I thought he was talking about towing cars with a visible rope, but he just went completely outta what I was thinking.:shrug:

guys, do you know what these kind of threads remind me of?

I mean, a demo racer comes in and...

[dadge]

nice first post. did the lfs demo inspire you so much you felt that the only thing this game is missing is a tow rope? why would we want one of those? you do know that the phrase "getting a tow" in racing just means that the following car is in the leading cars slipstream? and no a slipstream in not a narrow stretch of slippery water.

He's flag says he's from UK, but he writes like this?
I don't have a clue about what he wants.

[Gekkibi]

I think he meant that tow-rope can be activated just by clicking on the connection list (Just like setups), and the towing cable can be cut accidentally.

However, I might be also wrong. :)

For those of you who do not understand - myself included (well I was anyway) - here's a translation.

"Like with the send setup option, could you have a button to tow somebody with a rope if both players consent to this taking place. The tow rope can be broken at any time."

And no, I don't think it would be useful.

Nice translation, I thought this was the general idea, but thank you for helping us understand better :)

I've got a suggestion for the poster : DONT GO IN SAND TRAPS.

And NO, we don't need tow cables, because the very vast majority of us spends the very vast majority of its time racing/driving/drifting on the road, but not stuck on sand traps !!!

[dekojester]

I'm going to go with an opinion that this would actually be a pretty cool thing to have for leagues to properly tow someone out of the kitty litter instead of shoving them out with the RB4. It might be best to be able to set this to only be used by admins too, so there's no abusing it - make it a "special option" to the RB4, for instance. It would also be useful for towing cars that run out of fuel on track, etc.

So, a +1 for me for league/event use, but a -1 for general everyday pickup racing.

I don't think it's a great idea to attach to random cars, but if there was the option of a proper Safety Car or some kind of rescue vehicle I think this could work.

[Exile R]

i can sense abuse on this one, as in trying to slingshot people and failing. :schwitz:

[Bandit77]

Cruz servers. :x

I'd love to be Cruz's server... aaah... that's something different, sorry. :D

[boothy]

I'm sure in the future, sometime in the distant future more like, there will be a function in racing games to have a low loader, the recovery Discovery, JCB, large crane, marshals, Ambulance, Medical car, Safety car, Fire truck, Course cars and many other real life features, however, you're going to be waiting a long time, as many other things need to be added first...

[Mikey Monkfish]

It's threads like this that start things like "Easy Mouny" and "Me Thing Mest Up", as seen on the Forza 2 forum.

Gentlemen, we're at the brink of a forum epidemic. The emergency exits at to your left and right, and you will find a floatation device under your seat.

[March Hare]

"special option" to the RB4,
Nah. Using the RB4 would be kind of stupid. I've not seen that many races but in the ones I've seen the recovery wehicle is usually something with a bit more...leverage.

If the dev's would make a tow truck for LFS I would spend all my LFS time on recovery missions :D

ASCII art fail.

[frokki]

ASCII art fail.why fail?

[S14 DRIFT]

Because it sucks?

[Gekkibi]

Because only newfags says the word "fail"...
"We are anonymous"

[S14 DRIFT]

Or people who can't think of a better adjective. :really:

[tristancliffe]

But fail is a verb!

[Gekkibi]

:D

Semi-legendary.

...Should somebody lock this thread already?

[rediske]

why fail?

...because it looks like a guy biting into a big cheese! :D

[jwardy]

you must have been bored lol , nice edit though

[S14 DRIFT]

To fail is a verb, correct.

8.0 hp ?
Gosh, my old 50cc 4 stroke bike did more than this :p

Maybe it has a hella lot of torque (like 100000000Nm), but only runs at fractions or rpm :shrug:

[S14 DRIFT]

Not sure about that o_O

Would have had to be a pretty highly strung out 50cc for that. Most 2 strokes wouldn't be able to do that.

[Zen321]

It was a Honda Dax 50cc engine that I prepped. The stock crank hp was 3.4 at around 8000 rpm, I fitted a larger carburetor (not too big, just enough for the displacement), prepped the cylinder head to let the air flow easier (at the intake and the exhaust), prepped the exhaust to allow more flow, changed the ECU (well, the ignition control unit :p) to a one that allowed a variable ignition timing and moved the rev limiter to 10000 rpm (redline is at 10500).

The whp for those mods was 7whp, chich is grossly 8bhp.

[SauberDrifter]

Better improvement over tow ropes are guns!

Hate that guy who won't concede his racing line? SHOOT HIM!

Some guy is weaving so you can't draft him. Bang bang!

Hell, LFS should be just like Grand Theft Auto games. Shoot everything!

:tilt:

[SauberDrifter]

I think I know where this guy got an idea for a "tow rope". Seems like when you bump the back of an FBM in an FBM, it's like you're almost glued to them.

[harjun]

with both plays concent like sending setups the user my tow a nother with a invisable or visable tow rope which can be broken at any time
IN ENGLISH:
With both players permission (rather like sending a setup), one user may tow another with an "invisible":really: tow rope which can be broken.

