For mongraals editing course you no longer have to follow the "rules" of the original competition (e.g. edit all walls, use shotgun). The only rule is to finish the map while going through all rooms, but you can go through these rooms how you want.

The reasons for this change are:

  • The original "rules" of the competition are very vague and as far as I can tell it's just editing walls in a certain way which most runs on the leaderboard have actually failed.
  • Most runs on the leaderboard (including the current 2:48 wr) failed the original "rules". for example the world record didn't use the shotgun for the cubes and didn't use boxes to get past the gunners in the last room which appeared in mongraals video.

If you have any concerns please reply in this thread.

A new minigolf map has been added in the latest version (0.8.9.0) called Island

Just a note that using keyboard is faster because for some reason you move about 2x faster when moving diagonally on keyboard. e.g. holding W+A, W+D, S+A and S+D. This does not work on a controllers d-pad, only keyboard.

Watering hole should be called Waterhole

'Final time of 0 seconds on all levels: Due to the way the timer started on each level, it was possible to avoid its activation. Now the timer starts a bit earlier before touching the ground for the first time.'

Please reset all the IL leaderboards :)

I have some name suggestions for some of the categories so they are more clear & look better.

'2nd Phase%' changed to 'Top 50' '3rd Phase%' changed to 'Top 10' 'Vs CPU 2nd Phase%' changed to 'CPU Top 50' 'Vs CPU 3rd Phase%' changed to 'CPU Top 10' 'Vs CPU Win%' changed to 'CPU Win%'

since you can let the kid die, I think there should be 2 subcategories for Fastest Death: 'You Died' and 'Kid Died'

  1. Level leaderboard, categories for each map would be good. (The Beach, Chalk Cliffs, The Mine. etc..)
  2. Change the release date of the game to 28 June, 2016 (Edit Game > Info)
  3. Rules for each category. so any% would be: Timer starts when you move Timer ends when you collect the final truffle

https://www.speedrun.com/tu was added to the website a while ago, however the game has already been added before then: https://www.speedrun.com/tower

How can this be allowed? A hacker destroyed their bed, so is hacking allowed? Because that is beyond stupid, and also breaks the Hypixel server rules. How do you know if the wr holder didn't plan the hacker to break their bed?

EDIT: Even the 'Kills' rules state that hacking is not allowed, so how come it's allowed in Bed Destroyed?

Can the rules be changed to: Run starts when you load into the game. Run ends when you reach the goal.

If you aren't in the discord, there is now a Category Extensions leaderboard. https://www.speedrun.com/Slime_Rancher_Category_Extensions

instead of it being a separate category (any%), it could be a subcategory. so any% would have 2 subcategories, lights on and lights off. then you could add the same for laser city and the other chapters it would look a little more neat and gives the board more space for categories

I think the IL's should be timed in real time from when you start moving to avoid 0s times. also the devs are going to be re-working the timer to stop 0 seconds, but are also adding a level leaderboard in-game. so when the game has the leaderboards the IL's should be removed.

An idea for a fun set of runs which isn't as long as any%. The run is set on a game save which already has all the tracks unlock (at least all the tracks in the category) and you have to complete all of the tracks in a certain difficulty. The tracks can be completed in any order as long as all of them are completed. DLC's should be in a separate subcategory.

The stadium and university of trials tracks could also be included. Skill games probably shouldn't since most of them have no end.

example categories: NG+ All Beginner Tracks NG+ All Easy Tracks NG+ All Medium Tracks NG+ All Hard Tracks NG+ All Extreme Tracks NG+ All Ninja Tracks NG+ All University of Trials Tracks NG+ All Stadium Tracks

  • subcategories for No DLC and DLC

Someone has already done a run of all hard tracks:

They have not been approved for over 30 days

Chester's feed yourself (no ingredients) run was approved even tho they didn't start at the 'teleport to noob' starting location.

Does that mean we can start wherever we like?

Are the mods going to set up a forager speedrunning discord?

Add Event Horizon, it's a new ball race map that released a week ago.

United KingdomThePigKing5 years ago

This has been brought up, but now we have new mods, this can be sorted.

Most of the runs on the leaderboard are invalid due to level changes (mostly level 9).

These are the skipless runs that need to be removed: kubalyarn, ThePigKing (rip), boshy, bluey, sizzyl

connor's skip run is also outdated.

Not sure if any of the level speedruns are outdated, I don't think they should be.
