Overview

Formula Kart Wii is a custom game mode created by CLF78 and Ismy. It changes the lap count to 50, adding random items and a plethora of other changes to make the racing more lively and chaotic. The mod is inspired by Formula One, a car racing championship.

Item Changes

Almost all the items have been edited to make the racing experience more chaotic. In addition, several brand new items have been introduced.

Item Edits

Item	Feature	Author	Information
All Items	All Items Can Land	CLF78, MrBean35000vr	Every item (with the exception of the Thunder Cloud, POW Block and Lightning) can land on the floor when dropped and be activated when a racer drives over it. Effects are identical to using the item itself.
	Disable Item Poof	CLF78	Stops the game from removing items that have been on track for too long, unless their total amount reaches the set limit.
	Dynamic Item Sizing	CLF78	Items will reflect the status of the player who dropped/fired them. If used while in a Mega Mushroom, they will remain giant, and if used while shocked they will remain tiny. For Bob-ombs and Blue Shells, this also affects their explosion radius. This does not affect the Thunder Cloud.
	Instant Item Boxes	Anarion, CLF78	Item boxes respawn instantly to allow everyone to get items.
	Max Item Limit Modifier	CLF78, Ismy	Increases the amount of items that can be in play. The new limits can be found here.
	Newbie Helper	CLF78, Seeky	If a player is lapped by first place, they will no longer pull Bananas, Shells, Fake Item Boxes or Bob-ombs. CPUs are unaffected.
	Remove Mushroom Bug	Vega	The Mushroom bug is an intentional game behaviour that results in the player receiving a Mushroom as their 16th, 18th and 20th+ item, regardless of position. This code removes said behaviour.
	Remove Mushroom Item Fallback	CLF78, Ismy	If too many of an item are in play, the game will try to give the player another item instead of defaulting to a Mushroom. This does not apply to the POW Block and Lightning, though this will grant the player Triple Mushrooms instead of a single one.
	Ultimate Item Randomizer	CLF78, Ismy	Completely randomizes item chances and gives a (weighted) random amount of the chosen item (see here for more info). It also randomizes the items spawned by objects, such as leaf piles, wooden boxes and Goombas. A few rules remain to maintain gameplay balance: Blue Shell, Lightning and POW Block timers are still respected. CPUs cannot pull Feathers and cannot pull Blue Shells and POW Blocks when in first place since they are not able to use them correctly. Lightnings, POW Blocks and Thunder Clouds cannot be dropped by objects.
Green Shell	Green Shell Speed Modifier	davidevgen	Green Shells move at 2× speed.
	Shells Never Break	CLF78	Green and Red Shells will not break until they hit a player, an object or another item. Red Shells will still break on walls if actively chasing a player.
Red Shell	Red Shell Targeting Modifier	CLF78	The Red Shells' targeting logic has been altered in the following ways: Shells will only target the player one position ahead of the shooter, rather than targeting players in higher positions indiscriminately. Shells will not skip a player if they're getting hit by another item. Shells thrown from first place will not target anyone.
Banana	Banana Damage Modifier	Skullface	Bananas make the player spin for a longer amount of time, slowing them to almost a halt.
Mushroom	No Item Use Stun	CLF78	Running into a Mushroom, Golden Mushroom or Star while getting hit will still apply their effect.
Star
Golden Mushroom
Bob-omb	Motion Sensor Bombs	Hamster35000vr	Bob-ombs only explode when someone gets close to them.
Blue Shell	Blue Shell Speed Modifier	mdmwii	Blue Shells' traveling speed has been increased to 4×. However, they can still be dodged with Mushrooms.
	Draggable Blue Shells	Luis	Blue Shells can be held behind you like Red Shells. They will explode on contact, but not hurt the player. They can be used to protect against other items being shot from behind, but if the player gets wheelie-bumped while holding a Blue Shell behind, it will fall on the ground.
Lightning	Objects Ignore Lightning Damage	CLF78, Ismy	Track objects such as Goombas, penguins and crabs are no longer affected by Lightning.
	Shock Squishing	CLF78	If a shrunk player and a normal player bump into each other, the former will be squished (but will not lose their item and will not experience hit-stun).
Mega Mushroom	Mega Flips Everything	JoshuaMK	Trucks and Chain Chomps will flip over if hit with a Mega Mushroom (instead of stopping the player).
	Mega Mushroom Size Modifier	CLF78, Ismy, TheLordScruffy	The player's size when in a Mega Mushroom is 1.5× the original (and capped to allow bigger vehicles to fit certain areas). The camera FOV is slightly increased to maintain visibility.
Feather	Feather Item	CLF78, stebler	The Feather, which replaces the Blooper, lets you trick off the ground and jump high in the air. Additional features include disabling invisible walls and fast falling (both while airborne).
POW Block	Fast POW	mdmwii	The POW Block hits at the second strike instead of the third one to keep players on their toes.
	No POW Delay	Ro	If a POW Block is used while another is about to strike, the strikes will be reset. This can be used to confuse players.
	POW Yourself in 1st	CLF78	If a player uses a POW Block while in first place, they will hit themselves.
Thunder Cloud	Fix Thunder Cloud Glitch	CLF78	The bug that causes the Thunder Cloud effect to remain if the cloud disappears is fixed.
	Impervious Thunder Cloud	CLF78	Thunder Clouds no longer disappear when using a power item or entering a cannon.
	Mega/Bullet Thunder Cloud	_tZ, CLF78	Instead of shrinking the player, the Thunder Cloud gives a Mega Mushroom effect (or a Bullet Bill effect if the player is lapped).
Bullet Bill	Bullet Bill Cannon Speed Modifier	CLF78, Ismy	Players in a Bullet Bill move faster in cannons than regular players.
	Bullet Bill Duration Modifier	CLF78	Overtaking too many players with a Bullet Bill no longer causes it to end early. This does not apply to first place.
	Bullet Bill Speed Modifier	CLF78, davidevgen	Bullet Bills move at 220 km/h, making them the most valuable item in order to catch up to other players.
	No Bullet Bill Icon	Anarion	Makes the Bullet Bill icon in the roulette disappear after using the item, allowing players to pick up and use other items during the Bullet Bill's effect.

Item Data

Item amounts are determined separately from item pulls. The chances of pulling a triple item in a distribution is the pulling chance × the amount chance. Objects will always spawn a single item.

  • Random Combination crashes when used in split-screen mode.
• Bob-ombs generated by objects offline will not blow up unless hit. They will also slide on slanted surfaces, although very slowly.
• Memory-intensive tracks may cause items and objects to lose their collision or disappear altogether.
• Players who skip key checkpoints online using the Feather will cause their position to desync.
• The game may enter an infinite loop and crash when too many items are on track. This only seems to occur offline.
• Two players can hold the Lightning and POW Block item at the same time.
