Oh, I think this is the MTA:SA R1.1.1 version server. My server is 1 rank lower than yours, but its the #1 in MTA:SA R1.0 server because there are only maximum of 30+ players but in MTA:SA R1.1.1, there are hundreds of players.

Thanks :)

PS : Your server rule is more detailed, mine is quite simple but straight to the point ;)

Note : My server's forum:

add a section

DO NOT DO THIS

for example

do not make a ramp + checkpoint that changes to plane /boat /rc baron

- if you want to use that place the checkpoint at least 1 meter after the ramp so players dont get stuck

etcetcetc ;)

other than that .. good job - carry on :D

ps - there a 2 lane 8 player starting grid is also very annoying

1. the players in 1st and 2nd starting place will win

2. if there is a few players with lots of lag difference its still a messy start

but still better than some impossible amount of players on really small area

best starting line is a fair .. 1 ugly row

but that dont work too well with most tracks

anyway still its better to have 2 lane 8 player than random spawns .. where you get stuck in walls or start in front of a tree etcetc

Even though I'm new to MTA and mapping I have some minor tips too.

1) Don't use a helicopter vehicle change cp at ground level when players are likely to travel at a fairly high speed. The heli needs time to get at full speed before being able to take off. You can use a vehicle change pickup instead (Heli's will change at full rotor speed with a pickup item).

2) Don't use nitro pickups when a player is on a bike (unless they get to choose between a bike or car). As far as I know it's pretty useless because you can't use the item anyway.

3) Don't place nitro pickups right in front of a vehicle change cp. Again - pretty useless because you'll loose the nitro once your vehicle changes.
