Please notice the new rule for checkpoints: Please put at least one respawnable CP into your part. Every CP you set up must be respawnable.


great that there is now an official rule. (y)

damn, those scenery blocks don't allow me to make drift to the right instead of the finish... forbidden to remove, right?

what about reading the rules?
... says:
4. You can modify landscape if necessary, but you must not change the driving experience of a previous stage.

Therefore, you may change the scenery unless you change the driving experience. ;)
or did I misunderstand you?

in rules 'track layout' is only the driving line and 'landscape' is scenery + terraforming?

Edit: wtf, I don't have permission to upload new version of the track..

@tuutti: I've deleted the wrong version. You can upload your updated track now.

@Space: Like tmjonas said, if it doesn't change the driving experience, you can do that (although "driving experience" might be subjective :p)

It doesn't really matter where you place the cp, right? :)

Not within the rules, but naturally, a badly placed checkpoint might lower your score with the judges, as it might lower their opinion of your stage.

I'd recommend you to consider how tmjonas had his checkpoints just before the slide turn and the final drop, in other words before the two spots where a new driver could be caught by surprise and crash. A great example of well-thought checkpoint placement.

That should mean I should change mine, but then again I don't have space to do it (I used literally 10 blocks on layout).
