Hey. Since the game is using in-game timer like other doom games i think it should be updated to rules that you have to complete the run without loading a save or restarting level because it also loads in-game time from the save. Just for future runners so that they don't load levels after dying and get great times without even realizing.

Also maybe add both in-game time and Real time in board

Yea I agree it needs a little clean up for the rules. I'm always a fan of single segment IGT runs but having an RTA option too can make the run a bit more accessible starting out. I'd kinda like to mess with adding Sentinel difficulty (since it would be the UV-speed equivalent to doom) and possibly a 100%.

Yeah. Extra categories would be cool.

In my opinion RTA is always better than in-game time except when there are inconsistent loading screen that can make a big difference throughout run. Not sure how loading screens are in this game, but if they are consistent then RTA could be way to go (like doom unity ports leaderboard). In-game timing is very inaccurate obviously when players have same time even if it's 10.01 or 10.99 and in 16 map game that adds up almost 16 seconds difference at best in RTA while IGT is the same. IF we decide to use RTA then IGT time could be just decoration in board or removed completely and added in runners comment or something.

Also not sure if Thursday runs this game or has knowledge about runs, but i offer myself to become a mod of this game so i can update rules and categories etc. when needed.

I sent him a message about that too. I've not really tested the loading screens nor know if GZdoom keeps an actual internal value and just rounds what it displays. I know OG doom on something like DSDA or crispy doom keeps a real value added of IGT throughout the run. So if you have a 20.11 map 1 and a 20.97 map 2 it will display a 20s on each level but the total should be a 41 as opposed to a 40s flat.
