Professional prove. you get my support.

1st section is the prove of the inconstant speed of "kid"(sorry I forget his name) in an extreme situation.
So far as I know, this situation only appears at Hyper jump + normal jump(old system only appears at extreme normal jump) or Hyper jump + a left-to-right jump(o-o-o)
Actually, when the new system come, a lot of people complain about the new system "already lose the feeling of the jumps","shitty hypers","completely playing a new game", I guess it has been solved.

***And also, some people complained about the inconstant speed of the same reverse hyper jump, could this get further proved or rejected?


2nd section is the prove of how a bug jump is been generate.
I thought this have been solved, but seems I was wrong....
This have been discuss a long time. I remembered I have proved it long time ago, but whatever..
if you want to see more prove, click(huge image size!! warning!!!
【2.2】I add a note makes a left-to-right jump, also keep the distance to x2.04.


firstly, only 3 note with 1/2 time.



then, 3 note with 1/4 time.



then, 5 note with 1/4 time.


last, 10 note with 1/8 time.(yes i am trolling)

(I cannot set this in a proper distance. maybe is my mouse problem?)


See the difference? Yes, this is definitely not the problem about "frame" at all. This is just a bug. Peppy fixed the bug jump in some way we dont know, but the bug still there.
Extra?




with extreme SV(3.6)

I think we don't need 3rd section, because this is personal biased. Some people really like this kind of pattern as I know, and they think this not affect their performance at all.

Sorry if I pointed out something well known, I'm not that old into CtB mapping and didn't followed discutions about technical problems in ctb since the hyper update (I just encountered all these issues when I tried to map with this build). But I know this issue was happening in older builds, and gives serious questions about the fix of the hyper trigger distance. I understand frames can bring some irregularities but not that much (only from 1/1 to 1/2 it's almost half a circle ! A frame issue should only affect a bunch of pixels, am I wrong ?).

No personnal opinion here. This section show how the ryuuta slides away when you press a bit too long the key. I used 1/4 hyper cause the effect is greatly increased with fast hyperdashes. On 1/8, 1/16 it's even harder to get the fruit and stand in the same position. I used 3.3 to show a way I've found to give more timing to the player but it breaks the pattern and makes it ugly.

For the personnal preference, the question isn't "Like it or not ?" but "1/4 hypers should be allowed in CtB mapping ?" I think yes, why not ? Well used they add new patterns and creativity. But I agree that well spammed they're a pain in the *ss. If you want to allow them, they need a fix cause they're pretty ugly to map if you wants to keep a decent difficulty.

eldnl wrote:

Oh I see, so you can't put hard left-to-right jumps?
I mean, like this map.
If that's the point, then this should be fixed.
Yes, the second section is a clue of why I think they doesn't need hyperdash cause the frames shouldn't affect that much the ryuuta. First section is a way do to them but you'll need 3 hits starting with an hyperdash. Well, forcing the mapper to use an hyperdash to let him put a hard jump doesn't really make sense.

That is I talked into one of the Chinese Ctb thread if I am not wrong, but that seems old and out of date since the new hyper systems here. I just want to share something I already known. Apologize about it.

I think this is speed based. hyperdash ends only when the rhythm is there(kid touch the hole note, I guess), not when you touch the note. If the speed of the jump is too fast, high speed hyperdash will "slip" you away just like your map stats, that is because some little "dash" haven't being used up. When you end the jump at a later timing, I mean just a little late, the extremely high speed will definitely leads you to the wrong place.
I personally think that is not a big thing that needs to be fixed. There is some people willing to play this kind of trolling pattern, and they can catch it well. Then why we need to forbid it? Or take a step back, if this must be fixed, then how should this be fixed? increase the allowance for it? would it affect other jumps?

This is not the only hyper-trolling pattern. At the beginning, I was highly against them, think this was broke the flow of the whole map, and should be nuked. But now, since almost everybody like them, I have no ideas already.. After all this should be played by players, not mappers. So I think if this not flood, this will be ok to me.

