follow the player. At this point, I do not know how to fix this issue. The following video shows my problem: https://youtu.be/wYQh28Anbuc

try 0 or 2
if you validate and import your replay you have 2 replay but one is virtually, your "ghost" from validation is not valid here buuuuuuug
your name is more than one time there for sure, try both !

I know there's a problem when there are multiple possible ghost targets and only one ghost, but that's not the problem I was having (though I didn't show all available targets in the video, so it's understandable that you'd think it might be the problem). The targeted ghost is the only available target. I'll double check that tomorrow, though, just in case.

Unfortunately, the "extra" ghost is not the problem I am having. I've re-recorded the problem to show that there's only one ghost to target both before and after driving. Here's a few other things that may or may not help:

- The course is larger than 2 mb at its current state
- The recorded video is off of a fresh game launch. No other courses have been driven/edited and no changes were made to my course prior to recording
- The camera is forced to close during the sequence, I am unable to change is to any other angle
- This is using the custom RallyCross titlepack
- There are a lot of ghosts recorded on the "start" In-Game sequence (the same one with the "GPS back" text), and there are some in the ambient sequence as well
- Here's the new video I mentioned: https://youtu.be/jdgllw6Moi8

I could probably use Camera Custom if worse comes to worse, but if anyone can figure this one out I'd be grateful. If anyone needs any information (or even the map file), just ask and I can post it.

Update on the oddity. I tried to implement my GPS using a Custom Camera block, and it turned out that this did not help at all. Same problem as the Camera Race; despite being set to anchor to the only ghost available, the camera ignores this anchor and goes off on its own. I also tested this with Camera Path; same problem. Video evidence below.

I have not yet checked if this is map-specific or if it occurs to all maps I edit.
