Obstacle

The Obstacle Game Mode has been moved into its own Title Pack!



Rules
- Finish the obstacle course as fast as possible.
- To validate a race you must touch the finish after going through all the checkpoints.
- You can start over and improve your time as often as you want.
- The player with the best time at the end of the map wins.

- Press the respawn button (standard: Backspace) or die to respawn at the last reached checkpoint.
- Press respawn again (in the spawn) to restart from the beginning.

- Press F3 if you're ready for the next map (Press F3 again to change your decision).
- Press F4 to disable/enable respawning at checkpoints.
- Click on a player on the scoreboard to spectate him/her. (Click on him/her or on yourself to play again.)

Obstacle is awesome! Wooo go Steffen!!!

Tried it, very nice indeed. I think this mode was needed as it is perfect for parkour maps. A good thing would be to get some more accessible maps for beginners, in my opinion.

Anyway, keep it up.

Make two shoot variants: Shoot/NoShoot
Make two player variants: FFA/Team (would require blue/red offzones and blue/red checks)
Make two race variants: NoCircuit/Circuit (you know, laps)
Means you'll get these combinations:
FFA Shoot NoCircuit
FFA NoShoot NoCircuit
FFA Shoot Circuit
FFA NoShoot Circuit
Team Shoot NoCircuit
Team NoShoot NoCircuit
Team Shoot Circuit
Team NoShoot Circuit
8 versions of one mode!!! Would be very fine, if it was done...
Thanks for reading,

this. after trying it now, I won't join Obstacle/TA servers ever again.

I just released Obstacle Version 1.3

it includes the option for server owners to modify the default restart button AND offers each player the option to modify the restart key by himself.

(Dropbox link has the new file! while maniapark needs about 24h to update the file -.-)

Hi !
I downloaded your game mode, and I have a problem with the checkpoints... They do not work... I have 9 CP on my map, with one goal... each CP goes with a CPspawn but the checkpoints just act like normal blocks... could you help me please?

I am having difficulty setting up an obstacle map. I have placed the Obstacle.Script.txt file in My Documents/ManiaPlanet/Scripts/Modes/Shootmania and the ObstacleArena.Script.txt file is in My Documents/ManiaPlanet/Scripts/MapTypes/Shootmania. I am able to select TimeAttackArena as my maptype, but I can't seem to find a way to assign spawn other than the first one to CPSpawns. Selecting a spawn simply tells me that "This anchor is not editable." I also don't understand how to select the order of the checkpoints. Can anyone advise?

hey slugish,
thanks for your interest in obstacle
you will need to select ObstacleArena as map type (click on the text showing the current map type in the top left corner and click on "select from file" in the opened dialog, in the next step you should be able to pick ObstacleArena.Script.txt)

Wow... I must be stupid. I was overlooking the obstaclearena file and was using time attack! Thanks for the info!
