Drift City/Licenses

Licenses are a new feature of Drift City as of v0.15f that reward players for completing certain goals, much like an achievements system. Many licenses are offered in several grades, each with progressively more difficult requirements.

Licenses can either require one completed goal from a list to choose from, several completed goals, or one specific completed goal. Some licenses are also only achieved if the player has achieved one or more other licenses as well. Some licenses for the Battle Zone ladder are time-limited; at some point, the ladder points needed to obtain the license are reset, and the license is taken away until the player obtains enough ladder points again. The requirements for each license can be found by navigating to the License tab of the Inventory window, then by mousing over the license. Some licenses provide bonus effects; these bonus effects are listed below the requirements for the license.

The bonus effect for a license can only take effect if the license is active. Only one license can be active at a time, and a player's current active license is visible next to his or her name tag and driver information. Players can change their active license between any they have obtained by opening up the Inventory window, clicking on the License tab, and dragging the desired license from the right panel to the left panel.

Ladder Licenses
These licenses are awarded after the player earns a certain amount of ladder points in the Battle Zone. Ladder points are earned by winning races and lost by losing races. The requirements for these licenses are arena-specific, however a player only has to complete the requirements for a single arena to earn a ladder license. All ladder licenses better than Class A may be taken away depending on a player's ladder record over the past two months.

All license requirements with the words "Ladder Battle Win Percentage" have percentages next to the requirements. These percentages are not the actual requirements; rather, they are the percentage of the requirements that the player has already completed. For example, a license requirement that is displayed as "Superstar Arena Ladder Battle Win Percentage 12%" would mean that the player is 12% to completing the ladder requirement through the Superstar Arena.
