Hello. I've been watching beo's Lava Tower WR (congrats by the way), and the skip at the end really steps on the wrong foot for me. At the end, he wall-hops on the side of the pillar to make it onto the platform leading to the exit. In my opinion, I think its a glitch to hop off the pillar, assuming that there 2 walls connecting to allow you to do so. Not intended in any means. It brings up another question, should wall-hugging be counted as glitch? I get that the walking on the Flood Island wire isn't a wall-hug, but say, the wall-hug in Gloomy Manor, or the wall-hug in Northern Workshop. Neither those 2 maps provide any type of platform to walk on, just only when you bring a wall-hug into the matter. Should wall-hugging and hopping really be allowed in Glitchless%?
Hi. Last night I verified his record seeing the wall hop. The glitches we’ve mentioned before not allowed were speed glitching, and clipping. In the past, wall hugging and wall jumping were not allowed. However, upon further discussion by moderators, this is a Roblox wide trick commonly used by speed runners and general obby players alike. While no, this is not intended by the creator of the game, we don’t consider this a game breaking “glitch” like clipping or speed glitching. Considering the fact also it’s just flicking your mouse. Feel free to further discuss if you really think this is an issue, and we’ll continue to look over it. Good luck. 🙂
The only problem I have with this is that it is near impossible for mobile players to do due to a lack of shift lock (or at least a lot harder if they use 1st person) I think a possible solution to this could be the implementation of a separate category for mobile players on maps where tricks like wall hopping are used
Henlo this is your local FE2 speedrunning mod Nolyswag and I'd just like to recommend for people to use velocity display during runs to maximize the odds of your run being verified (it just helps confirm that your run is legit).
