It could easily be unloaded on Multi game and deathmatch. This plugin also gives players Course map ranks which can be a fun addition. This could perhaps somehow tie into the SG store. That would be dope! Edit: Also you could technically also have it enabled in multigame, but only keep functions that are for show, such as your ranks or records. While the rest of the functions are disabled. 2 Edited February 23, 2020 by Damon Link to comment

I believe this was because it was paired with infinite respawns which was the part that was more so disliked. I think a timer on its own wouldn't be as big of an issue as the original implementation. A lot of things broke with the first implementation, not because of the timer but because of the respawns from my understanding. It would be nice to see how a timer would play out on course and would give competitive player something to work for and compare themselves against. 2 Edited February 23, 2020 by crazedkangaroo Link to comment

Such as low grav, autobhop, legit etc. This means even new players get a greater chance of beating a course map, which in turn could make the server more popular for newcomers. Then there is the parkour mode, which allows you to climb walls. Crazy fun and makes for some dope strats on some maps. 2 Link to comment

Dong Posted March 8, 2020 Content Count: 538 Joined: 08/29/18 Status: Offline Share Posted March 8, 2020 Certainly something to think about going into our MG staff meeting. ThRza and I have been wanting a course timer but a custom built one for awhile now. We’ll look into this and get back to you. 1 Link to comment

The idea is to have a course timer that's as lightweight as possible, meaning minimal influence on the current course experience. We can then build off of it as suggestions come up. 2 Link to comment
