Automobilista 2 - Update V1.5.5.6 Deployed

Reiza Studios deployed Update V1.5.5.6 for the Automobilista 2 racing simulator.

The previous update introduced a few errors with the new dynamic AI corridor function making useable roads by the AI a little tighter and therefore, their overtaking ability a little harder than it should. Furthermore, the development team worked on some improvements for AI, physics, Force Feedback, and more.

Check out the changelog for all the details.
