Welcome to the third
ManiaExchange 90 Minute Contest / [90MC] on March 31st, 2017, brought to you by
Solux &
iHq/fredair.esu.
The task in this competition is to build a track in 90 minutes or less, according to the theme which is announced at the start of the edition. Before the end of the 90 minute timelimit the track has to be uploaded to MX and a link to the map has then to be posted in this thread (the latter being excluded from the timelimit - only the upload time counts).
The competition starts as soon as this post is released.
- The theme of this edition: Ups & Downs
Implement at least 5 different drops or jumps into your map.
- Definition for a drop: The car lands at least one block lower that the inital position while moving at least 2 blocks forward or it is at least 0.3 seconds in the air and landing at least one block lower than the initial position.
- Definition for a jump: The car lands at least one block higher that the inital position while moving at least 2 blocks forward or it is at least 0.3 seconds in the air and landing at least one block higher than the initial position.
- If one of those two conditions is fullfilled, the jump / drop is legit.
- Jumps / Drops like this are ok, it doesn't have to be 100% one block
- Definition for "different": At least one of these factors have to be different:
- Places where the car lifts of & touches the ground - Distance / Angle
- Used Block where the car lifts of
- Used Block where the car touches the ground again

PS: I know that the name is not creative or anything like that - everyone who knows me and how I name my maps is familiar with my suprising lack of skill when it comes to naming things. I'm open to suggestions for improvements regarding it
