Driving backward: Lap counter

Open killerbees19 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Not sure if this is a bug or intended: If you're driving backwards, lap counter will be decremented at finish line. Ok, nice. 👍

But it gets decremented below 1 without showing the real (zero/negative) lap counter! 😲

Tested at Android. (Great little game btw.)

Hi, thanks for your feedback! While it would technically be more correct to show 0 laps, I think it would look odd, especially since 0 would appear at startup until the player crosses the start line. I prefer keeping it this way.

Yeah, that sounds fine! :-)

Just a small question: Is it really intended that the lap counter can be lower than zero?

I know this is a smartass-like note, because nobody would ever drive multiple rounds into the wrong direction. (Only such stupid hackers like me ^^)

Wouldn't it be nice if the lower limit is 0? Currently it's dropping into negative range and after driving into right direction you're surprised why it's not incrementing for a few rounds.

Setting a lower limit to 0 sounds reasonable. If it does not make the code too complex I'll add it.
