Boost Pad

[CGM]

If you use a vehicle sprite sheet (if you don't have one, check the resources page) and you make a little race, how about a boost pad? The way I see this with code is create a new object, assign code so that if the character hit's it, it increases the speed of the character for about 2and a half seconds or so. I would make 3 of these with different color variations like the springs.

Sounds like something you could do with invisible command blocks and timelines which adjust the physics of speed.

Oh! Like, I could make a sprite (or replace one) for the scenery. Make command prompt do the work by placing a block on there. There is one problem with that though, if you were to let the character go back to the pad, it would not work! I was thinking about command blocks that work whenever the character goes through/touches them. Then this would work.
