In Moon Karts™, winning isn’t just about reflexes—it’s about preparation. That’s where the Presets feature shines. As someone who’s pored over the game’s design, I can confidently say Presets are a powerful tool that separates competent drivers from consistent winners.
What Are Presets?
Presets let you save up to four distinct kart configurations. Each configuration (preset) bundles together your choice of driver, kart, tech cards, accessories, and power-ups. Think of each preset as a full deck: not just one part, but everything you need for a race setup.
Believe me, in Moon Karts, adaptability is everything. Different tracks demand different builds—tight curves favor handling and control, wide straights favor speed and acceleration. By having multiple presets ready, you can quickly switch to the configuration that fits the map, rather than rebuilding from scratch.
Also, opponents vary. If you know the competition tends to push speed builds or defensive builds, you can match or counter them using specific presets. That tactical responsiveness gives serious advantage in higher-tier races.
Setting Up & Managing Your Presets
Putting together presets is straightforward, but doing it smartly takes thought:
Choose your driver, kart, tech cards, accessories, power-ups carefully. It’s not just about picking the highest stat; synergy matters.
Save your setup once you’re happy. That becomes one of your four presets.
Don’t assume static is good—update your presets over time. As you acquire new tech cards, parts, or power-ups, revisit your presets and refine them. What worked last season may be less optimal now.
Tactical Tips
Have at least one balanced preset for general tracks.
Create specialized presets for tracks with lots of turns or ones with long straightaways.
Consider the contest: in tournaments or leagues, learn common builds among competitors; use a preset that counters them.
