Hello, I've started running this game recently and was wondering what the community thoughts are on using the exploit where you move the mouse cursor to the edge of the screen in order to ensure the swing plane is reliably kept on a straight line. I was attempting ILs using this but wasn't sure if it is allowed. I didn't see a rule regarding this but it seems it isn't done in current runs.
On the beginner difficulty this isn't necessarily that helpful as the perfect swing plane zone is fairly wide on that setting, but it can improve consistency on higher difficulties significantly. It would also be a PC only exploit.
It technically isn't PC only as I know that some offbrand controllers have wide enough deadzones for practically any input to be dead straight. I have a DS4 that has this, so though it's probably an exploit of the given mechanics there are alternatives for those who use controllers on PC and other consoles.
I'd personally have no complaints with this as the tempo requirements on Pro and Legend still provide plenty of challenge, as well as the difficulties reading greens and hitting the right percentages on Legend. Good luck with your runs!
