Career Events#

Tutorial Events#

The sections below are dedicated to fully unused career events. Thus the entire sections are unused. It's noteworthy that the original language of the lines is not English, but German:

Tutorial Race

SECTION: career/intro1.txt for some reason uses event name from the first Amateurs League event, but it's related to tutorial race event:

ID   EventTitle
DESC (Original:) Stunts, Dents And Adrenaline
TEXT Stunts, Dents And Adrenaline

ID   BriefingText
DESC (Original:) |[TEMPLATE DEVELOPER TEXT]|Chris:||Also wie ein Rennen funktioniert brauch ich dir ja wohl nicht zu sagen, oder? Gas geben und als erster durchs Ziel kommen.

Tutorial Race

SECTION: career/intro2.txt:

ID   EventTitle
DESC (Original:) Tutorial Stunt
TEXT Tutorial Stunt

ID   BriefingText
DESC (Original:) |[TEMPLATE DEVELOPER TEXT]|Chris:||Stunts sind ganz einfach zu fahren. Du fährst zum Beispiel über eine der Rampen oder den Corkscrew dahinten und kassierst Punkte dafür. Punkte gibt es auch für jedes Teil, dass du an deinem Wagen kaputt machst. Die Cracks kombinieren das alles. Sie bleiben so lange wie möglich in der Luft, prallen an irgendwelchen Ecken ab und überschlagen sich wie bescheuert bei der Landung. Dabei sahnen sie richtig Punkte ab und bekommen eventuell einen Bronze- bestenfalls sogar einen Goldstunt angerechnet. Damit du die nötige Beschleunigung erreichst, ist dein Cube RS mit einem Nitro Booster ausgestattet. Der Nachteil bei dem Booster ist, dass er sich sehr schnell überhitzt und erst wieder abkühlen muss, bevor du ihn wieder benutzen kannst. Wir arbeiten aber daran, dass Überhitzungsproblem in den Griff zu kriegen.

Tutorial Wrecking

DESC (Original:) Tutorial Wrecking
TEXT Tutorial Wrecking

ID   BriefingText
DESC (Original:) |[TEMPLATE DEVELOPER TEXT]||Tja... Wrecking. Beim Wrecking geht es primär darum, alle anderen teilnehmenden Fahrzeuge zu schrotten. Sei es durch schlichtes Rammen oder mittels diverser Spielzeuge, mit denen dein Wagen eventuell ausgerüstet ist. Achte auf die Minimap. Sie funktioniert wie ein Radar und zeigt deine Gegner und auch die Checkpunkte an. Wie du siehst, ist dein Cube RS mit Raketen, einer Minigun bestückt. Probier sie doch mal aus!
