I did remove all the old tracks first 
I’ll try shortening the name and doctoring up the objects file! Thanks for the help

So far the editing part is super comfortable! I really like it if I run into anything that could be changed I’ll let you know.
The only thing I can think of at the moment would be kind if nice is some sort of counter displayed for the used billboards items before you reach the maximum. A way to visually keep track would be nice. Unless I’m totally blind and there is already…

A counter would be a good idea.

Update:
We decided to go with larger background, 32 pixels width, to make it look better and less tiled. The downside is that It takes a bit more RAM. Currently there are about 4.5 kb free (in SRAM0). This is how the longer background looks in different themes:
PokittoGP: PokitGP.bin (135.8 KB)
- Customizable background texture (32x16 pixels, “BKGROUND.BMP”)

It is a lot of fun!
I think so 
Here is a guide for making a 256-color texture atlas, i.e. the theme file. The textures are in the folder: "PgpEdit \ Textures \ " in the editor sources. The transparent (pink, RGB:255,0,255) areas of the sprites 1 & 2 are cropped automatically by the editor when saving to a zip file, 32x32 is just the maximum size.

-how do I specify the start tile?
Good. So the path in SD is e.g. \pgpdata\tracks\Mars.
edit: @jpfli, the zip file could contain the full path.
There is no start tile. The ships start always from the fixed positions.
Edit: That could be indicated in the PGPEditor.
So player ship always starts from a certain position?
Yes, that too.
Hehey!!
Here is our first Pokito Grand Prix track,called Virus
It’s a sort of a homage to old 3D vector games and CRT screens with a twist!
This was a father & son effort, I made the graphics, Tuomo made the track … and he enjoyed doing it alot! So kudos to @Hanski and @jpfli !
NOTE: still needs bugfixing! (waypoints etc)

I tried your track, it has a great layout.
Looks great! Very inventive use of the editor (like the “Virus” text on the track).
I am interested to hear comments about the usability of the editor. Is it easy to use? Did you had any problems?
