So I'm after a bit of help / constructive criticism on the Super Sprint UI.

As way of an update the game now supports 4 players by interfacing with any of the following ports/controllers:
  • Joystick(s) in either standard ports 1 or 2
  • Two keyboard combination sets (QW+z or OP+M)
  • Joystick(s) plugged into the parallel port (adapter required)
  • A hybrid mode which allows the two standard joystick ports to be split, this means mapping up/down and button 2 to left/right button 1 to a car (requires a modified cable) - this provides 4 player support for CD32 owners.

Now on to the main question, the arcade game supported 3 players, I want the Amiga version to support 4. When I've added some of the 4th player options into the UI I just feel it doesn't look right.

If anyone has ideas of a better way then let me know.

The Green (4th) car must be shown on the track select, upgrade car and prepare to race (4 car images) scenes - it does not have to be shown on the Title page or Hiscore.

What do you think? Shall I leave the Green car text on the Title and Hiscore scenes or remove them?
