This update will be a combination of minimap adjustments and map additions! Below are the notable changes:

Minimap Adjustments

• Icons now scale to a larger size for better visibility.
• Icons will fade out if they are behind the player, preventing UI clutter.
• The next checkpoint icon is brightened slightly for easier detection.

Map Creator Race Additions

Race Creator Mechanic Use: When placing race checkpoints, the first placed object becomes the starting/discovery point. Every subsequent point becomes a checkpoint for the race. Prizes and difficulty levels (e.g., time constraints or drift score requirements) will be auto-generated based on the race lengthspecifically how many checkpoints exist and which stages you have unlocked. When you exit the creator menu, the race is finalized and added to the map.

• Added a creation option for Time Trials
• Added a creation option for Drift Events
• Added a creation option for Sprint Events
• Added a lighting menu to adjust the maps daytime lighting
