TypeRacer Custom Racetrack Commands

Certain chat messages prefixed with a double slash are now interpreted as commands that can be executed by the racetrack’s creator. The following commands allow viewing or modifying the current racetrack’s settings and adding or removing bots.

Configuration commands:

The //set <property> <new value> command can be used to view or change the value of a configurable racetrack setting. Without a <new value>, it simply prints the current value of the given <property>.

The following settings are configurable with this command:

//set maxPlayers <2-300>

Sets the maximum players allowed in the current racetrack (which includes both racers and spectators).

//set maxPlayersPerGame <2-300>

Sets the maximum players allowed to join in a race.

//set newGameDelaySeconds <10-600>

Sets how long to keep displaying an ended race in the UI before starting a new one (specified in seconds).

//set allowGuests <true/false>

Toggles whether you want to allow guest racers in the racetrack. Setting this to false will block all guests from joining the racetrack.

Bot commands:

//addbot <wpm1> <wpm2> <wpm3>

Adds one or more bots. Can specify multiple speeds, each speed adds a bot.

//addbots <number> <avgWpm?>

Adds number of bots with the given average speed. The speed parameter is optional; if omitted, it defaults to the average speed for the track creator’s skill level.

//removebots

Removes all bots.
