1. How do you track the stopwatch? Do you count frames or use a real life clock? I’m only asking because some times I get are a bit strange and shouldn’t be possible on 60fps. (The comment below me got a 2.34, which is impossible since a 140 frame run would net a 2.3333333 and 141 frame run would net a 2.35.) although I’m not the smartest person when it comes to this and maybe I’m missing something idk.
2. this might be a bit of a stretch, but would it be possible to add a replay system like trackmania has? Like a file that stores a player’s location or movements that can be replayed and compared with other replays. If you do want to add this we could move to discord and talk about this further.
1) It should be counting frames, not entirely sure how a 2.34 is possible either since that would require 140.5 frames. I'll look into my timer code to make sure there isn't a bug somewhere.
2) Can you expand on what you mean here? The basic functionality of a ghost character to race against wouldn't be hard to implement, the challenging part would be saving and loading the files. I'd either have to invest in a server and learn network code or I'd have to ask people to manually save and upload files, which runs the risk of viruses. It's a good idea, I just have to think of exactly how I'd do it.
I'm not an expert on the technicalities of server code, so I can't really give any technical input, but I know Trackmania has a really simple method of storing replays. As for investing in a server, I don't know if that's a good idea because I'm pretty much the only person speedrunning this game at this point lol

i did it holy
sub 60s
I DID IT FINALLY
also, the no more jumping off of spawn, what exactly was that for?
just a random question, for the falling platforms on level 10, does the horizontal movement affect the player?
oh, im not sure if i said this, but lower fps makes the ghost slower?
Got WR on all level
got a world record of 4.7 on a level!
I got WR on level 5
Anyone here in 2025 :D
this is my sub account of yes13.
Did something happen to your main account?
no, its just for my school device to make it easier
and also, the respawn as ghost glitch isnt gone
but its way harder to do
DAMN
im at like a 60.8ish time at school
lol
got a sub-7 time on lvl 6
bruh
whats the best time on level 6
and 12
does anybody have a better time on lvl 4 then 4.39?
According to speedrun.com, the fasted time for level 4 (with video proof is 4.27)
A 4.25 is listed but (to my knowledge) does not have any video proof
oh ok
A few months hiatus and i'm somehow a 100x better than i was before? idk
got a new computer so i dont have my old save file but my pb is 59.9
Congrats! You're the second person to break the 60 second line for sum of best! The WR (according to speedrun.com) is currently 59.8
It's been 4 months but i got a new best on a level by a single frame
More questions! Lol.

Thanks for reading!
