Hmm Star... is not losing more than 10-20 seconds to BTT over the course of an hour really humanly possible? Does that mean SM64 120 star sub 1:34 is humanly possible with current strats?
Sub 1h BTT already, sub 1h SoB could happen with a good route, and a sub 1h run can then be grinded out over the years.
This restriction can also be done with Any%
The builder outfit room is slow
The bullet billding is fast though, Stravos confirmed that it is now faster for Any%
69 moons would end in Lost with a proper route. 42 moons would probably end in Lake or Wooded
I can imagine the idea working, but let's make it a little more of a meme - 69 moons. The reason I see it being more interesting than Theo% is because you will add more moons on top of Any%
We thought about that, didn't seem interesting enough to actually get a run. More cap and jump farming than in AM/100%, more coin grinding than in AM (maybe even a few more total coins to replace purples). A lot of shop menuing time, a lot of Toadette spam...
All Hats seems balanced - 560 moons to unlock the Metal cap, visit Dark and Darker Side, some purples, not too many coins
The categories were renamed because @BeardBear was able to prove that the final spark pylon is not in fact a capture, making all existing runs have 1 capture less.
Well StainedGlass501 attempted it a few times, but yeah it's way beyond inconsistent even at a top level
Chowser, those approx. 1000 numbers are the input. Getting the best route out of them is an NP-complete problem known as a variation of the Travelling Salesman problem
It is possible to:
Enter rules for one category and all levels Enter rules for one level and all categories.
The sum of those 2 features will appear in the ruleset box.
Wait, he gives you unlimited hints? Well then... replace "all 3" with "only" and add "and moons needed to unlock those moons or Talkatoo". Also I don't think having to run back every time benefits this category.
Or are the moons he tells you about limited to 3 at once, meaning we could simply solve this by saying talk to him once and get all those 3 moons? That would be my favourite
Okay, so here's my ruleset suggestion: Beat the game as fast as possible while collecting all 3 moons announced by Talkatoo in each of the kingdoms up to and including Bowser's kingdom. This includes Talkatoo in Cap, Cascade, Sand, Lake, Wooded, Lost, Metro, Snow, Seaside, Luncheon, and Bowser's kingdom. Timing starts on File select and ends when shooting out of the electric wire in the escape sequence. Use of Amiibo, Luigi's Balloon World, and Assist Mode is banned. 1 player mode only.
Finally a good RNG-based category for this game. Who says everyone hates RNG?
Should timing end on the last frame where input can affect something?
Link to the current Human Theory with current strats and no TASing tools?
Clipping is not allowed because not clipping is a legacy obstacle. See All Story Moons as a legacy category.
Same goes for Elva. As far as I know, All Purple Coins ILs are intended to represent parts of the All Purple Coins full-game run
