Blooming trees, smoother banks and sharper bots


Trees now flower with real shapes, banked hairpins ease through their turns, and bots race with a planner that sees traffic and dropped traps while hard bots keep their tight line.

Improvements

  • Species-specific tree flowers: notro, toromiro, espino and tamarugo flowers and pendant copihue bells replace the solid colored balls. Fruit and grapes are unchanged.
  • Bots plan around the whole road: a single planner now decides where each bot drives, taking neighbouring cars and dropped Brick Walls and mines into account. Easy, normal and hard bots again follow their own racing lines, and hard bots hug the apex.
  • Smoother Jammer bursts: crowded Jammer bursts cause fewer frame hitches.

Fixes

  • Banked hairpins: automatic banking no longer swaps the raised edge abruptly between the two curve reversals of a compound turn.

Bot behaviour was measured in simulated races rather than on every track and setup, and some tracks, such as Circuit with eight powered cars, can be slower than before. Performance changes do not guarantee a particular frame rate on every device.
