Pretty hard game though. The only way I managed to do it was just copying what the computer did and then not creeping to a stop like they did. Maybe if there was some clue for the player when they were getting close so they can still go fast but aren't just playing blind?"},{"author_name":"broiledvictory","author_uid":"39212","time":"Dec 16, 2015 @ 10:17pm","epoch":1450303920,"text":"The stop almost seems to require you to just copy the AI or to go just slightly faster than it.

Surely if you slammed on the brakes they'd come to a quicker stop? :) Loads of fun in two player, very hard, but this is a drag racing game right?"},{"author_name":"PKCat","author_uid":"64151","time":"Dec 31, 2015 @ 11:02am","epoch":1451559420,"text":"Thanks for all your comments. Funny it came out that it requires a different approach in sp\/mp (I will leave the second one for You to figure it out AND share in comments ;) ), as this was never a point in this project. Still, I think you're all right about the AI and on-road hints, but that will have to wait until I finish my exams..."},{"author_name":"zenmumbler","author_uid":"17143","time":"Dec 31, 2015 @ 1:58pm","epoch":1451569980,"text":"Don't include the PDB files in your distribution as they're just debug info in and this case take up &gt;50% of the download.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Game idea is good but deceleration is very slow and there is no cue other than the AI slowing down that you need to stop.
