[ROCKET RACING] Drifting & General Issues

Summary

The ported Creative Rocket Racing Vehicle behaves very different compared to the original Rocket Racing vehicle.

Bugs & Inconsistencies

  • The vehicle can very easily glitch through geometry - which I assume is due to its lower update frequency (30 Hz) compared to its original one (60 Hz).
    This is particularly noticeable on the Rocket Racing Track and during high speeds.
  • The current drifting doesn’t match the original’s drifting behavior. The friction appears to be reduced, resulting in extremely slippery drifting.
  • Performing a magnet flip while drifting slows down the vehicle.

Missing Stuff

  • Currently there is no way to make an Out-Of-Bounds Tube like there used to be
  • The original Rocket Racing Checkpoint device is not available
  • Having a better Vehicle API would be great, e.g. being able to access speed, boost, etc.
