New rally league

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,780 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 From next season (2063), a new 'Circuit of Evan' stock-car rally league will be run, in addition to the two existing 'Circuit of Evan' Deathrallys. Note: the new league will be a point-to-point rally, not a point-to-point deathrally. It will use stock vehicles, not player-supplied ones. Note 2: Morgan is being added to the schedule, so the three 'Circuit of Evan' leagues will now be 9 weeks long, not 8. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 7, 2012, 5:38 pm Last edited May 7, 2012, 6:00 pm by *sam*

Set up in the same way, yes. It's actually two contests to pick from each week though, not four. Also- Morgan is being added to the schedule, so the three 'Circuit of Evan' leagues will now be 9 weeks long, not 8. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 7, 2012, 5:59 pm Last edited May 7, 2012, 5:59 pm by *sam*

*Snipe* Renshai Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Rule Council Posts: 581 Joined: Aug 31, 2009 Awesome Sam - thanks for getting this implemented so soon. Think it is a great idea and a way to have a good sized racing league throughout Evan. This also gives yet another reason for people to start spreading their gangers out. Even tho I am partial to making my own cars, having stock cars makes it even more accessible for all players that can foot a driver. Plus it evens out the race more and keeps us closer together - which makes any rally great. I expect the numbers of players playing and staying competitive will be high. Thanks again - great addition. ......................... vet wv gateautumn sssc santa1 raceL1 deathrceL1 marshal pvp2 zom combatL1 pvp52,6,2 Posted May 7, 2012, 9:16 pm

Any chance this means players will be able to setup Rallys for town events like they can races, deathraces and combats?

Actually it is a MUST to not use gates maps for race rallys - as some get locked up in town walls...etc requiring walls destroyed. Yeah, this can be troublesome. They have also been the center point to some of these events that I've seen, and quite fun, but some of them get near ridiculous, sliding down clifs to land on a 5m square area, coming to full stop not to fall into an oil pit; climbing stuff till your stupid in the face; and yeah, getting stuck in the corner between building and cliff for plentyseven turns. I'd really like to see other maps used, if thats possible. A different map around that town each year? Theres just so much good terrain out there to use or these events. Some of the lost trail maps would be great, Oil Slick, Southern Plateau, Road to Elms, P2D, dare I say chaos canyon, Spooky,... now theres one that would be great. ......................... marshal vet wv pvp4 zom cont pvp32,12,1 Posted May 8, 2012, 2:04 am

Most wilderness maps would be way better for rallies than gate maps. Pretty, Pretty, PRETTY PLEASE!? The main reason gates maps are always used is that they're close enough to town to not require any travel. These are fundamentally "town events" after all. Now, obviously in terms of code it wouldn't be hard to break this rule and have "town races" way out in the wilderness, but it's a bit of a stretch in terms of believability, if you get me? ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 8, 2012, 12:04 pm

Serephe Collision Force Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 3,496 Joined: Dec 9, 2007 Sam, I understand your reasoning, but surely there'd be areas of the "wilderness" close enough to town to race in without being literally 500m away -- the racetracks our events are on are obviously not in town, nor within the town map, so it's reasonable to assume that there would be terrain within the town that would be fairly safe, right? Honestly I'd just like to be able to win because I raced well, or I shot well, rather than because someone crashed into one of the SS fences of death, or fell off Texan into the oil. Edit: That said, some of my favorite races have involved screaming through the streets of SS at 150mph. ......................... vet wv paintladder ww0,3,0 Posted May 8, 2012, 12:11 pm Last edited May 8, 2012, 12:16 pm by Serephe
