Trickster randa turning bug?

[devedse]

Hello everyone, I've noticed this thing for quite a while now but never thought about posting it until now.

Sometimes when you're flying in your randa (which I am always) and you press "D" to turn around you loose most of your momentum and end up in a near stall. This often happens after smashing a few buttons on your keyboard when doing some nice manoeuvrings. I don't know if anyone else noticed this?

You can't make a picture of something that happens during some frames, explanation for newbz:

normal:

1. Fly with 200 km/h

2. turn by pressing D

3. fly the other way with 200 km/h


Extraordinary (bug):

1. Fly with 200 km/h

2. turn by pressing D (and doing some nice and cool moves)

3. fly the other way with 0 km/h <---- this should also be 200km/h

Perhaps this could be the issue (from this thread)?

Walls tend to fxx0r up a randa's momentum. You can hit a wall and totally lose your momentum, making it look like you just lost all your momentum due to tricksterring right after just slightly hitting a wall.

You can also time the trick at the right moment, bouncing off of the wall getting a sick speed boost. I've mastered this slightly but it's useless because you lose a lot of health and you'll have to use rubber. Image the qq along with a rubber randa. You'll be mercilessly slain in pro matches.

And Karlam goes like: IT'S NOT A BUG, IT'S A FEATURE!

Oh and henceforth this move shall be called pulling a Boko, yes I just baptised it.

[devedse]

Well the keyboard thing isn't the case since then I wouldn't be turning at all.

I don't know about the other thing boko said, I knew about going fast but I'm not sure about the slow thingy, I culd trai iet.

Bump for great thread.

This does happen when you pick up the bomb and trick immediately upwards, but that kinda makes sense
