Is there a discord server for this game? I found a couple of things and would like to post them in an organised way
Cheers, LoS
I can see a 100% category, but I don't like having an empty leaderboard. So my general consensus is, if there is a run, I will add the board :) So feel free to do a run, and then I'll add the leaderboard!
Good afternoon.
After you collect a certain amount of leaves, you jump higher, so my route tries to get easy and fast leaves to make certain jumps
Most of the discussion about this game is on The LEGO Speedrunning community discord server https://discord.gg/0nCWhvIFSY3nKJDh
Hey AlesIsCool!
Glad you want to learn this game! There is no tutorial (yet). I'm planning on making one in the near future, but we just found new tech a few days ago, so first I want to skiphunt again, otherwise my tutorial would be outdated really quick.
I suggest you join the discord server, all new discoveries etc will be posted there and it's way easier to help.
Thank you for your fast answer! I was just wondering if there are certain differences in the steam version? It seems that I can't do certain tricks... and overall the game behaves really weird, for example in the first level sometimes I'm not able to controll the RC car. Is this a known problem?
bc you always start at the same position when the mission starts you could even cut out the menuing time while running and it will still be accurate even with reloads, bc one the split happened, it switches to the next image. For example: In the roman campaign you could start your run normally (sadly it doesn't start the timer for you), the first image it looks for is the "You win" message. The next one will be the first image of the R2 Mission, which how I remeber it, is always the same. Once this is flaged it just checks for the next "You win" picture. Because it does not check for anything in between, even when you save and reload, the timer wont split. I haven't tested it yet, but theoretically it should work :)
Hey guys! A new Autosplitter was released which uses Image-comparison to decide when to split. It turns out, that you can actually just use a small part of the whole game to decide when to split. Therefore it would be possible to just take a picture of the "You won" message that pops up couple of frames after you win the mission. With this full campaign runs will be way more acurate to time, bc you don't have to look on which frame actually the message appeared...(especially usefull if you want to know if you got a time like 29:59 or 30:00, for example) I post a link to a video where this was actually used to time a Speedrun (Watch at around 2 Minutes)

Hey guys!
I created a new discord server exclusive for settlers IV speedruns where you can post when you get a PB, when you're streaming, if you have new tricks etc :)
I hope you join and we can push the times even further down!
