Sorry this is gonna sound really lame. Do most people who create maps (especially racetracks) Use the Budget glitch? The one where they can use every item up to the Maximum Run Time Limit? Or is there another Budget Glitch that I'm not aware of that works better.
I've seen some pretty amazing racetracks which allow you to use the budget glitch (which lets other people turn it into a duck hunt, which is nice. For racetracks, the budget glitch causes a lot of unnecessary problems. Plus, you'll often run into the object limit before the budget limit. On sandbox, I'd recommend no, unless you are certain that you will need it, but on every other map, people use it because it is necessary from the budget glitch.
If you think your going to make a big race track then i would recommend a stacked budget map. But if you are sure you will stick within the budget then i would recommend just the normal map, so you wont mess anything up in the settings.
Im new to the whole idea of budget glitches also, when i first saw budget glitch i assumed it meant that i was going to be able to place more of an item than the run-time maximum allowed. Tried one and it wouldnt let me place anymore past that. Thats what im really looking for.
