seriously folks! We have Rockets, Scripting, AND Alot of mayham. Let's breath some life into a Racing Mod!


First, too kick off discussion, What are the Sane Limits of horizontal and vertical space in CC? can Vertical Space be Looped? Can Gravity/Air resistance be turned down/off? is there support to "map jump" for seamless campaigns? (Yes I went there!) and lastly: Can CC's engine allow for timing and potentially Lap Keeping? Let's get Rolli... err.. Smoking!

It varies from computer to computer, yes, yes, yes but it is difficult, yes and yes.

Wonderful.. Unfortuently, I don't know alot of or about Lua.. i'mma start learning it, But I'm definatly open too both help and ideas..

Map wrapping is viable in both the X and Y directions. I spent a good amount of time ♥♥♥♥ around with what was effectively space that was infinite by means of recursion. It is surprisingly fun.

Anyway, as for lap-tracking, you might make some sort of actor or some such that records when it is passed by another actor, and place that as the marker for the end of a lap.

Timers have been done. I think.

Gravity and air resistance are alterable variables, yes.

See "Exodus" in Scene Releases. It has different scenes together in one mission.

Lord Tim already made a scene involving racing rockets. It did so successfully that it hasn't been updated to the latest build and barely exists on the forum at all.

Zalopagos islands is a kind of race, too, don't forget!

I don't think I have that map..

Why, use the search function, lad! Once you find the thread, pester Zalo to update it to B24! ...or has he done that already?

<3 watermelon racing.
Porting all those old "game modes" to B24-style "game modes" would be cool, and not too time-consuming either.

I hear that, somebody point me to one that they want and I'll take a crack at converting it.
