Rubber banding in Mario Kart Tour
This talk page or section has a conflict or question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment. |
Mario Kart Tour features a type of bonus challenge where you race against a large driver on a given course. While the game does not treat them as "rivals" in the sense made plain by this page, these large opponents heavily exhibit rubber banding and I was wondering whether it would be appropriate for this page to make note of it. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 00:23, December 22, 2020 (EST)

mentioning this… HappyToad (TALK • EDITS) 03:55, December 22, 2020 (EST)- Then perhaps going by what Glowsquid (talk) originally proposed in this thread, we make a separate article for rubber banding AI that concerns the use of this mechanic outside of the rival system. In that same thread, Mister Wu (talk) linked to a patent for a GameCube racing game program (presumably relevant to Mario Kart: Double Dash!!) in which CPU-controlled drivers are given a different driving performance based on the position of their target, i.e. the player. I am not knowledgeable on whether Double Dash!! uses a rival system since I've never played the game, but this article at least seems to imply it does not, and with the isolated instances of rubber banding seen in Mario Kart Wii and Tour, I think it's safe to say that it is an independent game mechanic and not just an asset to the rival system. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 13:28, December 22, 2020 (EST)
