Ring Escape is a mod that adds a new gameplay mechanic, allowing you to spend Rings to tech out of hits from items and other track hazards.
Simply press Spindash (or Accel+Brake+Drift) while stunned or spinning out/tumbling to tech, immediately regaining control. This costs 10 Rings to use, but can be performed with as little as 1 Ring. If you're tumbling, you'll also get a short hop forward to assist with getting back on track or out of a pit.
Ring Escapes are not infalliable; when teching your invulnerability gets cut in half (if you would have gotten any in the first place) on top of engaging Ebrake/Fastfall, and a savvy player can use that to punish you further, potentially leaving you in a worse spot than you would be if you hadn't spent the Rings. Furthermore, reckless usage will quickly put you into zero/negative Rings, which of course leads to Ring Stings and losing the ability to escape. Tech wisely!
v1.5 adds the following additional mod settings:
Special thanks to the Kart Krew Discord for putting up with me while I threw this together, this was my attempt to learn how DRRR's modding system worked while a dedicated documentation wasn't released yet, and while I was mostly bumbling around in the dark I'm happy with what I've got here so far. I'll likely be coming back to this mod as I learn more and as further updates allow more things to be done with mods.
