Hi,
Since you already got some 'check' points you can just calculate the
distance to the next one, if that one decreases then all is fine, if it
increases then it is no good and you show the sign. Of course you need
some special checks when you go from one checkpoint to the next. Oh, and
maybe wait a bit time before you write the 'wrong way' to the player..
depends on the game of course but on some games it makes sense if the
player goes a bit back (driving backwards because the player hit
something) or if the player collided with another car.
Good luck,
Sam

Subject: [gameprogrammer] Racing Game
Hi,
I working on a racing game and I have a problem: To know whether the
player finished the race I test if the car position is in the finish
line, but the problem is if the player starts running, turns the car and
then drives in the wrong way it will end up winning the race :-(. How
could I know the player is in the wrong way? I put several check points
and uncheck them if it was already checked, but I really would like to
put a sign in the screen telling him his is in the wrong way.
Thanks a lot and Marry Xmas!!!
Dirso.
