      not much progress, i ran into some problems with the code and fuze but all investigated now and fixed.

      these are the changes:

      • lots of internal code refactoring
      • switched road tile
      • added background environment (i was not aware there some build in)
      • added extra camera views which you can switch between

          • added segmentbars for fuel and speed
          • added taillights (toxibunny suggested this)
          • added speed optimasation to not call objectpointat if the objects angle has not changed

            Nice to see how this game has evolved, looks nice and fun to play. I like the occasional bird flying over as well :)

              @PB____ ah yeah i forgot to mention the birds :) indeed there are 2 eagles flying over horizontally randomly at certain times. I also added a parralell to the road little flying bird. I really hope adding sounds does not strain cpu that much or i might have to lower enemy cars once more. Have not been able to change / increase speed with the enemy vs enemy detection everything i try seems to fail :)

                During the weekend i worked some more on the 3d car racing game and I have found a name for it ... "The Longest Drive".

                I added my menu system from the Retro Time game, music and sound as well as some difficulty settings. There are 3 difficulty settings defining minimum and maximum traffic. I also implemented @spikey 's Highscore system. The game is nearly finished now, only a few small additions here and there like adding credits, saving options along with the highscores and doing some playtesting.

                Here's a video with the latest changes

                      Cool, the street lights add a nice effect.

                        @Dinocoder yeah initially the cars had lights as well but they are not easily noticeable and it was causing speed issues. I also initially used a worldshadowlight but that still has a memory leak so i use normal worldlight
