They aren't split because I am lazy - will work on moving them over now

Alright Free Play is now a category, I wouldn't have argued it being different enough from Any% to warrant being one but if there's a run for it may as well have it be a category, but who knows if new things will be found in this future for Free Play specifically, or it can at least stay as Any% but with some more convenient aspects to it.

Yo, sorry it took a bit but I've added IL leaderboards for moonjump and no moonjump categories. :)

Yo, added "No Moonjump" and "Moonjump" as sub-categories for Any%, 100% and all Individual Years, so feel free to submit that run and let me know if I didn't update any correctly. This really should have been a thing since the discovery, idk why it took me this long to get it done lmao, separating based on the glitch probably works better than doing it by DS/PSP to let PSP runners do no moonjump as well. :)

For rule consistency across both full game and IL runs, RetroArch should stay banned in my opinion. There are plenty of other options of ways to play this game, so I hope you enjoy learning it.

With the gate skip, when going to the right you want to use the lamp that's just underneath the platform and try to wedge yourself on it. The hitbox for it is kinda weird so you'll probably end up falling down sometimes when it looks like you should land on it.

When doing a double jump attack you can press two character swap buttons (L/R) in quick succession in order to swap out and turn back into your character to cancel the end lag.

Hopefully this helped, if you need more help I'd recommend joining the LEGO Speedrunning Discord, since you will normally get a response pretty quick, and it's easier to explain things than in src forum posts.

As far as I'm aware, there are not cheat codes in this game, however if somebody else wishes to correct me please do.

They were deleted due to inactivity.

I agree, Year 3 doesn't even end with a boss so timing is especially jank. The main issue I find with this is that there is now no way to get the correct times for any previous runs, especially as the ones with video for Year 1 have a small delay going there, or don't end the chapter at all.

Yeah doing a character swap should unload the door when the screen glitches out. Another thing with that trick is that you can't character swap again from respawning to clipping through the door, so do your best to avoid swapping to R2/C-3PO. What you've described is correct so hopefully you'll be able to get the trick down.

Do a run of it, if it's a reasonable category it will be put under the "pending" tab on the leaderboards. Once 3 or more people have done runs it will be on the main boards (no longer in pending). If anything I said there is wrong please correct me also.

Unless you plan to, it is highly unlikely that anyone would run this category unless it was for meme purposes, as the route would be almost entirely the Dino sub area in cascade, therefore I'm sure this is very unlikely to get accepted as a ce.

Well I guess this isn't necessary anymore... This is mostly addressed to Fredsterface: if you think you'll go really inactive again or would rather just step away from being mod, feel free to move me up there (I give reasons in my first post if you've not read that) and if you continue as mod, I guess you should probably join the discord if you haven't already.

Alright thank you, I'll get a run done as soon as I can

Hey all, I doubt that this is the best way to go about requesting mod but idk where else would be better to go. The current only moderator of this game hasn't been on src in over 7 months, so no one can submit any runs to this game and I imagine there are probably some things in the verification queue from over that time, I can't contact him via discord as that is not listed under his src profile also. Whilst I do not run the game yet (I will if I become moderator), I currently am a mod of Lego Batman: The Videogame (DS) and Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (DS), so I have some experience with this. I can add new categories to make the leaderboards much more appealing, with things that the current leaderboard lacks, such as ILs and Free Play.

Again, this may not be the best place to request for mod, so if there's a better way to do that please say, I hope that I'm able to moderate for this community.

Whilst I wouldn't be opposed to an IGT category, it probably isn't different enough from RTA to warrant it. Maybe if someone found that IGT is more reliable for some reason then I guess it would work as a category.

IL's too perhaps? I think if we had both of these it would attract a lot more people into running the game.

Oof good luck, I can try retiming some of them if you need any help with that mammoth task. I've retimed my Sewers, Arctic World and Botanical Gardens so far. The first 2 were the same as what I finished with but Botanical Gardens was a 6:24. I'm pretty sure my timing is reliable, but if you wanna just leave it with yourself, feel free to retime any.

Oh sorry, I think I've looked before and there were none so I'd just assumed it had been kept that way.
