For the beginners and idiots: Do NOT use any kind of hack/modification/cheat! Don't spam or flood You don't need to type 10 lines in 2 seconds to get your point shown. Avoid intentional ramming or blocking You're not playing alone, if you can't keep up with someone, don't try to ram him off the course to keep your position, you wouldn't like it if it happened to you, so don't do it to others. Also, blocking a ramp or a key place in a race really makes other people mad so don't do it! In circuit race don't go backwards! High ping and "lagging" This can happen if you already have problem running single-player GTA:SA on your PC or if you have a slow internet connection. The maximum ping is 300 ms. If you're warping around ingame or just go slower than other people, then this means your game is going slower than it should. Lower your graphic settings and resolution, then try again. Respect the others (or at least try) I know it can sometimes be frustrating when you get rammed or killed by others while racing, but at least try to keep a decent language. This is NOT an instant messaging program. If you're ingame, you're supposed to be playing, not chatting. The chat box is only there to send some comments about ingame stuff. While chatting you're more likely not to be racing at the same time. Vehicle Shooting Rules Deathmatch: This is the ONLY place you ARE ALLOWED to shoot. Standard Races: In normal races (with checkpoints, time limit and positions) you are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO SHOOT OTHER RACERS. If everyone starts with a shooting vehicle or if you change into one while racing, RESTRAIN from shooting with it. The point of racing is not to kill people, but to show your skills. So play fair. Special Races: (like Bulet chase) In SOME special cases, a map where a few players are given shooting vehicles at the start of a race, and where all others are in normal vehicles, you ARE allowed to shoot down racing players (it's the goal) but watch out, you are NOT allowed to "camp" somewhere to shoot everything that passes by, you need to keep moving around. Also, try to go after the leading racers, to give the people in the back a chance to catch up, for a more competitive race. Bikes Prod the up arrow, you will move more faster. Airplanes (helicopters and hover): press the 2 button, you pull the wheel in and you will move more faster. Controlls: wasd and with the arrows. Hydra hover: num8 and num2. Fire: left ctrl and left alt. Practise offline! bicycle: jump button is left ctrl. Car air controll:
