I didn't see this but if it's on the forums, let me know so I can post there. A feature I have always wanted is the ability to go back and practice certain sections of a map. It has always frustrated me to play through a map and reach that one point where I am overwhelmed and than have to spend all that time practicing the parts of the map i already know. yes, i know, practice with "no fail mode", but having the ability to fast-forward or rewind the map in something like a practice mode would personally, and for others i feel, equate to a lot less time spent on boring ourselves to death with parts of maps we can already get through with ease. BTW, if anyone has figured out how to do this: "Practice individual sections of a map", let me know. Thanks PPY and the rest of the dev team for making an awesome game, hope to hear from people soon on this.

Open the map in the editor, scroll the timeline to where you want, hit F5, it'll start from there 
Practice mode has been requested countless amounts of times, and will never happen (according to peppy)
Use the work-around Flanster said, it's the best you can do

The problem here is that you can't use mods and have 0% dim.Flanster wrote:

What I would recommend is: going to the beatmap editor go 'create new difficulty', name it something, keep all existing noted and select and remove all notes from the beginning to the point where the section you want practice starts. then save beatmap This takes about ~30 seconds, so I wouldn't expect a feature for this.

For EZ, press F4 -> difficulty -> Half everything (8->4, 5->2.5)
For HR, press Ctrl A J, F4 -> Difficulty -> Multiply everything by 1.4 (5->7)
