80% of all Stadium tech maps (especially TrueTalentCup maps) fit into this theme. I recognized these maps consist all the time only of 180° turns, which I didn't like, as creativity and variation was missing, when they had no rule which forced them to build it like this.

@ haenry

1 - Let's say i have a 70° turn, going into a full tube but i have to turn all tube long to make it, it's ok?

2 - If i have a turn of about 110° leading to a quarter pipe, this quarter pipe linked to one wall block, linked to a 3/4 pipe but i still have to turn all long to make it the right way? Since the angle comes to 3d going in different directions idk how it goes.

Fredair, that gif took ages to load, but it seems fine.

DrHugs, make it a 45° entrance in 1 and it looks okay. The tube is mainly straight it seems.

The 2nd thing looks okay, if the entrance of the tube is <45° ;)

hmm I see what you mean Heanry I'll fix it right now :p
anyways here is the top view. I think that U-turn is questionable. some will say it's valid while others will say its not.


edit: well I just found out it depends on how you drive it. you can drive it like this \_/ but if you drive a bit more straight you get a nice U just made a few runs like this. only need to delete that cp behind than.

The red turn is the problem. A full red turn and then the orange path would work fine. But the blue turn is a bit too short compared to the red ;)
If it depends on the driving line, you should make sure that the fastest line has correct u-turns ;)

so basically we can make only 2 kind of turns: 1.very small less than 45° 2.big 180° or more(i.e. 270°/360°), am I right?

two questions: 2 right turn (45°) allowed?

Is this allowed? (I build a new map because my old one sucked) because i build 2 drops with points where you dont steer (2 drops)

In those pink areas, do you have to drive straight a little bit?

Because then those are not continuous turns and so it doesn't count as one big u-turn ;)

if you steer (in the air) you start drifting after landing
