HOW TO USE:

• Open LiveSplits
• Right click on it and selected "Edit Splits..."
• In "Game Name:" type in Door Kickers: Action Squad.
• Click the "Activate" button.

To add it to existing splits, simply load them in, edit, and activate.

IMPORTANT:

• It only tracks Real Time on the LiveSplits timers, but you can find IL in-game mission times in the log file (more on that later).
• When a timer has completed, it must be manually reset for the autosplitter to do its job. You can Right click on LiveSplits, select Settings, and set a hotkey!
• It does NOT check what missions you are running. You will still need to set up your own splits for each chapter/full game run. This is intentional so missions can be run in any order.

CATEGORY SETTINGS: While editing your splits, next to the Activate/Deactivate button is a Settings button. There are two options at the top that can be toggled depending on the category you're running.

Split whenever a level is completed (3 star not required)

• Checked: For Fresh and Leveled runs. The splits advance on mission complete.
• Unchecked: For 3 star runs. The split will only advance if all hostages are saved. (It accounts for mission 6.11 "The Express" where 3 star loses 1 hostage who turns into a zombie.)

Reset on mission restart or fail

• Checked: For individual level runs
• If a mission is started while the timer is running, it starts the timer over.
• If the mission fail splash occurs, the timer will reset to 0 and wait.
• Remember to reset the timer between successful attempts!

THE LOG In your LiveSplits folder you will find DKAS_ILTimes (shows up after completing 1 mission with the autosplitter active). It records the results of each mission using in-game time. This is how it records the runs:

New run started! 1-04: MISSION SUCCESS at 00:24.616 (Hostages: 0/0, Arrest Targets: 0/0) New run started! 5-10: MISSION SUCCESS at 00:08.117 (Hostages: 15/19, Arrest Targets: 0/0) New run started! 1-01: MISSION SUCCESS at 00:14.817 (Hostages: 5/5, Arrest Targets: 0/0)

In-game time and real time for IL's should only differ if the mission had slow-mo rooms, which add ~1.5s per slow-mo (can vary by mission).

Big thank you to Ero on the Speedrun Tool Development discord for putting this together!

The Autosplitter is currently down, likely because of the 1.2.11 Professionals Abroad.

The good news is individual levels don't need it (the update added 2 milliseconds to mission time). It also isn't critical for full game categories because only a running timer is required (a manual start and stop press).

I'll be talking to the creator and see if we can get a working autosplit again.

Autosplitter is up and running again. Thanks Ero!
