They're fun to mess around with

They're also funny when Bots drive vehicles

No. I've always thought I was alone on liking the physics how they are. :o

they're only funny when the situation calls for it

like i find it funny when i want it to be funny, and other times i find it annoying and a stupid bug

They suck because you can't have legitimate racing servers with them. Filipe made that awesome racecar for me and I was planning to have racing events with it but can't because the collision physics forget it up big time. I'm pretty sure there has yet to be a successful racing mod/vehicle/server.

filipe's bot karts kinda worked

But the problem with bot vehicles is that it makes the racing boring and without challenge, but yeah there is no physics glitches to worry about like that.

the physics aren't terrible if you're good at avoiding other vehicles and anything other than modterrain. it adds another challenge to racing - knowing how to not glitch on ramps and stuff

They're very amusing when they're not constantly loving up.

Id say that races aren't fun when they're more about surviving than racing.
This is also why I am still adamant in adding racing items to Speedcart.

I like the current Blockland physics. They're wacky and fun.
However I wouldn't mind just a few fixes with them.

A couple months ago I was playing Speed Kart on Badspot's server with Rotondo, And we both collided while in mid-air.
What happened next is our cars got stuck inside of each other and just sat there floating for the entire round.
We just hopped out of the cars and just sat there staring at them for a few minutes.

I like vehicle physics, but not in this game.

They're funny at times, but in other situations it can stop being funny very quickly if it continues.


I'm thinking that if the physics are ever fixed so they don't spaz the forget out whenever you hit something, there should still be some degree of randomness to collisions - you could hit the wall and not bounce at all, or you could hit it and get bonked away and flipped over, the former being more common.
