Title: [RACING] Knockout races
Post by: Witchfynde on September 02, 2010, 04:32:37 pm
Now that we have races that count by laps, why not a knockout race? Say, the race is 8 laps. After one lap is one eighth of the whole field is eliminated from the race, after lap two another eighth of the field is eliminated and so on, untill the race is over. Would be pretty interesting.

Sounds cool, but it would be hard to have an exact winner, since we have alot of players and there might not be enough laps. For this to work, when building the race we should just have to build one lap, and it gets multiplied by the amount of players. But then, what if we have 91 players? 91 laps is too much. To solve this:

0-3 players: Mode never appears on vote list.
4-25 players: 5 people eliminated every lap.
26-50 players: 10 people eliminated every lap.
50-70 players: 15 people eliminated every lap.
71-91 players: 20 people eliminated every lap.

This way, the maximum amount of laps possible is just 5.

Lol I must not be able to read. The real system that he mentioned is much better, but it could still be bugged. What happens if the ammount of players can't divide by however many laps there is?

BUMP!

Seems good, suppose lock the other players in /TV while the race finishes would be cool enough.

guess it doesnt need be done with laps.
Even in other kind of races it is possible.
Just put a time counter,and when this time come to 0,the last person is eliminated.
Also it can be done with the cps.For example,for each 5 cps,the last player is eliminated.Would be cool :).

i have idea for this mode

player who is knocked out is spawned in same world in police car or infernus with police lights and can block players (blocking allowed in this mode but not driving backwards)

something like NFS Most Wanted

Bumping again.

I'm sure a formula can be made so that the number of people eliminated per lap is relative to the amount of people in the server.
In the same way, the amount of people eliminated as the race goes on must decrease.

Can this be done?
