Here are some frequently asked questions. More questions will be added with more that I see (or come up with).
Question 1: Can you verify my run?
- no
Question 2: How do seeds work?
- That is dependent on your difficulty. For Recruit, the seed is constant and never changes. For Operative, the seed is constant if you replay, but changes if you load into the mission for the first time. For Legend, the seed is always randomized.
All difficulties can use a set seed, which can be done by going to the custom mission settings and inputting a seed where it asks.
Question 3: What is the engine version, why is it required, and how do I turn it on?
- The engine version tells you which version you are currently playing. This is important for us moderators so we can tell if a run is ancient (i.e., not current update) when submitted. It also helps categorize the leaderboard and makes it easier to archive runs if needed. You can find out how to turn it on here.
Question 4: What happens if the current WR for a category is unbeatable?
- There are two types of "unbeatable" runs: Unbeatable due to an update (1) and unbeatable due to WR being goated (2)
- If a run is unbeatable due to an update, the mods will check to see what change caused it and have the community continue attempting it for a set time (or do it themselves, if applicable). If deemed unbeatable, runs will be rejected up to the fastest run on the update.
- Cry about it.
Question 5: Are runs in the Experimental Version allowed to be submitted?
- Runs on the experimental version (test server) are not allowed due to the mechanics in that server not being set in stone. Anything in the experimental server is likely to change compared to the stable version.
Question 6: How can I record and/or upload my runs?
- Anything can be used to record your runs. What matters is what you upload them to. Your recorded runs must be uploaded to a persistent video-sharing site (such as YouTube). It will most likely be rejected if it doesn't natively embed in a speedrun.com submission. A few exceptions to this are Medal.TV, which can be used to record runs but also submit with, and Streamlabs, which many use to upload their runs to, to submit with.
