@Ama
hm, how does syncing to race time help this?
Ama
2020-12-09 11:35:08Z
bonus and penalty tiles
Learath2
2020-12-09 11:35:17Z
Ooh, that’s clever
Ama
2020-12-09 11:35:27Z
change the time and envelopes sync to switches pretty much
Learath2
2020-12-09 11:35:52Z
Alas it’s a hack. Maybe we can add tiles to help with envelopes?

i mean it worked before so i had this idea 5 years ago when i stopped playing ddnet
11:36
and i tried to map it in janurary and i was just sad it didnt work anymore

Penalty and bonus tiles change your time, so this can’t really be used in a map tho, no?
Ama
2020-12-09 11:37:23Z
it can in team
Learath2
2020-12-09 11:37:44Z
How do you fix the time later to get the correct rank?
Ama
2020-12-09 11:37:45Z
so dummy maps are perfectly for this
11:37
you take away as much as you added XD
11:38
and make it so you can do the part just once
Learath2
2020-12-09 11:38:22Z
So you need to make sure they cross every bonus and penalty you add
Ama
2020-12-09 11:38:41Z
yes but thats just normal parts really XD
Learath2
2020-12-09 11:39:10Z
Eh, never be sure about these things, Konsti is very crafty ;P
Ama
2020-12-09 11:39:27Z
i know you must be very careful and test the parts XD

this sounds too much like a hack to me
14:04
time penalty tiles are a huge hack that shouldn't be used by normal maps: they distort the otherwise pretty comparable ranks
14:05
stuff like the DDNet's bot command just break with them unless you add special handling for these maps
Ama
2020-12-09 14:25:33Z
i would make the times compareable in my map
14:25
because everything you put on can be reversed with bonus tiles
louis
2020-12-09 14:25:54Z
headbot did that with geometry dash map
Ama
2020-12-09 14:27:03Z
dont know why you wouldnt let it be an option to choose from
14:28
in the demo i worked only with 2 envelopes
14:28
you can make as many as you like