I don't see it is too "ugly" in fact.. It is good isnt it? XD
ok back to topic, it is impossible to make this pattern smooth. if you really needs to add this pattern, seriously I think your changes is good, or maybe reduce the hyperdash speed will work.
eldnl
I'm not sure but this is probably an example for a 1/4 jumpy map ... for me, plays very well.

Keep dreaming if you really think peppy is going to care about CTB again. Needless to say about this very thread.

eldnl: Verdisphena's diffs are shit now with this behaviour, so are TAG4. But since this kind of mapping is minority, none cares.
He did a good job in reducing mapping possibilities for CtB I have to admit.

peppy: if you just passed by to the last post of this thread, just fix this kind of patterns and we're ok (I know you won't but just saying <3)



Also, eldnl, your map doesn't have the kind of patterns I just showed above, so it doesn't count. As CtB mappers, we now have to prevent that kind of patterns (and oh boy are we reducing ourselves with that limitation) since they're 100% luck depending, just like the old pixels he wanted to fix.

I put my map for 1/4 jumps so... anyways, you're right, Rainbow Dash map is the perfect example, is not lucky based, nothing is lucky based, but you need to catch the perfect timing to do them.

So basically old pixels were not luck based since you needed to have a perfect timing in order to catch them.

OK.

OK.
You're misunderstanding, pixel jumps were technically impossible to catch, but this kind of jump are technically possible, but hard as hell.

They were possible to catch, but only if you were lucky enough. Withouth any tricks whatsoever I was able to catch the 40 combo of Cirno's Perfect Math Class TAG4 MANY times, and I felt that the timing in those ocassions was splendid, not too soon neither too late, but since it was too hard for someone to catch it in a skill based way, a hyperdash was added (and I totally support that). There are hundreds of other examples in which hyperdashes were added in unnecesary places (and i'm not saying I dislike the extra hyperdashes, just stating that they were unnecesary because you didn't need them in order to catch the pixels) because it was "too lucky based". You can't deny this as it's a fact, luck DOES exist here.

Also the "pixel" term refers to a jump on which by a margin of some pixels IS actually possible, but just too hard for a human to do correctly in a skill based manner.
eldnl
:facepalm:

you're misunderstanding again, that's why I said technically ... well I guess we need to stop now.
VelperK
We can agree on that both of these situations were/are possible but too luck-based and the later I just stated needs to be fixed ASAP, ok?

Seems this kind of pattern makes me annoyed , cus i've maked simmiliar pattern like that in the past & now it's completely make my old map almost UNcatchable cuz of the hyper changes >:(

This is related to section 3 of the demo map (In boku boku case those are 1/2 due to bpm but it equals 1/4 of most maps with decent bpms) and yes this is a good example of something wich will be used a lot in CtB mapping and is completly ruined by the new hypers. I think these kind of patterns are not meant to be hard in CtB mapping imo they're meant to play with your reading abilities, that's why old hypers fits so well in those situations. They allow you to use patterns wich calls the reading skill of the player without increasing the timing difficulty, it gives coherence and allows you to balance your map as you wish. I want to add that one of my map has been affected by this (Oriens) and I think it is actually the reason why there's not so many FCs/SSs on it (Those 1/4 sliders are too random if you want to keep a good accuracy, so most people get pissed of it and ignore it. Randomly missing droplets or combo isn't fun for anyone and I really didn't designed to be this way when I mapped it).

My recent mapping experiences with this build shows me that if you want to keep them smooth to play you have to affect the pattern even at a small hyperdash distance, cause when they're integrated in a whole map it's again very different than just showing the case in a demo map.
Here's one of these said experience : https://osu.ppy.sh/b/247418 @ 01:14:602 (7,1,2,3) -
The original pattern was like this I had to modify it to this for the only reason the hyperdashes was dizzy, so I lost in map design and readability to gain timing on hyperdashes, and I have no other solutions at the moment.

eldnl wrote:

Yes, for a 140 bpm song they're not so dizzy, do it with +200 bpm songs this will leads the player to countless stupid jumps wich should only call the reading skill of the player not a perfect timing skill.

