shortcuts to solo play multiplayer local play and models so it's possible to change the car models and go back to play the game quickly

(click for fullsize)

I´m missing a long time something like in my picture here (click it for fullsize)
Ofc this is concept art ^^ and the controller is just a sample, guess all controllers got in some way the same knob layout, so it should fit with something like that.

Would ease the config a lot and is nowadays in almost every game like this

Also on the bottom of the box could be a "save this config" button or similar, next 2 pages on the screen (Configuration and Key Assignment) should be maybe like this:
Configuration: There could be the deadzone config with sliders etc. (not finished this picture yet^^)
Key Assignment: As usual it is now (Keybinding for keyboard users) and other special function keybindings.

Sry for the bad quality of the A/B/X/Y buttons, failed a bit at the rendering of the controller

Just an idea

You just have invented the ManiaController hardware

I think it's a great idea. All games should use this model for controller configuration.

give the players a warning that the stadium environment can't be mixed, for the longest time i didn't know env mix was possible because i kept trying mix stadium with valley and canyon car and thought i was doing something wrong even though i read in this forum mixing was in the game

Since the 4 environments seem to be equal in Turbo, it would be interesting to remove that barrier also in Maniaplanet.
Technical reasons that prevent it should be reconsidered

I completely agree. I love creating track with enviro-mixing. It really opens up some creative ideas.

I think it would really be great to have true envi-mix, that is mixing not only blocks but natural features (mountains, water plans etc..) from the different environnements. It doesn't matter if there's no auto snap feature. As long as you have either mix mode (F2 mode) or better item mix mode (where you can also alter the orientation of items) you can do many very interesting tracks!

when selecting maps in local play for some reason the confirm button does nothing and selecting play with a controller is really impractical, this really need to change, it's so weird how it's easier to delete the map with a controller than to play it

Hi !

The stadium environment is in decline, I propose three ideas that might help to have new combinations of parts.
