GKS Goodies is a multiplayer focused addon that provides minor visual enhancements such as bubble status, and enhances some of the existing games functions (like friendlyfire) and gametypes, making those even more interesting and fun to play on. Not only that, but also provides extra server tools such as round control on specific gametypes like CTF based gamemodes, ringslinger, race etc.
This was the main file I use for my servers such as GKS Racing Server [R] and GKS RS Revolution Server, now for many purposes.
The point of this is to overall make the gamemodes and netgame experience interesting, less lua intensive or less heavier, and visually good with less intrusive features intended to be compatible with any kind of server such for custom gametypes or vanilla.
Main Features:
Round Control
Handle each gametype rules's time and point limit.
CTF and Team features:
Teams color variants
Isn't that boring that your team carries a single color? well, not anymore! Inspired by Rocket League, with this addon you can see your mates with red/blue variants.
Flag Holding
Isn't it cool that you see someone having literally the flag?
BattleMod's captured flag fireworks
Honestly this is a cool detail that BattleMod provided. Now you can see it on any capture the flag gametype! (This feature is excluded from BattleMod since it already includes it of course.)

Hurry Up
Inspired from hurry up addon, I made this one specifically for race when a player finishes and the countdown appears.
Race start music
Have you seen Mario Kart games when a race is about to start and plays a music? well this is basically the same.
Race character voices
Inspired from SRB2 Riders and Sonic Riders itself, your character plays a Ready/Set/Go voice during race start countdown and when finishes the race. Currently supported for vanilla characters. Also available to add custom voices for custom characters through external lua script. if a character is not supported, the Sonic R race start countdown voices will play instead. Documentation soon!
Players can disable this using
Race friendlyfire tweaks
Allows shields and invincibility have PVP properties.
Invincibility : Damages players
Force Shield: protects you from 2 hits
Elemental Shield: fire trails actually hits players
More comming soon when it's done

I've been improving about srb2 coding these last months and I have ideas for this addon in terms of features and optimization, so probably for the next Demo will be even better.
