Maybe. Same story again yesterday but with paced ride in London, not Watopia. All was ok for the remainder of the 30k ride because I made sure to stay within 10 m from the robopacer. Is a fix coming soon?
The RoboPacer issue is well known and should have a fix coming in 1.79 this week
Hi Trevor, I’m finding a really annoying thing has been happening for approx the last 2 weeks. My avatar can no longer ‘pass through’ other riders. I have a Kickr Bike V2 so I’m able to steer. I used to ride generally in the centre of the peloton with little need for position adjustment unless I decided I wanted to cut up the inside of a corner etc. Now, I’m continually pushing my steering buttons to remain in the centre of the group. My avatar is constantly being pushed to the edges of the peloton by other riders coming from behind or drifting back from in front. My avatar moves around everywhere to make way for other riders. Now, instead of concentrating on riding and staying with the group I’m persistently needing to adjust steering and power to attempt (mostly unsuccessfully) to maintain my position or not get thrown out the back if I’ve been shifted to the outside of the pack on a corner. My avatar will move the full width of the pack in an instant at times. I know pro’s want to make it more like real life but seriously, this is one of the worst things, among the many terrible things Zwift has done in trying to appease professional riders. I’ve dropped $6500 AUD for a Kickr bike only to find one of it’s main components barely works anymore due to an update!
I asked during a D cat bot ride tonight if anyone else was seeing the same thing, to which I had a number of replies (3 or 4) from people saying they were suffering with it also. What is the best way to bring this to the attention of someone at Zwift? Is there a person we can directly email to voice our concerns??
Hi, a couple of months went by. The issue is still there Zwift keeps crashing on start-up. Now mainly just after signing in. I can’t remember that I did back to back rides the last period, so I’m not able to tell if this is solved.
I believe it was resolved for a couple of weeks after a reinstall
This is still not fixed
Thanks for the bump @Alex_Bennett1 , I’ll ask the team to look at this.

Issue not completely fixed, unfortunately. Happened to me twice in the past weeks again. Robopacer suddenly disappeared, no matter how long I stop pedaling to wait for it.
Also, as others have mentioned, I now have to fight continuously to steer my way back in the middle of the peloton as I am continually pushed to the side of the peloton by other riders. It didn’t do that in the past when I could remain in my track without touching my steering buttons.
For me those are two major frustrating game downgrades pushing me to look for alternatives despite being at level 56.
