Suggestion: Water races

17.4k Geekpride  8.2 years ago

The ability to make things float has been in SimplePlanes for a while, and we now have races for ground vehicles on land. Why not combine the two and create some water races?

Possible locations:
- Around Yeager airport, passing under the bridge.
- Same location as the Shark Tooth air race, but down on the water.
- Around Bandit airport, passing under the bridge.
- A loop around Wright Isles North Runway island
- Out of the undermountain dock on Snowstone and along the river
- A loop around Sky Park City island
- Island hopping between some of the minor islands
- An open water race, with the course just defined by the rings

Other possibilities could be to change the terrain slightly to make a course have a ramp in it, making the boats jump, or having a course go across land, requiring the creation of an amphibious vehicle.

    @Clawsome That is an issue, and I get that mobile users can feel left out, but it hasn't stopped there being air and ground races on Maywar. This would be no different.

    Problem is, besides the airport islands, mobile doesn't have any of the "minor islands"

    Oh god. I don't even want to imagine the nightmares that would come with trying to make boats AI-friendly.

    amphibious races would be awesome, just use the sandsrift race, i tested it on my tank, but it can no longer continue once in the water u.u
