What does that mean? PLATFORM is a "custom mode" which changes a racing game into a "parkour/steeple" game. Great inspiration and I can imagine something like this done for ShootMania (instead of "kill everyone", it would be "get to the other end in the least amount of time"), but in order to be able to script something like that, I need to be able to study and understand how PLATFORM is made. So, where's the script? Where is the documentation?
For the first case, you haven't search very long, there is a link to the Platform sources on the page presentation:
http://shootmania.com/platform (direct link:
http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... 21&t=28626)
For the second case, we have planned to communicate about the Maniaplanet documentation next week (the documentation has been revamp this summer but waited September to talk about it).
You can find it at this address:
http://doc.maniaplanet.com
You should everything to learn to code in ManiaScript and many others things. The weak points of this documentation for now is the Map Editor and the MediaTracker but it'll be fixed later

Really cool! I just started doing something for the mediatracker part (rendering)
