ok thank you, on more thing to do my timesplits i have to quickly tab away from spore and press my hotkey then tab back is there any way to make this progress easier?

yes i would very much like to have your timers for easy fullrun. i will practice this game stage by stage and those times i can easily find on here. i pretty much know what to aim for in the first 2 stages just the last stages i have no clue yet how to play those.

yes i am playing spore windowed on very lowish resolution.

so basicly im new to speedrunning, this game looked like a fun game to revisit and to test my luck in speedrunning.

i have obs to stream it, livesplit to keep track. anything else i need (setup wise) i can only think of adding a comparison to kinglyvalence for each split but his video didnt show any splits.
