When you say solid state, your talking about things like USB sticks right? Not HD's with spinning disk and a head to read the information....

That would be sweet. Some one could make a foxcoder client that would load a specific skin that jay could make to complement the site and client. So who would do it....

Oh and let me ask....
CollisionNY() - Returns the y component of the normal of a particular collision.
What is a NORMAL?

Hey fred, do this....each piece is still its own entity right? Test the collisions for turning against each piece individually. Like make a seperate function for each piece to test collision with it and the cars. If it has collided then turn. You will *snip*

I would suggest just finishing up the track problems. once the layout is 100% working then just randomly choose each option to work on I Guess....or go in order of importance. I like the random idea.

What that first code box does is find the location of the vert where the next peice needs to line up with.
Then the second box just positions the mesh where that vert is at. And if you moved your meshes MOST BOTTOM LEFT VERTEX to 0,0,0 in your mesh edito*snip*

OT:
I was wondering what happend to that. I thought you were still working on it. I was hoping to see that one to its end. Oh well. I never saw any misalignments on yours.
Back on topic. Will my suggestion now work? Or are you saying that the piece*snip*

The pivot idea is a temp and lucky fix. As I stated its just luck that placing the pivot at the VertexX,Y,Z of your vertex is giving you the same result. VertexX,Y,Z just gives you its location on the mesh. TformedPoint WILL give you the verts location *snip*

You could do something like this if you know which vert it is.
[code]
I=countsurfaces()
surf=getsurface(mesh,1) ;Assuming your mesh has 1 surf, most do.
D=Countvertices(surf)
X=VertexX(surf,1) ;The 1 you change, its the number of the vert on your mesh*snip*

Ok I have never messed with banks yet but there is one thing that has my eye.

For y = 0 To CountVertices(surf)-1
size# = max(size#, distance2D#(0,0, VertexX#(surf, y), VertexZ#(surf, y)))
