That would of course be pssible, but the script would have to find places that can be avoided by jumping over them. I'll wait for that until I have finished the basic game.

A month later doublepost seems okay :)
After being on holiday for two weeks I've been coding again and finished an improved version of HillClimbRacing.
It features:
- dynamic car-loading from tables: this might be interesting for loading addons
- fuel (needs some improvement): You can only race as long as you have enough fuel
- a new and better car
- better vehicle physics (springs are working now)

Problems:
- post-step callbacks crash the emulator, but works fine on real hardware. Quick workaround provided
- the game runs really slow on the calc and I'm not sure what to do :(

Plans for next versions (unsorted):
- dynamically loadable maps
- control of vehicles in flight
- coins
- better fuel
- menu and GUI
- highscores
- upgrades
- driver who can break his neck

It told me I needed an update... then I realized that I had been using my 3.1 cas os on my cx lol. Switched to 3.6, tried it out, and it's definitely nice! Looking forward to future updates :D

I'll give this a try when I decide to install nLaunchy+OS 3.6. Could someone make an animated screenshot or video?

Haha I can launch my car by dropping ones on it, thus cheating... :evil: :P

Anyway, it's fast enough on TINCS, but I'm too scared to try on the handheld :(

Another Update:

New Features:
- Fancy driver who dangles around in the car and breaks his neck if you are not careful enough :)
- You can restart the game without closing the document
- Better fuel-distribution
- Vehicles can be rotated in mid-air
- Highscores which can be restored after reopening the document (They won't survive the next update though)

After some small adaptations it runs surprisingly fast and smoothly on the handheld. It still runs better in the emulator though :D

Planned for the next updates:
- Menu System
- More Tracks
- More Cars
- Coins (I'm not sure whether they should be coins or something else)
- Some Secret Features :P

Nice work!
I think the cars should definitely have higher acceleration though, because i keep getting stuck, and its impossible to make any good jumps.

I'm working on upgrades you can buy for coins collected ingame to solve that problem. But that will take some time as I'm on holiday for a week now and school starts after that, so I'll have less time to work on the game. Upgrades are the next feature I want to implement though.

The next updates will take some time as I'm on holiday for a week now and school starts after that. But the next planned feature is an upgrade system to improve your car. The upgrades will have to be bought with coins (or nethams) collected ingame. With these it will be possible to get further without getting stuck.

So do you run into Nethams (blue lobsters) in the road to gain nethams?

It's finally there: the newest version with coins and upgrades included :D
I finally chose coins, because they are a bit more handy than giant chunky lobsters and small lobsters just don't look good.


New Features:
- Upgrades, which help to get further
- Coins to buy upgrades

Plans:
- Add some more cars and tracks you can unlock (and of course a feature to unlock cars and tracks  ::) )
- adjust prices, but I'll wait for your feedback first :)
