Horse Race
Anyone know why the finish line on horse race is so bugged for me? Checkpoints catch fine but 80% of the time, once I pass the finish for a map it'll tell me "wrong way" and I'll need to go back and hit the line again. Makes it virtually impossible to win a race. Maybe it has to do with how laggy the Flash client is, anyone else race by PC? Is there a certain lane or spot on the line I need to touch or cross for it to work properly? |

I haven't had the issue of missing checkpoints too often lately since I got better WiFi; however I will say that if I do miss a checkpoint it usually is at the Start/Finish line like you described (I race on iPad). It seems to be the least stable checkpoint.

I think it has to do with client lag. The start/finish line lags really, really badly for me when tons of people idle and chat there during a race because Flash is horrible. Hope it gets fixed, it's frustrating leading a race by a mile just to pass the finish line and not see your name show up on the scoreboard. |

I find it annoying when occasionally it says I didn't pass a checkpoint (usually 11) when obviously I did and there's no shorter way around anyway. Then I spend 20 seconds trying to touch the exact checkpoint and kill all my chances of winning the race.

Checkpoints have always worked perfectly for me, it's just the finish/start.
