ModNation Racers General Discussion

[fuzzyclutter]

its not really your fault , you didnt intend it for hotlap . the system is much more finicky with hotlaps and time trials than with race mode , i confirmed this by playing your track in quick race vs time trial . never did get an off track in race mode , however it was a different story in time trial. i did take the time to open it up in the editor and managed to implement a fix . i fixed it by widening the erased part significantly and widening the fence part closest to the crane (right where the wooden bridge continues again and one section beyond ), having to move the crane slightly to the left more . i didnt publish and dont intend to , hopefully it helps , but anyway at least we know now that the off track system is more picky in time trial and hotlap than race right ?

It'd be great if we could update our published content, period. It sucks having to tear down the old, with all of its records, to put an updated version of pretty much the same thing up. I do agree, though, that tracks should be totally locked up when they're in an official circulation. Which wouldn't help you now, but when you get to doing those tweaks you want to do, you'd be able to preserve your stats for that track.

heres the issue ,people have already downloaded and have the first version saved on their hard drive why should the second version get those same stats ... if you think about .. one could glitch download stats by just remixing the same track ,over and over .

As many of you have seen, I've got a track in the hotlap for today. It's got a significant glitch which numerous people have encountered. Unfortunately, I've got no way to fix this for the hotlap. This has also happened with past tracks. I get feedback on them, and then can't do anything about it. I want to keep those downloads I got, ya know?

I think we should have a tool that lets us republish a track, but have it keep the same stats the old one had. This way, I could go back and fix my tracks. I think this could be something that would make a significant change. So if anyone from UFG is reading this... Please take it in mind. It's one of the few problems I have with this game. (As I rarely go online)

Sorry it took so long for me to reply anyway.  I'll notify everyone a day or two before so changes can be made.

Unfortunately that doesn't solve the track stats issue- but otherwise that sounds like a reasonable fix, Russell.  Then creators can double check for polish.
