  • Texture
    • Bit 0: some sort of offset?
      • For normal pair textures, left index+1 right index-3
      • For transparent, makes it darker?
    • Bits 1-7: pair index, first texture on left, second on right
      • 00000010 is first pair, 00000100 is second pair, etc

  • Texture
    • Bit 0: unset is normal
    • Bits 1-7: index in BLD texture file

  • Scale factor?
    • Increases the length and height of the "ramp"
    • 1 is a bump, 4 starts breaking textures, 6 is huge vertical wall
  • Angle?
    • Lower is flatter, higher becomes trapezoid with longer top
  •  ?
    • No clue
  • Timing group
    • With otherwise identical config, two bumps with same number move together, with 1 and 2 move oppositely

Effects

Bonus 7

  • Swapping yaw and pitch: loop
  • Swapping yaw and roll: twisting line
  • Swapping yaw and pitch, roll 90.00000: vertical ring to the left
  • Negative yaw: turnright

Length

Given Pulse at its maximum 193 mph on a modified Bonus 4 where all 494 sectors are 1200 long can complete at lap in 28.36 seconds and on the same track but with 50 flat sectors on each side shortened to 100 can complete a lap in 27.41 seconds, 1000 length units is equivalent to 13.45 ft or 4.10 m. Additionally, the rotated portions of the track contribute approximately 0.20 seconds extra compared to flat.