Congratulatons you replied without reading the entirety of the short thread to realise that someone else has translated it.

so in other (other other) words your just pulling while hes just doing very little sterring....thats ****ed up to the max ( not aimed at you harjun)

[Tomba(FIN)]

I like this idea... gtfo.

[kizzie33]

hi im not sure if this means you like my ideo or wether your jsut takign the piss out of me becuase im not good at english

[Tomba(FIN)]

you are all wrong. Gtfo because this is the f.cking worse idea ever though

[kizzie33]

shut up fail boy !

[kizzie33]

My idea was to have a tow rope and it works like sending a setup .....if someone gets stuck on the corn or any think then its a simple fix if you do a 20 lap corse and get stock on the 19th and have to restart you are going to be really P***ed off arnt you ?

[G!NhO]

you are all wrong. Gtfo because this is the f.cking worse idea ever though
LOL

shut up fail boy !

gtfo, pull yourself out of this sh*t "with a invisable or visable tow rope which can be broken at any time".

[kizzie33]

You couldnt come up with a better idea you couldnt think of any idea fail boy

[S14 DRIFT]

hi im not sure if this means you like my ideo or wether your jsut takign the piss out of me becuase im not good at english

Sorry, you are a disgrace to the English language. You live in England, and so you of all people should have a grasp at English. Get away from the normal typefaces that you may use in MSN. On LFS forum we appreciate full and concise English. Yes, English may not be everybodies first language, but even many Eastern Europeans (whom personally I believe have the worst grasp of English) manage better than you.

Use a dictionary before posting here.

what he said

[kizzie33]

No im disslexice i odnt talk in abrevations on msn for that reson but im really dislesice so its not my folt i can`t help it i do try

[G!NhO]

No im disslexice i odnt talk in abrevations on msn for that reson but im really dislesice so its not my folt i can`t help it i do try
well that cant be possible, a real Dyslexic person will type better than that. :schwitz:

[S14 DRIFT]

Please, don't give me the BS about Dyslexia. That's very poor typing, which is more down to bad habbit and laziness, rather than a problem. I know plenty of dyslexic people and none are even nearly as bad as you.

[kizzie33]

What disslexiceya comes in diffrent levels and regions of how it effects people so dont go all big on be i know more in the area then you

[G!NhO]

What disslexiceya comes in diffrent levels and regions of how it effects people so dont go all big on be i know more in the area then you
are you in the worst region then?

[kizzie33]

It doesnt work like that its like a triangle you can be good in some bad in others and you canrt be at the bottem or the top

[S14 DRIFT]

How can you know more in an area or topic you can't even spell?

It doesnt work like that its like a triangle you can be good in some bad in others and you

See it's not that hard :)

[kizzie33]

richard branson is desslexic a lot of rich people are they no lots of stuff jsut becuase your dessleix dont mean your thik it jsut means your thik in the english part thats it ( exept in some not so cases)

[S14 DRIFT]

How come you managed to type nearly a whole sentence in more than acceptable English, but you now return to using your 'dyslexic' way of typing? Puhleese.. :shrug:

But when have I called you thick?

[kizzie33]

becuase when i try and type normal liek a normal person it comes out rubish so to make it to a normal perons standers i have to double or triple check it and type slower and even then i can still miss things

[S14 DRIFT]

Well mate, it would make your ideas alot more credible and people would pay more attention to your ideas than to your spelling mistakes.

No-one expects perfection, just readability :)

[=C.R= Boomshanka]

[Chrisuu01]

I think tow ropes would be cool thow for when somebuddy crashed.

They shouldn't make it invisible thow

[teedot]

becuase when i try and type normal liek a normal person it comes out rubish so to make it to a normal perons standers i have to double or triple check it and type slower and even then i can still miss things

You can **** right off.

[danowat]

.....if someone gets stuck on the corn

Indeed, theres nothing quite like getting "stuck on the corn" is there :thumb:

[DragonCommando]

You don't have normal dyslexia, thats a common mestake, you actualy have dyslexic dysgraphia, its actualy alot different.

It is the difficulty in writing fast, words will come out wrong and be illegible most of the time. Even if the words are formed correcly in your mind they will still come out wrong, people with dyslexic dysgraphia can ususaly spell perfectly fine if they write slowly.

It isn't always as sever though.
The most sever will have the person writing things completely as jibberish or even backwards, where as a mild case of it will just have the person using the wrong letters or writing them in the wrong order.

I have a very mild case of it myself, I only mess up on certian words/letter combinations. I ususaly pick up on it even before I'm finnished typing the word.

as a note, I made about 20 mestakes writing this.

[Zen321]

Why had someone brought that topic back up ?

[Takumi_lfs]

Dudes, give the guy a break. He really might be dyslexic, my 14 years old cousin has it too and also types like this. Well, a bit more clear but anyway. It's not funny what you guys did.

Fak, someone just bumped a old thread....

[Shadowww]

Yeah, and also humans walking out of cars, Burger Shot in South City, car jacking, M4 to shoot copz0rz, etc, etc, etc :really:
