[Read] Different Character Skins issue for iL and Any% Runs
6 years ago

It seems to me changing the character skin maybe be a problem in the iL side of the leader-boards. The 2 I've been asked about is the Tin Soldier and Plastro skin. Mostly I see that the hit-boxes maybe completely different and you won't take as much damage which might be an issue for the iL side like I stated before but the problem is I have not tested yet. In addition you can test it out for yourselves but for now on until we get a conformation only use Sarge skin from now on so we won't have any issues for the future some runs might also be deleted/Rejected. Thank you.

I don't think the skin affect the runs. I was just able to re-create Aceroni's 1:02 Attack with Sarge. I also recreated my own spy blue 0:47, and managed to get a 2:43 with sarge on riff, almost matching my 2:42 with Plastro. The hit boxes may make a tiny difference, but from my experience playing the game I've only been back boosted once ever, usually when hit with a bullet it just causes you to keep running in the same direction and typically doesn't slow you down, but where it may make a difference if it even does is jumping over things without grabbing since Plastro is the shortest character. Also the fact that the codes are available to anyone and really easy to use. It's up to you if you want to reinstate the times, but 1:02 attack isn't easily recreate-able, and finishing riff mission alone sucks even though I believe the time can be pushed down another 8 seconds if played perfectly.

So we have absolutely no proof that Tin Soldier ruins hit boxes, on EASY DIFFICULTY I might add, and my runs were removed anyways? Don't you think that's something you should test first? Everyone has had their runs on here for years/months. I'm the only one who was recently adding times with the soldier skin.

Sorry if I caused any inconvenience I just didn't want something new to be discovered that changing your skin could effect the game and in doing so mess up the iL leaderboard resubmit your times and I will verify them as soon as possible.

Fair enough. In the mean time i'll just do them all with Sarge skin just incase . Better safe then sorry
