CHANGES AND UPDATES
Center of Mass Adjusted for Shifted Hitbox Car Body’s
- In past updates, we adjusted the hitbox position on several Car Bodies for a more accurate visual fit. This hitbox adjustment did not include a change to their center of mass, which we are correcting in v2.46.
- This correction will improve how the Car Bodies listed below feel and behave.
- We have ensured that cars with shifted hitboxes and center of masses do not have any advantages or disadvantages in gameplay, including kickoffs.
- Formula 1 2021 (Plank hitbox)
- Formula 1 2022 (Plank hitbox)
- Lightning McQueen (Dominus hitbox)
- Ace (Breakout hitbox)
- Primo (Hybrid hitbox)
- Fast and Furious Mazda-RX7 (Breakout hitbox)
Antenna Flags
- Updates to the following Antenna flag designs:
- Caster
- Dirtyphonics
