MarioKart Mode!
« on: September 01, 2010, 09:39:19 pm »
I dunno if anyone here's ever played MarioKart, but it's ftw. You can pick up weapons, by driving through the object boxes. R might be able to code pickups that give you random bonuses, but rather than a picture, it should just say in text which bonus you have.

Here are some bonuses from MarioKart I think we could use:

Boost mushrooms: Sometimes, the weapon box gives you boost mushrooms. This lets you use one big boost of speed. On AX, when the bonus is picked up, it should let you use speedboost temporarily.

Homing turtles: When picked up, these let you fire a turtle shell at the person infront of you. When it hits them, it disrupts their car. On AX, when this bonus is used, it could send the turtle object flying at the person in front of you, and when it hits, they should automatically get /flung.

Fake object box: This lets you put an object box on the road, however it will be solid and will make you crash if you go into it. This could work on aX by making you get auto-flung when you drive into it.

Winner turtle: This sends a turtle flying to the person in the lead when used. The turtle disrupts the car when it hits. This could work like the homing turtle, except hitting the leader, not the person in front of you.

Watch this to get a better idea, pay attention to the bonus weapons:

No way, N64 was hellish fun with 4 players. Loved it.

As for the idea, awesome and has already been thought about. I'd like to see it in action because SA-MP has ability to recreate the elements from Mario Kart such as Pickups, display (Textdraws), missiles (Objects), sounds (limited GTA library, but possible).

Would be quite a lot of coding and a good few beta tests to get rid of the bug we will probably get from it.
I'll give it a go though.

Woo. Only problem I can see with the turtles is that they would have to follow the player, to do that it would mean that the player it follows must be constantly recording a path (I think). So, we'd have to have everyone recording bots in the race for it to work (I think, I'm not too good at this sort of stuff lol).

Update: This will be the next race type to test. More fun that hardcore racing, but it could be epic.

I've forgotten what Joe has suggested, I will read it again. We'll hopefully test this tomorrow.

Pickups coded:
Nitro burst (small nitro bursts)
Barrels (place them behind you)

Suggested:
Spike Strips (Blowing tyres is possible)
Other objects (cones, road barriers)
Fake Pickups (fake pickups that kill/hurt the player)

Any more suggestions people?

Hydra missiles are a little too far, remember how messy IV used to be when it had bombs?

Fav idea:

invert driving direction

Noted suggestions, anything that is too complicated or may require a timer won't be done atm. Gonna try keep the sync steady as possible.
