BTTF Forever 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) The car can go faster than 88 too; so it's a bad idea to limit it solely to it. you dont get it do you.... the cars speed DOES NOT change, it is simply an ILLUSION of the SPEEDOMETER. E.G. when you are actually going 80 mph, your speedometer is reading 88, and as your cars speed heads from 80 to 88, the speedo does not go up, if the cars speed drops below 80 (it will blow up...LOL Jokes) the speedo starts droping below 88, but the speedo will never go over 88...get it?...got it?....GOOD. I don't see how that improves things. You'll run into people going 87 88! *hits wall* what th- *boom* I WAS AT 88 MOTHER f***ing s**t *rage shut down*. Well i guess your gonna have to be even more skilled when timing the temporal displacement jump before you hit something! , as i said before, making these speedo changes does not change the cars performance in any way, it just gives the illusion through the speedo that the effects start at a higher speed thats all, at full acceleration, the Time Machine takes approx. 3 and a bit seconds to time travel if you start timing when the effects start, so when the effects start, start from 0 and count to 3, and by then you've time traveled. besides stopping the speedo at 88 takes coding space, aka coding space needs saving. You cant be serious???.... it cant take up that much coding space, its probably just a tiny code like: IF SPEEDMULTI >= 88 THEN SHOW SPEEDO = 88 (which is saying if the speed of the cars MULTIPLYER, NOT the car speed itself, is bigger or equal to 88, then show 88 on the speedo, BTW this is definatly not an actual code you use in SCM, i am trying to prove a point of how little coding space it uses, i'm sure you would agree right?)

Ziero 4 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 There you go. You are in fact very correct in your example, BTTF Forever. I myself have done a similar code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And to Grim Reaper....i mean this with the greatest respect....HAHAHA!!! I WAS RIGHT!!!! AND YOU WERE WRONG!!!!... NA LOL Jokes, its all good.

bluespace88 9 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 People need to stop using "it saves coding space" as an excuse. Something tiny as this doesn't matter. The really big stuff is what matters, like entirely new features, not mods of current ones. And if you want even more rage wondering when you'll time travel, try it on sand. Might be stuck at 88 for quite a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

♠Grim♂ Reaper 1666◙ 17 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 besides people like it as is so i say it stays and do you really want new things to slow down the release of 0.2f? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BTTF Forever 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 i'm just saying it would be a good idea thats all, even if it wasnt official, but i guess your right, it can stay the way it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel 1 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 the cars speed DOES NOT change, it is simply an ILLUSION of the SPEEDOMETER. If so, can the code be made for the speedo to go ABOVE 88 when the time circuits are off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
♠Grim♂ Reaper 1666◙ 17 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 stop suggesting ideas that take up small amounts of space, some other more important code might need that space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caio492 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 So why did you have make a place for requests and all the requests we have done the reply was 'no' or 'it takes much coding space' or 'it will slow down the release of 0.2f' (because the release of 0.2f is already slowed down becuase it have taked more than a year) please sorry guys I have to tell that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RG 1 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 It's taken more than 2 years, if you count starting with the release of 0.2e... I guess the reason why most of the answers are negative is because there's nothing much left to suggest that hasn't been figured out already Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Black Swordsman 1 Report post Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) The whole idea makes no sense. The Delorean is still a functioning sports car, you immediately time travel in game once you hit 88, and if the car is empty, you glow, but don't jump. Why does THAT need to stop at 88? It's completely pointless in every sense. Edited January 11, 2011 by The Black Swordsman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, most of them are the circlejerking type of requests on stuff thats already in but people want to change it. I however, have not seen a good requests since the pre-0.2d days.

Mr.Kocher 1 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 Well blue, with all respect to you guys, I'm sure I had a good request about the hover boards floating on water. I came up with a code(not sure if it'll work) that may change the thought of the idea of floating on water with a hover board but still falling in with out it. I kinda think you guys ignored it, BUT then again I don't blame you guys due to my pointless and stupid topics in the past. In case you guys haven't looked at it please check here: http://www.bttfhillvalley.co.uk/forum/inde...c=3389&st=0 It actually has a point this time, I'm sure.

bluespace88 9 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 Its not a good request. Its an ok request. I've actually seen it before. You won't believe how many requests are repeats of old ones. Never bothered with it because the fix was a handling line change. I believe for bikes, it is at 99, but just change it to like 5 and it'll float. Such a trivial thing is not that good of a request, and it does not impact gameplay much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Kocher 1 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 Your right, but the only reason I came up with(or attempted to) a code was because I was told you can't make it float. I think it was archer who told me this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
