How can I adjust starting positions at checkpoints? | Forums

I'm building a multiplayer track witch has 1 curve in the middle to the left. After the curve the player in the inside lane always has the best position when reappearing. The player on the outside lane always starts last. The distance between the starting positions is really big too. This gives the player on the inside even more advantage above the others. Is there a way to correct this? It would have been better if the editor did the opposite of what it's doing now. Please let me know how to correct this.

Thanks

The checkpoint is placing them in the same relative position. If you only have one curve the inside player does have a shorter track so is obviously at an advantage. (you can only change the vertical position of the checkpoints respawns)

Either add a second curve of equal size or dont curve your supercross tracks, sorry.

Thanks for the quick reply. I already finished the track when the problem started to arise. I tried adding another curve to the track but it's not as easy as you would think to add a curve afterwards. The lines bend of the the left after the ending of the track when I try to place the finish more to the right to even out distance between the left and right line. The first (problem-) curve is just before the middle of the track and moving a giant lake with burning buildings and UFO's and placing them at the same spot is nearly impossible. Certain objects will automatically be placed to different positions because they don't fit in the new area. I think I'll be putting it online though for now. Driving underwater and on the water is to cool not to share

But if you have any useful tips on this one a would be grateful

Thanks!

I posted the track under the name Underwaterworld B.C. and noticed that it crashes when you play it via My Tracks. However when I play it via multiplayer no problems occur. What's going on? I have a slim xbox. I also noticed the xbox crashes sometimes after loading a track in the editor. Sometimes when I want to continue working on the track it crashes when I press A after opening the objects menu. Saving the the track under a different name solves the problem till the next crash but that only happens after opening a previously saved track.

The track editor ALWAYS adjusts for curves in supercross tracks. You will not have any problems as the track length is always the same.
