This topic is about to change the current existing Catch the Beat rule. Instead of having it only for spinner+note the other case note+spinner should be included as well. Even if the spinners are skinable in Catch the Beat the fruits can still blend into them too much. This depends on the bpm mainly.
This image is taken on 210bpm with 1/4 note distance: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/3962874
Now with 1/2 distance: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/3962884
And here is a screenshot for 1/1 distance: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/3962888
As you see at the first example, allowing such a distance on lower difficulties might confuse new player and cause them to get a miss. There are cases where the fruit is inside of the spinner if they are closer than 1/2. Therefore the most usable distance is 1/1 for lower and 1/2 for higher difficulties. Same applies for the notes after the spinners.

- Appropriate spacing must be left between notes both before and after spinners. This is to ensure readability of upcoming notes. Suitable spacings are 1/1 for Cup and Salad difficulties, and 1/2 for Platter and higher difficulties. 1/4 could be acceptable in some cases where the bpm is low enough.
