- Added more Renthal Half-Waffle Grips in more color variants and custom color.
- Added KYB suspension parts for all MX bikes.
- Added a custom color Thrill Seekers seat to all MX bikes.
[h3]Physics[/h3]
- Implemented changes to rider elevation "lurch" mechanic to disincentivize input spamming. The effectiveness of a lurch is determined by the relative position and velocity of the bike. Additionally, the effectiveness of subsequent lurches are progressively reduced until the bike transitions from air to ground or back. This results in converting the spamming advantage into a timing-based advantage which penalizes triggering too early/late and rewards careful/considered use.
- Increased the thresholds for near-wrecks during lateral slides to reduce the occurrences of wrecks and near-wrecks when sliding through a turn or sliding into a rut hookup. Also removed the steering near-wreck penalty triggered by a sliding near-wreck.
- Improved whoops physics by maintaining constant pitch torque on the rear tire when leaning back while not in a wheelie. This makes it much easier to keep the front of the bike up when skipping whoops and leaning back.
- Fixed a bug which caused excessive forces to be applied when playing at >60fps.
[h3]Animation[/h3]
- Reduced the distance the rider is thrown from the bike during big wrecks.
- Improved the cornering animations by sitting the rider more upright the more the bike leans into a slide, giving the appearance that the rider is counter-steering a power-slide. The Rider will still lean with the bike when not in a sideways slide, like when railing inside ruts.
- Added animations for rider elevation lurch. While pushing down, the rider pushes the bike down and will stiffen/extend their legs to get the bike as far down as possible. While pulling up, the rider will pull the bike up into themself until nearly sitting on it.
