For the followed games, it'd be really cool to have them separated into categories. Probably 3 main ones - "Games I moderate", "Games I run", and "Games I follow (no submitted runs)"

A lot of these look really good! The one thing I'd really love is in the New Variable options, under Category Scope, the ability to pick multiple categories rather than just "all" or "single". Having to make a bunch of copies of the "same" variable just to be able to exclude one category from that variable is a bit obtuse.

Hopefully that's what this means?

Looks nice! One small thing - I think there's not quite enough of a distinction between the main category pills and the sub-category pills if the board theme is set more toward transparent, since you don't get the background color difference as strongly. They are bold, but that can be easy to glance over, so a little extra distinction between which ones are the main categories and which ones are subcategories would be nice.

Maybe make the subcategories bar use the same background color as the bar with the filters/rules/submit buttons, so there's a stronger background color difference.

MGC runs will get rejected if a route is found for the exact same group of variables with fewer gravity changes. This thread will keep a list of those old/archived/rejected runs.

One small detail that doesn't seem to have been mentioned yet - At the very bottom of the user profile settings, if you click "More socials" to open the list of extra social media sites, they no longer have hover text like they used to (and like the forums currently do). You have no way of knowing that the Google logo is actually Google Podcasts (vs any other Google service), for example, without opening the dev tools to check the alt text.

If you have a category named "0%" it will show up as the default in the category drop-down when you try to edit a run, instead of the category that run was actually submitted as. Pretty annoying if all you're trying to do is make a quick fix like changing the milliseconds from "091" to "910" (because people still submit ms as "91" when they mean "910" since the old site layout used to automatically put the extra 0 at the end rather than the start).

Yeah, I saw that and have added a wall clip subcategory.

@Habreno Less so of there being specific glitches that only work on tvOS right now, and moreso just being very strange to tell people to submit tvOS as iOS, and also as a precautionary if something is found on just tvOS or just iOS. The game I'd need it for (Manifold Garden) only just recently released, so we're still very early in glitch hunting, and with Apple Arcade being a thing now, many more games will be releasing on all 3 platforms.

Could probably be useful if done in 000 or 001 to get into the rooms with the trees and bypass those puzzles. Maybe 053 to skip the blue side and go directly into the green tree room? Other than those, can't think of too much in the midgame since you're usually carrying cubes that you need, so the doors have to be open. Possibly in the 800s if you're able to clip past those doors.

Could tvOS be added as a platform? It's separate from iOS and games on Apple Arcade are released on all 3 (Mac, iOS, tvOS): https://www.apple.com/apple-arcade/

Only thing that probably shouldn't be allowed is having other people stand at specific spots to place dummies along the course for you to barge toward, or have it as a filter. Some people have been getting crazy low times using stuff like that which isn't possible solo.

All of the social links under avatars are gone, also, hitting "More..." at the bottom of edit profile does nothing now.

I agree with others saying that the day/night theme colors should be set individually in the theme instead of the site trying to guess what color looks good based on the single color you're able to set now. It would be nice to have all the color options back from previously, instead of just one color. Transparency too; it's nearly impossible to actually see any backgrounds with a solid color board in front.

Pretty much this Most people don't do it because it's literally just flying over everything, really boring routes.

F11 isn't a binding in the game, it's an OS binding - you have to use first-party mouse software (Corsair, Logitech, etc.) to hardware change your bindings. Things like AHK (rebinding in software) are disallowed. You can also only rebind one button to one button (i.e. F11 to a mouse button, or Alt to one mouse button and Tab to another, but not Alt-Tab macro to a single mouse button).

Just in case someone else comes across this in the future, as was mentioned when you joined the discord, most of this stuff is pretty decently documented in the guides on the sidebar, specifically the Route Walkthroughs & Info guide: https://www.speedrun.com/Antichamber/guide/2hn41

It'd be super neat if, when submitting a run with a video, you could also put in what time in the video your timer started at, and then anyone viewing the board could select multiple runs and get a viewsync link made up to watch the runs race-style. See how close they all were or whatnot, i.e. https://viewsync.net/watch?v=zxuPMQD5Zdw&t=3.1&v=HEsfOwvpKmQ&t=0&v=mButm-65Ic0&t=0.19&v=4m9f9A7pOhk&t=2.7

The only downside is that they only support YouTube, so you can't have Twitch videos synced with YouTube ones.

[quote=TntMatthew]Mostly just curious as to how WB would be officially defined for the filter. Something which a few of the top runners for ILs ingame have been doing is tilting up and gripping after drops or jumps, to increase speed.

Would this count as WB for the filter? Personally, I think it shouldn't, it's not really WB if you don't land on the same surface you started on, though I can understand if would be disallowed since it is essentially the same thing. [/quote] Yeah, it would be specifically jumping just for the express purpose of gripping back down onto the same surface. If you're already in the air (even for jump obstacles) then it's fine.

[quote=TntMatthew]While I'm here, might as well ask this too: assuming the Adventure level select remains for adv2.0, would the final timing method just skip the intro entirely, starting on whatever the new first level is? [/quote] Likely

[quote=TntMatthew]but on the other hand I'm not sure skipping intro would get the completion slider to 100% on a blank save, so there is a bit of a case against it.[/quote] That would be the only thing against skipping it, though we skip the credits and tutorial in NR, so it may not even matter. It will largely depend on if completing Adventure unlocks something; at that point, we'd have to base it on unlocking whatever that is, but I personally don't think having 100% on the slider is completely necessary for finishing adventure.

Personally, I think that's a server-side issue for consolidating that list by combining similarly named genres, not a user issue. If people want to use those alternative spellings or slightly different genre names for their specific game I think they should be able to.

However, that was just an aside to the main point of the thread. There is no way to apply a filter to all categories except one without that filter showing up multiple times in the filters drop-down (and on every category page, even ones where the filter doesn't apply). It's also not possible to have filters for only certain specific sub-categories - The example being Any% where "Any% No Esc" would be a sub-category and a "Warp" filter for a glitch that requires pressing Esc would apply to all other Any% sub-categories, but not that one category where you can't hit Esc. The workaround I'm having to do right now is setting all of the Any% sub-categories as full misc categories (which means they can't be shown on the same board) and using Warp as sub-categories so it doesn't get listed multiple times in the drop-down. This is just hacky and non-intuitive.
