Here are some things that are bugs glitched or some suggestions that will make MKPC easier to use, or make MKPC better.

1. Track builder problems:
Track builder has a bit of problems that I really want fixed. All of them are in Complete Mode. There's nothing really wrong with quick mode to me to be honest. Anyway with that out of the way its time to get to the ACTUAL topic. First off is Checkpoints. When I first used checkpoints I thought this was gonna be the easiest part of the track. But turns out, Its not. When I put the checkpoint on the starting line you immediately finish the race. Its really weird. And the more checkpoints you make the more laps there are. (I think) Its really hard to do that and that's why I always use quick mode instead of Complete Mode. I don't get it when you do the placements it should know that when your racing and you pass the placements, your in another lap. I hope this happens.

2. Rails: There's not that much I have to say about this but its the fact that when you get on the rail and when you hop off it kind of sends you flying. I don't know if I'm tripping or not but its alright.

3. Servers

One thing I HATE and don't love to see is that new players that barely have any experience get put in the room with players like me, @Proudster, @Nodac64, and more high ranked players. I really want you guys to fix this problem because I want a fun and fair experience for new and not new players in this game. I just really want this website to be the best and popular because its really not that popular in the first place.

3. Unnecessary topics

I HATE seeing unnecessary topics on the forum page. I really hate it. It just fills the forum page with slop no one needs to answer.  Topics like "Space for anything" NEEDS to get deleted right away. People really needs to stop doing that. Every topic does not have to be like an actual topic like @-GamerGuy-'s topic of 'What your favorite item says about you' Don't mind those. I just want to get rid of slop and other things in MKPC.

Anyways that's it. Hope you listen to some of these.

SFA isn't bad, its meant to be a place were you can send messages that aren't good enough for a whole topic. although yea most stuff in the other part is usually fine, cause there Various Discussions. (also thx for putting my topic as an example of one you think is fine :))

Checkpoints work perfectly well whenever I use them. I'd recommend asking a more experienced track maker how they work and using that to help improve the experience.

It's a new feature, I imagine if any more work would be done on it, said work would happen soon. I think that it's an intended mechanic, however, and I find it quite fun.

The playerbase is already so small that lobbies rarely get up to 8 players. Surely splitting the lobbies would just lead to less people playing together, overall decreasing player population as they are unable to find a game. Besides, how would this be fixed? Based on vr, people would just smurf to make themselves seem good, based on choosing low level lobbies or high level, they will either choose high level and get destroyed or the previous issue would occur.

Yes, the topic specifically made by mods so that unnecessary topics don't appear as consistently is so unnecessary and should be removed. Seems kind of counter-productive to me.

Reading the Checkpoint tutorial could help, there are some key informations to take into account when making checkpoints:
- The 1st placed checkpoint will ALWAYS be the one that changes laps.
- The number of laps doesn't depend on the number of Checkpoints, there is directly an option that allows you to just change the lap count to whatever you want.
- Optional Checkpoints are checkpoints that the player doesn't need to cross in order to finish a lap. However, because he didn't cross it and others behind might have did, he may be placed a bit lower while reaching the next mandatory checkpoint.

Note: Checkpoints shouldn't be able to be missed, ALWAYS make sure that no Checkpoints are skippable, verify tight places or tight corners! We never know what kind of player might play on your track after all ;)

There are 2 ways to trick while riding a rail:
- Normal Tricks: These tricks happen when you press your drift/hop/trick key without pressing any directional key.
- Side tricks: These tricks happen when you press your drift/hop/trick key WHILE pressing one of your directional keys.
Note: The longer you press the directional key in question, the further to the side you will be ejected.

It is unfathomably rare to 12+ players in Worldwide Online at the same time. When it happens, a second server is created.
But because it is so rare and because Worldwide Online doesn't happen everyday, the game has no choice but to put every player in the same room, no matter the skill gap from one player to another.
Without this, we would always be playing with 2 or 3 players which would make races terribly boring.

This isn't the first "Space for anything" topic. There has been 3 or 4 SFA topics actually, and every single time one was locked or deleted, we faced the SAME EXACT problem: useless topics.
The wave of useless topics that was created every day was so unbearable to moderate that it became impossible for moderators to handle every dramas and problems happening in so many different topics.
I hope this can make you understand better the purpose of SFA, I also don't like this topic but the problem isn't the topic itself, but rather the MKPC Forum Community.
