So now that we have difficulty sorting by mode on the website and in game (http://puu.sh/doCie.png), why don't we take another step and sort each key mode separately?
Each key mode plays differently (almost like a different game), and the mapping styles differ for each one. The RC also states that each key mode has to have its own spread to be rankable, so it would make sense to differentiate between each one just like how the other game modes are now sorted separately.
Navigating maps to play a specific key mode is a bit of a pain right now. If I wanted to play the 4K Insane in this map (https://osu.ppy.sh/s/171880), I'd have to scroll through and find it in the middle of the other difficulties. With separate sorting, I could just look through the 4K difficulties of that mapset, and go to the Insane. If I wanted to play a higher or lower difficulty, it would be just one or two slots away.
A ranked example where the current sorting is problematic: https://osu.ppy.sh/s/136986
How a mapset with all 4 modes would look like:
For example purposes, the first NHI would be 4K, and the ENHI would be 7K.
Sorting from lowest -> highest key mode sounds fine to me.
I personally think this is the next step to categorizing each osu!mania key mode as its own thing. What does everyone else think?
