After Shakedown replay buffer is free so we can do any replay before katana replay. I'm talking about that u can do replay before Bar Brawl or before Cop Land, when u r on call, on save icon. And then after Cop Land when you are left Starfish Island (right corner label Little Havana) u press F3 once. Dont do it early or u get inside mancion :D Game keep in mind that. and after you pass CtC and drive to last mission you will get savewarped into mansion. Guessin that saves u mb 15 sec or more :)

P.S. If u saved with taking save icon and then u load save u get warped :)

idea

in run by marushko22

too early LUL

A very minor optimization for the end

Also make sure you don't enter starfish with OM1 because that will cancel the warp so just take the phonecall earlier

That can be used more times in any% run?

When is sub 50? :D Nice strat guys.

There has been a Discord conversation and these are the results (I might as well not have been involved in it).

EBen did not warp in one of his runs. Solution: You may only collect 19 pickups between picking up the save pickup and entering Starfish Island because the game only stores the last 20 pickups (I say 19 because the first one is the save pickup).

This is a list of collected pickups in an EnglishBen run where he picked up too much (note that he could not account for the whole 20, only 19 - IIRC, the 20th one is believed to be money):

1. katana rampage
2. pw buy
3. pw save
4. katana rampage
5. bribe 1
6. bribe 2
7. pw save
8. pw save (1x CP)
9. pw save (2x CP)
10. pw save (3x CP)
11. pw save (4x CP)
12. pw save (5x CP)
13. htc briefcase
14. money
15. money
16. money
17. money
18. money
19. money
20. pw save
