Because I am me, I am usually less satisfied unless I get to see the exact time of a speedrun, by listing the time in milliseconds. Do the in-game timers list the time in milliseconds, because then you could add them up to determine the true time of your run. Plot twist, I found out that my 3:34 run is actually 3:35.416 for in game time. according to the math where I add all IL times by looking at the very last frame of the level before the exit switch. Real time would be 3:43.028. I'd like my times to get changed to those maybe. The way I am, I'm just a super technical guy, so you get to hear me whine about not seeing the milliseconds in runs. It'd be cool to see, but may be hard or tedious to find out.

Extra Info : 35 frames in a second in the Doom Engine, so 1 frame would be 0.028 seconds, yadda yadda yadda just take 1, divide by 35 multiply by whatever many frames, you get the point.

So today I was doing some experimenting on what was the perfect speedrun for Chex Quest 1 with and without monsters. I did the entire first episode on No-Monsters, Non-SS with minimum clippage (Not TAS).

Difference between No-M and UV-speed. E1M1 : Nothing E1M2 : Door at teleport can rarely open by enemy. -1 seconds. E1M3 : 3 doors have possibility of opening. -3 sec. +3 for shootery in map. 0 overall. E1M4 : 1 door can open rarely. -1 seconds. -1 overall E1M5 +1 second for Flembrane. +1 for monsters in the way. +2 overall.

Times No-M: E1M1 0:01 E1M2 0:55 E1M3 1:21 E1M4 0:50 E1M5 0:20 Overall No-M 3:30 (includes extra frames after number in experiment run)

Times UV-S: E1M1 0:01 E1M2 0:54 E1M3 1:21 E1M4 0:49 E1M5 0:22 Overall UV-S 3:30 (includes extra frames after number in experiment run).

The most perfect UV-Speed run that we can expect is 3:30. Any run lower would be extremely close to impossible in movement and luck combined. Much lower and it definetely means TAS. The TAS run for CQ1 is 3:08. Though that is actually the perfect run, the perfect run (that we can expect) for human skill is 3:30. Thanks for reading.
