I was thinking of this because sometimes a map might have a a 2x slider or section right after a spinner and it may not work to put a warning right between the end and the slider. Also, some cool effects could be made with being able to see an SB over a spinner. This could obviously lead to some cases where it's impossible to see the spinner though. And btw there would be a toggle on the SB items to determine if the mapper wants it over the spinner.

Skin the spinner to be transparent?

I think if we were able to SB over any hitobjects there would be potential for some cool stuff.

Won't work. Everything goes black behind the spinner (although a toggle for that may appear in the future). I don't think that would have the effect that he wants, though.

In the specific case described, I think it would make just as much sense to storyboard in the 2X warning before the spinner. Also, there's room for a bit of creativity by skinning the spinner's "spin," "clear," and approach circle sprites.

It could be fun, but I just see waaay too much potential for headaches there, even in the best cases.
eee

It can make this possible (for the tutorial)


But I think it'd probably get too out of hand at times, hitcircle/slider tricks >:D
I'm kinda supporting this :/

Hey, this is what beatmap moderation is for.

Bastard, making me waste my 7000'th post on a support issue. The toggle already exists; it was created so I could use it in the OEWY skin, remember?

ini toggles won't work on map-specific skins.

Can't you add them under [general] in the .osu file?

While making a transparent spinner would work well for some maps, as to see the story still moving along, some maps may only need to make a transparent spinner for one spinner as to see one warning of one 2x slider when there are 4 other spinners in the map, and easier difficulties. Well it is nice you can do that for maps that use hardcore SBing, making a transparent spinner seems a little over the top when you need it once.

That being said, I still wish for this feature to be implemented, besides over other hit objects would be awesome as well.

How about you fix the map where you don't have notes right after a spinner or don't have the non-obvious 2x slider section which seems to NEED a warning?

does that actually work? I was under the impression that it does not. For structural reasons. The "display circle overlays above number" toggle had to be added in specifically for map-specific skins, and that would have been redundant if ini toggles worked that way.

imo all 2x slider sections need warnings

Sped up sections should be natural or not exist in a map except for stupid challenges.

This would be great, but I highly doubt it will be implemented. I'd love to be able to storyboard Battler and Beatrice having their arguments as the spinner span in one of my maps. Since I need as much time as I can salvage to finish the story in two minutes orz

+8999 support.

...I tried this with the LayeredHitSounds: 0 and it didn't work, unfortunately ._. darn!

This would be really convenient in some situations.

SBing over hitobjects/gameplay elements is one of those things that I would really like to be able to use despite the horrible potential for abuse.
awp
People are welcome to abuse the feature on their own time. It's not like anything disruptive to gameplay is going to get ranked, anyhow.

I totally suport.

I would imagine the lyrics for a spinner (if any) would be so insignificant it wouldn't need to be shown.

Or are you doingitwrong?
Actually, I take that back. I think it'd look nicer if the lyrics stayed.

I really don't like that you bumps these. Just wait till we get more discussion comments in the spreadsheet.

I think this is a terrible idea, but I guess bad SBs could be modded out.

This is kinda like being able to display SB over all objects. (which you can if you make them transparent)
and spinners are currently not transparent.. so a request for transparent spinners might be better?
peppy
I think this would just add fuel to the "delete storyboards" fire. Personally I am against it.

I BUMP things that I think people might want. This idea could work, but if people end up hating it, then it can be made invalid. Simple.

Ehhhhh!?
No please everything would be awful

theo's suggestion is way more interesting.
I pesonally want that. Had thoughts about requesting that myself some time.
