Talk:The Plain of Atlantis

Thank you very much

Four and a half years ago, Nintendo closed its WFC doors. And yet authors always make us, the community, happy with such beautiful tracks that still work. The last surprising ones were the tracks New Moon Manor, The Plain of Atlantis and Warp Pipe Island. Many thanks to you, Jiyuu, for your great tracks! Keep it up!!

Glitch report

Greetings. We tested the track yesterday and found some issues that you should be aware of.

• On the part with the trickable pillars on the road, one pillar has a wall effect: video
• If you are having a mini-turbo before the entrance of the cave, or a fast vehicle, you hit the ceiling sometimes: video
• The last cannon sometimes sends players the wrong way around, a 180 degree spin: video
• Throwable items in a majority of the track disappear immediately. This problem occurs, when a track is too big and the item is thrown in an area with negative measurement values (it's hard to explain for me, I had the same problem in Cyberstate and Wiimm fixed it for me).
• Position Jump Bug in the spiral before the cave and also in the ice cave/crystal section.
• The ice cave is nearly unplayable for some outside-drifters. Maybe make it normal road instead of slippery?

About item bug and positions

I'm sorry to say this (please don't kill the carrier): Items work online only, if they are dropped/thrown in the position range from -131071 to +131071 for all 3 axis (and y must be >0; and never tested larger y). This is because of the limited online protocol (131072 == 2^17, and the exponent of this number is too large).

The x-coordinate are OK, but the y coordinates (for ITPT) are 17850 .. 175955 and the z coordinates are -152526 .. 196184. This can't be fixed by simply shifting the track into other coordinates. A re-design is necessary (Really a pity!!).
