Race Control
Queue track, class, direction, and laps using the validated internal HP2 command bridge.
Race Profiles
Unrun Combo is a protected built-in profile. It is always available and cannot be deleted.
Schedule
Schedule profiles by weekday or use Daily. Out of the box, Unrun Combo runs Daily at 11:50 AM Eastern Time. It can be turned off, but its protected schedule/profile cannot be removed.
Server Settings
HPDC detects a new dedicated-server process after a crash or restart, waits for the startup delay, and applies these defaults once.
Primary Server
Configure the dedicated-server executable HPDC owns. When enabled, HPDC starts it automatically and skips launch if that exact executable is already running.
HP2 Command Console
Directly queue a slash command through HP2's validated internal command routine.
Raw commands must start with /.

OpenSpy Status
Validate OpenSpy connectivity and review the hosting checklist.
Run validation after HP2/OpenSpy is installed.
8511, 289001230, 8512, 27900, 61220-61230TCP 8513 — LAN / HTTPS-VPN onlyThe HP2 port set is used as the appliance hosting checklist. Windows Firewall rules are only half of the path: your router/firewall must forward the required HP2 ports to the Windows VM. CGNAT or double NAT can prevent a server from appearing or being joinable.
Logs
View the same launcher, HPDC, collector, HP2 server, appliance-watchdog and OpenSpy diagnostics remotely without opening the VM console.

ASAC Dedicated Server Import
Import historical .sac race-list files from the old ASAC Dedicated Server. HPDC converts each race into its native race JSON format so it appears in race history and can be used by future ratings/statistics.
list.sac filesDuplicate races are skipped automatically. Original files are archived under imports\asac\originals. Historical timestamps are preserved, so old imports do not replace your current Last Race.
Moderation Queue
Approve racer merges, team registrations, and invalid-race flags. Approved invalid races remain in Race History but are removed from competitive leaderboards, ratings, and aggregate record calculations.
Top speeds above the class limit are flagged as Possible Wrong TOP Speed. Lap times faster than the track/class threshold are flagged as Possible Time Warp.
| Track | Class 1 | Class 2 | Class 3 | Class 4 | Class 5 |

Car Merger Report
Potential duplicate car names with at least 90% similarity. Manufacturer-only prefixes can match exactly, but model and trim tokens remain significant. The car used in the most recent race is selected as the default survivor.
Backup & Restore
Protect race history, imported ASAC files, moderation data, profiles, schedules, teams, aliases, and HPDC configuration. Application code and transient live files are not included.
Create a backup before upgrades. For a fresh HPDC extraction, either point Backup Folder at your external backup directory or upload a previously downloaded HPDC backup.
Accounts
Assign a known racer an email login with Admin or Operator access. The built-in admin account is the protected owner.
