    Re: Things you hope redlynx puts in evolution.

    Rotten first I'll say that i think having special things for only top leaderboard riders would most likely piss some people off or atleast me.

    I'd like to see:

    The ability to create tracks that multiple people can race on.This could cause some problems so I have a feeling it wont happen.

    The ability to give checkpoints physics.

    Only a few different choices of each piece of clothing.

    The ability to fill certain areas with water.This could be a relief for those like myself who like to create environments with either big areas of water or just a barrel full of water.

    The ability to put out fire with water.This is the first thing I ever tried to do when I began on the editor.Sadly I failed.

    The ability to create a track with a friend at the same time.

    And lastly,before the BIG PACK came out i heard that they were going to make an i-beam which would bend if enough weight was put on it.This would be kind of interesting to see even though its a little farfetched.

    As far as the editor goes, it would be cool if there was a massive tree object. I have a few massive tree ideas that I want to try out

    Edit: Also, the credits... you guys need to put in something I like to refer to as "funny credits 2: Electric Boogaloo"

    I hope there's an option to disable the headlight for custom maps. Every time I make a silhouette-style track, my OCD senses start tingling, and all I can see is the big static lens flare at the front of the bike

    I just got two more ideas:

    1. Sound cues. Sounds such as wind, sirens, thunder, explosions, screams, etc. would be triggered by passing through a trigger point.

    2. Ability to make an object track the rider's location/point towards him in real time. It would be an object that, when attached to a physics-enabled object, makes the object point at the rider. Your spawn location would serve as the default "pointing" orientation for objects. For example, you could make a stationary spotlight that points at the rider, have a guided missile sent after your rider, or make a weird platform that straightens out as your rider passes over it.

    I'm not sure I like this idea, people would go above and beyond with it and you wouldn't even be able to play the track if you didn't turn off your volume

    but thunder would be sick with some lightning in the background

    A four 'layer' track will indeed be quite different to a 'normal' track but given the incredible scope that user generated multiplayer maps give a game, and the fact that the multiplayer levels will have been created by RedLynx on some form of editor, I'm hard pushed to see how it won't be included.

    I could be wrong of course but if RedLynx went with a set number of multiplayer levels they would soon be overwhelmed by users crying out for more. They could supply new track packs and I think they will whatever happens, but even with the most basic and rudimentary set of objects some of the amazing trackmakers could make multiplayer levels of genius. Look at some of the tracks that were made with just 3 objects to see what I mean.

    I think the restrictions on the multiplayer editor would probaly be far greater than the singleplayer editor but even a simple set of jumps and obstacles takes on a whole new dimension when 3 other bikes are breathing down your neck all the way to the finish.

    Oh, and I dearly hope the ability to view the top 5000 players taking on the tracks will be included as well as the ability to save and view multiplayer battles.

    Imagine being able to play in and watch huge multiplayer tournaments and competitions unfolding on user created tracks.
    Mouthwatering.

    Re: Things you hope redlynx puts in evolution.

    A really handy feature would be if you could subscribe to a track builder, and if they change/upload tracks to their share then an ingame message would let you know.

    Not likely but who's with me on this for being a neat idea?
