Hey all again, sorry to post another question so quickly after my last one but something just came up and I was worried if it invalidated my runs or not.
Over the last few months of practice/doing runs I broke my PS3 controller's L1 from power boosting to full bar. In an effort to save my second and last controller from breaking with the hammering I was giving it, I started using a turbo button for some of my full-bar boosts.
Recently, based on someone asking me if my run(s) were TAS, it got me thinking, does turbo button usage count as TAS? And if so, are my previous runs now invalidated?
If they are, I'm happy to remove the offending runs and redo them sans-Turbo Button. But I thought I'd reach out to this community and its moderators to see if Turbo Button usage does indeed count as TAS or if they invalidate anthing.
Again, thanks all for the previous replies and continued moderation. Have a good day. :)
Yes, under the general site rules (https://www.speedrun.com/knowledgebase/site-rules), turbo controllers are banned by default unless specified by the rules of the game. Currently there are no rules in place to allow turbo controllers for this game.
Well that explains the decent time improvements. Any runs using a turbo controller should be removed.
So its been 2 weeks, what runs have been done with a turbo controller and need to be removed?
