Editing F-Zero RPG (section)

==Tracks and Track creation==

'''Anatomy of a track:'''
[[File:MUTEONEALPHAFINAL.png]]
*In F-Zero:the RPG track consists of 3-5 sections.

*'''How section is made:'''
<pre>
-Section type and required piloting roll (straightway, curves...)
-Section features (gap jumps, boost plates, mines, damage zones...) and roll requie to hit this feature
-Consequences for piloting roll failure (vary)
-Optional: special rules for section 
</pre>

*'''Example of a section'''
<pre>
SECTION 1: Straightway (piloting 2)
Boost plate (5)
Mines (3)
Failure:Mines
SPECIAL RULE:Gap jump - at the end of action phase 
all pilots make a piloting roll (4). Failure: -1 rank 
Those moving with speed over 400km/h pass automatically.
</pre>


*'''Balancing your tracks' difficulty'''
The difficulty of a track is measured in stars. 
*New pilots (0-1 in piloting) usually start from 1 and 2 - star tracks, with cup final being 3-star. 
*Intermediate league races (majority of players have 1 or 2 in piloting) are held on 2 and 3 - star tracks with 4 or 5 - star track as final.
*Expert league (piloting 3 -4) consists of the scariest 4 and 5 - star tracks with something utterly terrifying for final.
*Of course you then may unleash the secret cup on them. For secret cup tracks... go wild.

Some guidelines:
*'''Make it possible to crsh on track because of ramming/swiping/repeated guiderail hugging'''
*'''Don't oversaturate tracks with boost/jump plates. This leads to people gaining top speed too easily.'''
*'''Don't use too many gimmicks. Usually one gimmick per track (or one gimmicky section, even) is enough.'''

Track section difficulty per stars:
<pre>
having boost/jump plates makes accelerating easier and with exception of tracks that actively try to murder you (with a lot of mines, no rail sections...) make
track easier (slightly or even costing track a star)
1 star - average section difficulty of 2-4, difficulty for jump cheating 5-6, pit zone , a couple of non-lethal obstacles 
like rough terrain

2 star - average section difficulty of 3-4, difficulty for jump cheating 5-6, pit zone , rough terrain, damaging zone/magnet, 
sparse or even heavy rough.

3 star - average section difficulty of 4-5, difficulty for jump cheating 6-7, pit zone that requires to meet a certain pilot roll, 
damaging and slowing obstacles

4 star - average section difficulty of 4-7, difficulty for jump cheating 8+, pit zone with fairly high (5-7) piloting requirement, 
various obstacles including no rails sections

5 star - average section difficulty of 7-8, difficulty for jump cheating 9+, pit zone with fairly high (6-8) piloting requirement,
a couple of really dangerous places, heavy rough terrain, no rails sections, otherworldly gimmicks, gap jumps...
