You wouldn't really be able to test it, as ScorpCoaster isn't really glitchable (to my knowledge! :D)

Forced ports will prevent glitches which allow access to the next objective(s) from allowing the glitching player to complete that objective, but they won't stop a) usage of items from next objective b) usage of position from next objective to fire upon enemy players c) glitches which are used to bypass part of the path and are viable when the target objective is the current objective. Contact with a checkpoint from an objective which comes after the current objective or checkpoint sequence breaking would terminate the player, thus comprehensively preventing any form of advantage from being gained.

If you're willing to take the time to implement all those checkpoints, then sure, I'd agree.

Skipping to next objective (with ability to claim it) is the most damaging to gameplay however, the others are trifles in comparison.

I am.

In the end, the purpose of any glitch is to give unfair advantage to the player. While I agree there are degrees of advantage to be gained, a player who uses an intra-path skip still cheats everyone else out of a fairly acquired objective and a player with a Redeemer or a sniper in a position he shouldn't be in can still ruin someone's game, as you experienced on SkyRace.

I meant the Redeemer in your case (Xalez).

Oh if you only knew. I still need to fix a exploit that is extremely game breaking.. lets just say.. one can jump from a said half pipe to the objective.

Its rare but it can happen.

I count glitch as something that can be done reliably :p

Which reminds me of another;

Industrial Race - Can use the vertical ramp shortly into first objective to reach final objective, with a vehicle.
