[/p][p]Now, let’s get into what’s new![/p][hr][/hr][h3]Skipped Checkpoint Detection[/h3][p]The game will now automatically detect if you’ve missed a checkpoint
If that happens, your kart will be teleported back to the missed checkpoint, and a notification will appear in the middle of your screen.[/p][h3]Checkpoints Visible on Minimap[/h3][p]On some tracks, it was hard to tell where the checkpoints were, now they’re visible directly on the minimap.

Now, you’ll see the actual time differences recorded during the race - just like when the record was created.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Respawn Target Point Improvements[/h3][p]The respawn system has reverted to the old version without issues like skipping parts of the track or passing through walls.
Additionally, a bug in the initial point selection has been fixed.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Reset Keyboard & Joystick Bindings - Fixed[/h3][p]Resetting key bindings in the Options menu now properly resets joystick bindings as well.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]Track of the Day Ghost File Override - Fixed[/h3][p]There was a critical issue where setting a new record in the TOTD leaderboard replaced global leaderboard ghost file.
