Rule Changes for May 1st
A few minor rule changes and clarifications from the previous rules, but important ones. And a newly approved mod, now available for speedrunning.
The rule changes will go into effect May 1st, and all runs submitted on or after that date will be verified accordingly.
First update: Mod Requirement
The most important change to those that run mods. Previously, use of Speedrun Mod Checker was suggested as it greatly helps verifiers and runners ensure only approved mods were used, it is now required to be used if any mods are installed.
If any mods are used, it is required that you include “Speedrun Mod Checker” for ease of verification, and to not be required to show settings before each run: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3007986429
Second update: Map Settings
Clarification added to unapproved Map Themes, and an image with examples of approved layouts has been included.
Settings are split into variables on the board. Currently acceptable Map Settings are: Normal (City, Country, Alpine), Autumn, Turbo, Lake, North Pole. All settings not listed are not valid for speedrunning.
