Go to "settings" and check everything except the last one (The last one is optional it creates a split in the middle of a long chapter). Set the Load Removal Timing Method to "Game Time"

We've discussed this in the past. You are not allowed to spawn wait

I would say however that banning of leaps is also open, remember that we believed it should be banned too until we were persuaded otherwise

You can do it with under 100 ms. I thought we've confirmed that already ;)

So why we allow autojump AND trash leaps

  1. A reason which I put for most mod decisions is that an outright ban of something should be clear and with very good reason. The reasons for autojump we've already determined are bad. The arguments for banning OP leaps are more justified, however we think that everyone at least has the ABILITY to do the leaps, and therefore an outright disallowance shouldn't be done. Also, the "ping bias" idea is futile to fight. I never addressed it, and I probably should have. Maybe it could have let the argument go a better path

  2. All the reasons except "It's a feature of the game" for autojump I only added because you believe that quantity > quality for arguments. The only reason I actually care about is that it's an intended feature, for the reason above. The reason I thought that "it's a feature of the game" is an important argument on its own is because of the implication that we're banning aspects of the game for the sake of speedrunning (and not making like 4 people pissed off)

  3. Assuming I need to stick with my extra arguments, there is a key difference between making the game easier in terms of allowing autojump and banning the leaps. For banning autojump, it allows people to take the easier path. You can still take the hard path, but you have access to the easier path. With keeping the leaps unbanned, you are allowing the hard path. You can still take the easy path (and just not be thirsty for wrs) and still have access to the harder path. Unless it can proven that someone can't do the leap AT ALL, this stands. And in the latter case, again with the implication of banning, we don't want to ban something just for the sake of making the speedrun "better", unless the difference in speedrunning with or without is significant enough (and we don't see one leap for wrs as significant enough).

Feel free to ask for more parts of this arguments (I said a lot more than what's implied in miners' comment). I had a discussion with him

You can't do it for any of these programs if you play on fullscreen; it doesn't go onto the main game (If you play on windowed, just go into settings and set the program to Always on Top). If you mean in OBS, just make a source that records Livesplit (hopefully you know how to do this) and put it on top of the game.

It's more of a taboo that you should not use livesplit game timing. You can use it but know it isn't true / widely accepted. What I recommend instead is to do one of the following:

  1. Record demos, and once you are done use the Demo timer (The first tool under resources) to compile the demos and have them timed
  2. Download and use iVerb's live demo timer (The third tool under resources). If you want to know how to use this, feel free to ask

-- "A republic is similar to a representative democracy except it has a written constitution of basic rights that protect the minority from being completely unrepresented or overridden by the majority." (Diffen)

Important part is the second part

I'd say the right to use any intended game feature is pretty basic. --

For the people who call us communist / authoritarian / relate us to Hitler / Stalin

I feel that is a bit too comprehensive and arbitrary

discussione: Dragon Escape
United StatesFatMan9228 years ago

It might have been a bad example but "the majority isn't always right" is still a thing imo

It's stupid because as of yet we have not seen a reason that we see as "valid"

"Have to play in 1.10" is stupid because 1. You don't HAVE to use autojump and 2. That's like banning 1.7 if 1.7 had stronger leaps.

"Makes the game too easy / removes a lot of skill from DE" 1. IMO it's still difficult 2. It's still difficult to handle autojump 3. Whether any idea (especially a game feature) makes the speedrun worse or not should not be an ultimate factor in determining if it's banned outright (at least in my opinion)

I don't know if it's just bias but I feel like I haven't seen much in terms of responding to these arguments against your arguments, and instead focusing on making new ones (or in thunder's case, rehashing "THE COMMUNITY IS ALWAYS RIGHT" like 500529518156tq times)

Friendly reminder that

  1. The community is not always right. You think that Trump and Hillary were our best options because the majority voted for them? By definition what we are doing is democracy, and what you are asking for is a republic; that is, a republic ALWAYS considered the majority while a democracy uses logic and other things to help out the minority. That being said:

  2. It is stupid to ban something solely because others don't like it. You don't have to use autojump, but if people want to use autojump they can. And if you care so much about getting wrs, then suck it up and just use autojumps. I don't understand why absolutely no-one should be permitted to use autojump because a group of people don't want to use it. The other "arguments" are invalid, and tiggz had said this many times and I haven't seen much response to that

I mod the forums because I have a year of modding experience with Dragon Escape behind me, and not doing DE anymore doesn't change that. That only changes my knowledge of current concerning issues, which this honestly is not (I understand how much slab boosting matters in speedrunning at least because fucking 2 tiggz strats carried me to a 51 almost a year ago)

Tiggz is mod because I trusted him, and he's proven himself good at handling people

Maxi was fucking here with you and then you left xd

"It's full of pathetic people who can't find anything else to do than try to control whats going on" We're doing it for the sake of speedrunning as a whole, not just to say "we have control"; Ruling with an iron fist is useful when the majority doesn't seem to know what's good for the community (which is the case in this case, for several reasons which you probably haven't read).

I like how the argument is based on the fact that it makes the game too easy to get runs on but then you say that even with autojump people still won't be able to beat your runs...

Your last post actually made me question if you even care or if you just like arguing

Thunder stopped saying anything productive that I can respond to and clearly doesn't know how to read so I'll leave Thunder to Maxi and I'm just going to respond to tac

  1. Autojump is not perfect at all; it's still really difficult to do things right, because (as 1 example), if you're aside a block you can jump without meaning to jump. You and Thunder alike treat it as if autojump is literally perfect for speedrunning, and while it may certainly help, I think it still takes finesse.

  2. The idea that you spend a lot of time creating a strat only for it to be useless happens a lot. It's happened to me several times. Do I get salty at first? Yes. Do I care in the end? No. Would I want something done to negatively impact others in order to fix it? No. That's the point. The game evolves, and what you are doing is essentially preventing it from evolving. The way I see it, that's not good

  3. "Why do you want beginners to instantly become good?" It's not necessarily that, it's that they would become "better", or at least, close to contention. As I mentioned and still believe in 1, autojump won't carry people to wrs. They'll just be able to improve at a better rate (Which I think would help people get into this game if they choose to use autojump)

3.meme. "Everyone has to play enough to become good, freaking education revolves around that concept." Is that I've learned nothing new in English in the past 5 years? xd

4."I ever say that the community revolved around me, I'm not a cocky shit" the point that Craftain was saying is that you essentially correlated "I'm going to quit DE" to "DE is dying". Because, again, a REASONABLE person would not quit speedrunning outright just because a certain game mechanic they did not like was allowed for speedrunning. If DE actually dies because of this, then it deserves to die.

  1. I like how Thunder constantly say people are thirsty for wrs when he probably only wants autojump banned so he can keep his records ;)

I would think of that as more of a thing that you can do personally for curiosity sake (or if we made a stats board or smth) - This is actually a speedrun
