I GOT THE BEST IDEA FOR A MINI GAME FOR REVOLT!!!!
it resembles dodgeball, in an arena tonshiden-like track
and you shoot rockets at eachother until only one person is in the arena
but the rockets are actually balls and you have to dodge the balls like in real dodgeball.
There's only one problem though...
you won't always get a rocket when you get a pick up, which means that the closest we could get to this idea is just an all-out battle...
Maybe we could try and tweak the game so this whole idea could work.
im going to start building the actual arena soon.
I hope we can get this to work! its a fun idea

No, it is possible!
Use... arg wat is it called?
MM u have it on your site.
I believe it is RV Trainer.
It's a program that will allow u 2 get only one pickup.
If the ball is a firework, everybody would have to change the model.
But, in some tracks, I have seen a picture inside water balloons.
I have seen it in Zombie, I believe, and in one of Hil's tracks... Hil's track had 2 do something with London...
I think water balloons best simulate throwing the ball, as balls do not turn in midair as the fireworks do.
Just using plain water balloons would be the best idea.
OR just use regular balls, of course! Duh!
Speedup objects or, if weapons are not affected by them, farce fields can be used to keep the teams on their sides without blocking the balloons. If normal balls are used, then speedup object must be used.
There could be a few stars in the edges of the court, but not too many otherwise the game would b too cheap. Either 1 star in the center of the back boarder of each side or a star at each corner of the entire court would be ideal in my opinion.
When a player is hit, he/she repositions and is placed in a losers' room. Where this room will be is up to you, but I have a good idea which I will not disclose here.
In short, use RV Trainer to use only one weapon if the ball will be a weapon, use a speedup/farce field to seperate the sides, and have a losers' room.

i started and almost finished the building of the track today, and its coming out rather nicely. I have to download RV Trainer on Monday to test it, and then maybe i can get some beta testers to help out.

rv dodgeball sounds like a good idea.
............But it would be hard to make.

All we need is a way to modify RV House to work like the Pickup Trainer. Just add an option on the room create window. Maybe if Arto has some free time soon...
