Vehicle swap in Mario Kart
« on: April 30, 2012, 03:02:18 pm »
Well first of all, when you grab a pickup and it says you have a sanchez or a cheetah, press fire and you get trown out of your kart and then a sanchez or cheetah spawns, at the same speed you were in the kart,  for you to drive for a short while.
Then when your sanchez/cheetah time runs out said vehicle disappears and you get put back into a kart only this time you completely stop and loose your speed.

I don't know if thats how the race is meant to be or not but I think it'd be better if you didn't loose your speed gained with sanchez/cheetah when you swap back to a kart.


Second, weird finding imo...

I was riding a sanchez (obtained from pickup) and when the sanchez time was almost over I hit some obstacle and caused me to spin and fall off the bike. When I was off the bike time ran out and I got put into a kart again leaving the sanchez on the track and didn't disappear.

I first thought this could be abused, getting off the kart and grab the sanchez, but since you cannot get off the the kart, well...

Anyway that's my weird finding.
I was in the right, yes absolutely in the right. I certainly was in the right... I dunno I was really drunk at the time...

the 2nd issue is fixed by not allowing to exit, but first one is due to buggy MTA mode, which is hard to balance between good swap and no crashes.
