That would further promote the use of these exploits, and as I have stated before, that is the opposite of what I am trying to do. So, no.

Hello
It has come to my attention that the knowledge of how to use the GameSettings (or whatever their official title is if any) recently has started to become widespread. I know that and a few people, such as myself, have known about it for a long time just by poking around. But in the past few weeks, I have seen quite a lot of people abusing it, as was not intended by the developers. It was merely a tool meant for testing purposes and meant for creating the game. I do not know how much I can do about it, other than make this PSA:

If you know how to use the GameSettings (or whatever their official title is, if any), please try your best to keep the information secret. If it becomes common knowledge, the whole idea behind the leaderboards and ghosting and physics of the game would be undermined, rendering a large portion of the game ruined.

If there is a way for the developers to make the console limited to just themselves, that would be the best fix for this problem. Other than that though, just try to spread the knowledge around.

Thanks,

Honestly, unless it gets spread around a lot more, it's not really worse than copying tracks, and(in my opinion) is harder to do. However, it can still be bad because there are more things you can do with it than with track copying.

it mainly just ruins leaderboards, especially when there are more than a couple people doing it
