Relay race idea.

[Snappyguy]

It's the olympics and there are a lot of running races so I thought about making a running race with 200% speed to the V.I.P point. Though this is so simple anyone could do it.
So I thought about a relay race!

The idea in general:

Okay, On avalanche (good lay out) you run from a base and the V.I.P checkpoint is at the other base. But you can't run the hole way yourself.
In the middle is a stop where you pass the run to the other team. Honor rules would not be very good here so I came up with this:

How it works:

When runner #1 gets to the middle, he/she/it has to destroy a grav lift. The grav lift then respawns in the runner #2's holding box where they would then be launched out and start running to the other base and will score.
You may say it would take time but it will be on high damage so it is fast but not instant. It would just be like handing the torch to the next person. Which made me think of instead of shooting the grav lift they would throw the torch (spike) to the other person.


Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but I thought it would belong here.

Edit: Sorry I knew I saw that map testing sub forum somewhere! Argh I am terrible at posting!

What do you think? Would it work?

thats a really nice idea it will work well you could also give the first player a grav lift to carry and then drop into the next players area i was going to do a similar thing but with vechiles chasing a player on foot why not make it on sandtrap to take advantage of the minefield

that is a really good idea. Also, may I sugggest that you can try to arm the bomb and inclose the racing area so you have to hand the bomb off just like in a track relay where you hand the baton off to the next runner. and you are trying to arm the bomb at the other base.

Also put some barriers in the racing area so It isn't just a straightaway race.

For my idea on a relay race, teams are separated from eachother by corridors. You can shoot through and stuffs. Then from one end to the other are blocked by several windows that can't be passed. The flag (or bomb) spawns on one side, and the plant point spawns on the other. To score, a team has to run to the window, drop the flag/bomb, and let the other runner take it to their window and stuff.

That would be a cool idea but not much stuff to enclose the area. But I can try

I was only going to make it a V.I.P like the normal mongoose races.

That would be good and I think I will make them invincible and if you assainate someone you loose 2 points plus they appear just out side the second player's box. (VIP)
