Ctrl+V rounding error [Resolved]

Normally, this would be super minor, but the AImod keeps on bitching about it, so bug report:

When you copy/paste a group of notes, all their relative millisecond values are kept the same. However, the beats they're placed on sometimes get rounded differently leading to some notes being off by +/- 1ms with respect to their new home. AImod pesters us about this.

It would be handy if on pasting, the pasted notes were automatically snapped.

IMO this could cause some problems as it's unexpected behaviour.

How about a special paste which snaps, instead of adding this ability to the normal paste? Ctrl-Shift-V?

I am tempted to just increase AIMod's tolerance by 1ms, which will fix this problem. 1ms is not perceivable to the human ear, so shouldn't have a negative effect on gameplay anyways. Thoughts?

Use fractions for timings? =]

Do you read?

It *could* still compound if you do lots of copy/pasting, but I guess AImod would catch that.

Well it's not permissible to the human ear, yes, but... if you're playing a 10 overalldiff map that might just spell +100% 100s

At overall difficulty 10, this would result in at most 2.4% chance of a 300 becoming a 100. It would change the ratio of 300s to 100s by 1.6%. This is acceptable, and a much larger variable is introduced by the possibility of lag, input latency and time calculation accuracy.

Ah, only 2.4%? My rough estimation of the timeframe must be inaccurate, then...
