Autocross Idea - Venom - 2014-12-16 18:50

So, I dont know where I should start, but I wanna tell you good news. I found a way to connect the Autocross area with drag strip via layout edit, making the road area MUCH larger than just autocross.

This GIF shows you the layout as I have it right now:

Everything you can see is drivable, with little to no problem. The only main problem is that when going from ramp to other surfaces, you need to make sure your suspension is high, else your car will not drive over transitions at ends of ramps.

With this we could bring back Autocross map, as there is much more drivable area than just the Autocross itself.

Other than that, I want to say that my layout is only a fraction of all the drivable area and a lot of new roads could be built.

I think it would bring more variation to environments so why not add Autocross back.

New idea: What if server 2 would host Autocross every couple of weeks ? I dont see a problem with that as most of the time server 2 has 0 - 10 players

RE: Autocross Idea - Toni - 2014-12-16 18:51

Autocross has a Max amount of 16 cars at the track at once, so i dont think this is neccessary.

RE: Autocross Idea - Luke - 2014-12-16 19:00

It would be a nightmare considering the popularity in TC and as Toni said, it only holds up 16 cars on the track. The driving will be glitchy, loads of accidents, impractical (small roads).

Nice idea, unfortunately, I can't see it getting anywhere at all.

Pretty much this. Nice idea though and seems like you used quite a bit of time to do this, unfortunately Autocross can't be used.

RE: Autocross Idea - Otava - 2014-12-16 19:42

I would like to get this but 16 players and accidents but 1 day per few months would be really nice

RE: Autocross Idea - Venom - 2014-12-16 20:32

Oh I didnt know Autocross holds max only 16 players.. Well how about if allways after some period of time (like 4-8 weeks) Autocross would be hosted on server 2, while server 1 would have different map ?

Yep, spent about 3 hours on all the planning and experimenting.

RE: Autocross Idea - Luke - 2014-12-16 21:50

[TC] Have had many years to experiment with the best format to host the servers. I think they are pretty settled with Two 32 slot servers on the same rotation of tracks (This is best money wise and seems to be best by popularity, both servers can be regularly filled and even a 3rd on certain events like gumball)

RE: Autocross Idea - RedJohn - 2014-12-16 21:53

Would be nice for an event (fun night) though Thumbup

RE: Autocross Idea - Venom - 2015-03-29 09:18

I'm bumping this because of the newest update which allows 40 people to spawn on this track Smile. As well, because we have the new objects such as ramp, we could use most of the autocross area.

RE: Autocross Idea - Olli - 2015-03-29 09:48

Newest Update Wrote:Increased AU Autocross grid from 16 to 20.

Even though the amount of cars allowed on Autocross got increased, I'm still against the original idea.

But just why ? We could cruise on another map, so it brings more variation. Just in case you dont know, we can add another 20 spawnpoints.

RE: Autocross Idea - Borja - 2015-03-29 10:39

Becuase its only 20

RE: Autocross Idea - Luke - 2015-03-29 10:47

Autocross was increased from 16 cars to 24. Not 40 I'm afraid.

RE: Autocross Idea - Venom - 2015-03-29 11:28

See now eh ?

RE: Autocross Idea - Luke - 2015-03-29 11:29

Ohh, that's a new post I haven't gotten up to date with then Biggrin

Ignore my comment.

RE: Autocross Idea - Otava - 2015-04-06 19:49

Now it could be much better idea with the new update, just would need the map again. I suggest now this idea.

RE: Autocross Idea - Sebas - 2015-04-07 05:55

Still don't see how "citydriving-eske" a car-park and drag strip could become.

No from me.

RE: Autocross Idea - Toni - 2015-04-07 09:11

no thanks, too small area to buid a good lyt.
