Loading any mod outside of music replacement and simple hud mods will trip isgamemodified and make it display "The game has been modified, but is still using Ring Racers save data." You can try this yourself by loading Time Attack Helper - which you have marked as legal - or a character that does not have Lua, and typing it in the console. As a result, the rules as listed don't make much sense:

• As of July 2nd 2026, Any Time Attack run that uses a character mod must type in "isgamemodified" in the console before starting the replay and/or share the replay .lmp file through a file sharing website (Ex. Mediafire), to confirm if the run is legit or not.
• Non-lua/On Chart Characters - normal addon characters that dont mark the addon as a game modifying addon, this goes for any characters who have speed and weight stats up to 1 and 9, if you have a character from a addonpackn that has another character that causes the game to be modified, look for individuals for characters in that pack, which can usually be found in the SRB2MB page for the addon.

Any character mod will trip isgamemodified with or without Lua, so you have effectively disallowed every character mod with this rule. I'm a little curious how this situation came to be in the first place, as it seems to stem from a fundamental misunderstanding of what isgamemodified does and doesn't do. To reiterate, modifying the game in any way outside of replacing whitelisted assets will, in fact, mark the game as modified. Please research a bit better before you make sweeping changes like this that affect the legitimacy of these leaderboards.

As I see it, run verification can be as simple as requiring submitters to provide a replay file and then seeing if it explodes upon loading it without any addons. You have already listed this as an option, but everything regarding isgamemodified doesn't make much sense, so I would recommend taking the route of requiring replay files for Time Attack runs and getting rid of anything that is asking for modified game checks unless you intend to disallow mods completely (which seems needlessly draconian to me, but that is your prerogative).

Hello diggle, i didnt until you said something that all character mods would trigger "isgamemodified" immediately, I will successfully make changes to the rules not require to check isgamemodified before or afterwards and just require to share the ghost file for it and I apologize for any errors and or confusion I made to when making this new rule, Thank you for bringing this to my attention though and the changes should be made in a little bit after this message is sent.

Change has been made, you will know only require to share your replay file for verification, thank you for bringing this to my attention and I promise anything like this wont happen again.

Thank you very much Noah, I appreciate it!
