Number Toggle On/Off

It would be good to have the feature to turn the bike number on and off so people can run a race with their personal skin with their number on it and still have a number in the stats instead of just a blank.

I like this, actually. People will respond, "Oh, use blank number jms" or "Run letters as your number", but this is a good idea.

I think the best way to do this would be to encode it in the skin name. Something like "rm125-nfr#148.png". Then the game would see the "#148" in the skin name, force your number to 148 and use that for scoring, but wouldn't actually render it. The only problem would be what to do when the rider skin and bike skin both have numbers that don't match.

This would be a good opportunity for a pop-up box that says "You stupid noob!"

couldn't you just make the one on the skin have priority? that way it doesn't render the numbers on top of the other numbers.

Yeah but the question would be whether to use the gear number or the bike number. Maybe include a clown suit in 1.5 and force you to that if they don't match?

What about an option just to not render the number plate jms?

well in the AMA rules they only count the number on the bike. so making the number on the bike take priority would be more realistic.
