I made a catapult with an explosive that will catch it too. GT: Lewkish Map: Catch A Pult In your Fr say you're from redlynx

nice idea! All shold be actually doable.

Shall we arrange official competition around this theme. what people think? Flags and hoodies for winners and videos to youtube.

prehaps a small comp like this once every couple of weeks to make some clever contraption would be a fun idea. winner is the one with the most elegant + reliable solution.

not all of them have to be with trials hoodies + flags for the winner. it could be a comp out every week, but only once a month for prizes.

(just throwing ideas out here)

Idea equals epic. I'll have to try the conveyor since nobody else has seem to look into it. But, no lie, I'm working on a track called Waterwork and it has this one trick. Which involves a lot of force so you can sometimes die on impact or land on this object sticking out at an angle on your front tire killing you. Sometimes the bike explodes and the body is stretched out (Glitch). One time the bike got knocked awkwardly somehow and ended up turning around (Driving the wrong way). I ended up falling over when I reached the bottom so I didn't really get to test it but I wonder if there is something to get this to happen constantly.

there is a way to do this, it involves an air conditioning unit and a trigger

Everyone loves to tackle a challenge on their bikes, but I thought it would be fun to pose some challenges to the level editors here. So the question for you is: Can you build it?

Here are a few challenges I thought up. Your name in lights for the first and/or most elegant builds to feature any of the below challenges. If anyone has any more ideas for challenges to include, let me know, and I'll keep the list updated. If not, well maybe this thread will die a nice quiet death...

Can You Build It?

1. A catapult that launches any explosive long-distance without the explosive going off until it lands.
2. A catching device that will catch a falling (or launched?) explosive, without it going off when caught.
3. Combination of the two above for extra credit
4. A working Ferris wheel that will take the rider fully around a circle on its own power Winner: katamariUK (Track = "Carnival")
5. A converyor belt suitable for carrying your rider forward or backward

Disclaimer: I don't know how many of these (if any) are actually possible.

so do i win then?

so do i win then?

I call that a win on the long distance launch pad!
Next job is to make it land on the rider if you go too slow!

Hey. i think ive got the conveyor belt down. it doest sightly launch you but moves the player forward on its own. it only pulls them a short distance as i made the belt short and cba to make an extremly long one as it takes some effort to make. If anyone wants to try it out send a F/R to IL ii O N make sure to include "Redlynx" in your message or I may not accept you. The track is called "Kimito" and if you could also record to get a video up on this forum as i cant take videos lol.

Hope you like it. (P.S First post woot )

Edit: The conveyor belt seems to be glitchy when actually playing the track. if so just keep hitting B until it works i dont know the problem here hmm. well maybe this is the foundation. if someone else can improve on it just give me credit for the original idea

Edit2: Just Deleted the track while mass deleting all the spam tracks i had. will make another one i notify you when its up
