Inthane,
I want to make it like city streets.
I'm thinking of a GTA game, or something similar.
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.

Ty,
the type and style and even the nature of the tracks depend on what kind of
racing, I. E. quarter mile, Indy, NASCAR, formula 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, grand prix,
flat track oval/sprint car, figure 8 dirt track, demolition derby; so on and so
forth, if you know of a game that is similar to what you want to build, that
can give me an idea of what you want as well.
or just the name of a race you have seen that caught your interest, like the
"long beach grand prix" that's held out here every year, or the "Indianapolis
500"
laters,
inthane

I just want a basic track, that has turns on it etc. I also want other cars
on it. Sorry, I'm not really sure what you want in terms of more information.
Thanks,

I can answer that Ty, but for a good answer you will need to feed info
this way due to different types and styles of racing and tracks, what are you
thinking of,
for any type of mapping, I think your best way to work is with "units"
weather there squares or octagons or pentagons, if you use some sort of
measuring unit it will make things a whole lot easier. squares would be
simplest, but also limiting in some kinds of designs.

Hello list,
I've got a question.
I'm thinking of writing a game in c++.
I want to find a way to make the board and map.
I thought about using an array, but then that would require that all
objects are the same...
Any ideas?
Also, how are race tracks built?
I want to do a bit of racing in the game, just not sure how to lay
those out.
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.
