Timing for sections of AWS runs as ILs

Hi guys,

Dominic asked me if I am going to submit part of my All Worlds Solo (AWS) run as ILs before, but I told him that I am recording separate runs to submit instead. Now I have a 1h23m run submitted, I am now getting the section times to see if they break my IL PBs or WRs.

The thing is ILs are currently timed with the start at the press of Enter/Start button, which for AWS runs, does not exist. (except for World 1) So I think the fix is to change the start of IL timing to a later point, and compensating that time difference by just adding it to the final time.

I measured that, from the pressing of the start button to the first frame where the play icon appears on the screen, it takes around 2.3 to 2.4 seconds. This means AWS sections can be timed from the first frame of the appearance of the play icon to when the boss shatters plus 2.3 seconds instead.

What do you guys think?

PS I think the definition I suggested for the timing is not precise enough. Here are references I made for the exact frame of start and finish. Pressing the start button: the first frame where the start button is not complete, meaning you can see a gap The boss shatters: the first frame that the boss either appears as shattered, or disappears from the screen

I like your solution. I took a look at some IL runs using the above definitions for the exact frame of start and finish, and 2.4 seconds seems very accurate to me. I will update the ILs description to make this clear.
