Missing stuff in ManiaScript

MScript is so so so small featured :(

1.) Can't remove blocks on the fly

---I'd like to create a script that would display only the 5 nearest blocks - probably it could work on the terrain only now, but that's no fun :(

2.) Can't access audio or screen color shader


---I'd love to make an effect that would make the screen go nuts based on the amount of bass in the music playing :roflol:

3.) Can't alter graphics overall


---Can't make epic RPGs :cry: Would love to make some 'death fog' too

4.) Can't modify physics


---Even though promised in the future, can't make blocks icy the second time you pass them etc.

5.) Can't apply scripts onto blocks


---Would love to make noob routes/pro routes based on time/speed

And that's just 1/100th of what you could do, instead just some boring stuff :9

FX:Colors
On "Near" you keep the settings
On "Far" you make it brighter, have less contrast and less saturation and then change the distance depending on where you want it.

I solved 20% of your problems! A little thank you would be okay, no?

It wasn't solved because you still can not access the audio channel to alter it.

And problem 6.) metoxys can't mass-import ghosts

I could mass-import ghosts on low settings.
I opened a replay containing only 1 ghost, I set the time values and made the cam there and removed the single ghost.
Then I selected free cam and moved it very far from the track so I dont see anything. Then I began importing 1104 replays while still having a nice frame rate. The game crashs every time I open it with good settings but now I took minimum settings again and I could open it. Ingame I made the graphic settings very high again after having the replay open and now I am already rendering the first bit of the video.
