Ravenbridge Mansion is an official SuperTuxKart track.

History

Ravenbridge Mansion has been created by Jean-Manuel Clémençon and replaced Blackhill Mansion in 0.9.3.

Description

This track pretty much looks like a mix of Cocoa Temple (because of similar gameplay, e.g. the zippers are placed similarly and the alternate path is curved like it there) and Blackhill Mansion (because of same theme).

There is an intended shortcut at the left of the bridge where you can get a zipper boost and a big nitro. For the alternate paths after the first turns, they are very unbalanced: the left path is much faster. There's no unintented shortcuts.

The track is pretty good to run in online multiplayer especially because of the fun beginning (due to item placement). Then there are several gifts that can make the race very "animated". Also the shortcut can modify the race if players fall on it (often happens with parachutes).

The current speedrun WR is 1:39.323, but the best humanly possible time should be 1:39.1. The WR in 0.9.3 is 1:49.840.


Feedback

Some players complain about shortcut not saving enough time, alternate path being useless (unbalanced), the track having too much nitro.
