It's stated in the rules that if I get shot down before I destroy the island the run is not valid. If I'm trying to skip the blow up animation and the bonus stage afterwards I can dive (or get shot and crash in the water) shortly before the island is destroyed and I don't get a game over. Here is an example: Would this run be considered valid? Is this tactic allowed to skip time for the red island category?
I understand your doubts because I had them myself when I tried to complete the "red island" category. This rule isn't very clear so I just survived before the islands exploded. In my opinion, this rule needs to be changed. Under no circumstances can you die and destroy the island at the same time. Neither before the torpedo launch nor after. You can't get hit before the island explodes. At the moment it looks like (as shown in the video) that you launched the torpedo before you were hit. But that's also a double K.O., so it's a paradox. I'm just a regular mod for a short time and it's worth waiting for a review of a super mod. For me it should be forbidden.