About post hyperdash jumps you're both right. Velperk is right cause yes, luck is involved since it require perfect timing (when you miss it feels impossible and when you catch it feels too easy, I don't know if i'm the only one feeling this when I play them) and eldnl is right too cause a frame issue could or not be involved in an already timed jump. Difference is that you have more chances to catch the new ones than the old ones, cause there isn't any frame issues in the new build (In the old build even if irl you had the perfect timing the frame issue in the game could makes you miss, so it's an addition).

I think the same about those jumps they should be banned from CtB mapping they pretty much makes no sense in term of mapping. Basically you make some hypers followed by a jump and the result for this pattern is that the hardest jump is the non hyper'd one ? And it's actually the way to make the hardest jumps of the game ? This makes no sense, the hardest jump of the game should be doable out of all hyperdash'd pattern in order to permit mappers to balance their maps in term of difficulty. So yes, this will certainly go for an unrankable pattern if the jump is too big and again remove something we could use to make maps.

I sadly know how this is going to lead to nothing, but this discution have to exist at least to inform mappers about those issues, discuss about them and try to find ways to fix by modifying patterns. Plus in a long term if many mappers are having problems with those issues maybe something will change one day.
You know, in a first time I just ignored the build and kept mapping under the old build and then I got censored when I linked the old build in the forum, so for me the only way to share my maps the way they are supposed to be played is just "not allowed" with no other words wich could stand for a reason. So yes I'm fiighting back for this, cause I love mapping and CtB.
peppy
No pattern should be "banned". I don't mind making post-hyperdash more lenient, but this may cause complains about other maps becoming too easy as a result (which was the case during testing).

Also avoid the shit statements about me not caring about stuff. Oh wait, this is VelperK. Nevermind.

Well, I think that you could make the catcher reach the destination a bit faster, because now I think we only have like 5ms or even less for edge-to-edge hyperjumps (the time between arriving at destination fruit before it actually hits the plate). Actually, maybe it is time to use the OD difficulty setting of map to determine this leeway time, what do you think? So lower OD would mean more time before you arrive under destination fruit (therefore, faster hyperdash speed).

Another important thing that should be discussed is hyperdash after hyperdash in changed direction.
Example:
.(3)
         .(2)
.(1)

Imagine catching fruit 1 and holding shift+right heading to fruit 2. As I have said, you have around 5ms time to change to left direction after reaching under fruit 2. Most often, you will still be holding right arrow key after catching fruit 2, and it would cause you to hyperdash in wrong direction. Since hyperdash speed is too high, this will mean that you will miss fruit 3.
I would propose that the game shouldn't allow hyperdashing in wrong direction OR as I have previously said, increase the hyperdash speed to allow more reaction time.

xDD

so there is nothing that you can do?
peppy
I thought I already stopped hyperdashing in the wrong direction. If not, this is a definite change that can be made.

And what about the second section ? Don't we have a chance here to get more difficult non hypered jumps ? This could counter balance the difficulty (Making hyperdashes easier only focusing in reading skill of the player and normal jumps harder focusing on the timing skill of the player, so mappers can choose on what they want to play on their maps like it was the case.)

About the hyperdash going to the wrong direction (at least it seems like it still in hyperdash state since the timing is too small), it's basically the "slipping effect" if you press a bit too long the ryuuta slips away wich actually cause post hyper jumps being extremly hard (compared to the other jumps) depending on timeline/bpm used for the pattern.

I would happily test the results of such experimentation in the osu!test build, if you decide to let users see if the changes fit them or not.

I'm sure I won't be the only one tho.
