Using black and white and using direction as a hint, its probably going to trip me more than if there were colours, i'd recommend opaque white and opaque red/blue depending on if it's increase/decrease respectively, or let the players decide their speed up/slow down colours in the optionsmm201 wrote:
Hmmmm, instead of alternating black/transparent, they could alternate black and opaque white.

Add a slider speedup / slowdown indicator

It would be a skinnable image.
I wonder whether or not it should be skinnable in-map, because mappers might dork around with it, making it too hard to see.
It would also be disableable, for those who don't need it or who would be bothered more by it than the speed changes themselves.

We already find the best solution for it!mm201 wrote:

Question. What happens with current ranked maps if this does get implemented?
Since it is a skin element, I assume it will be visible as wellLilac wrote:

Why would anything happen to them? They stay the same and possibly receive the marker depending on the speed ratio used.
I'm just thinking with certain combo colours and skins that exist on current maps that it might not turn out great for some...
...Never mind me though.

Since it's skinnable it could be added to the default skin, which since its a missing element of all map skins it wouldnt override itLilac wrote:

Just sounds like another distraction to me
It will be skinnable, so you can probably just replace it with a transparent 1x1pt *.png and you won't be distracted any more~ouranhshc wrote:

Okay *smirks*
Dude, he wouldn't even need to do that, since mm201 thought of people who would find it distracting:Luna wrote:

That's kind of cool. It'd be neat if the black dots could slide along the whole sliderborder, but I can understand how that would be troublesomemm201 wrote:
The speed change ratio would need to be greater than 2:3 to show any warning.
The dotted ring would rotate.
Just suggesting...
A skinnable notification (image) on the lower-right portion of the screen...
If the slider speed is slower than normal, it will display something like a slow icon while having pulse on the beat, just like combo.
Also if the slider speed if faster than normal, but a different image...
If it gets back to normal, the current image also disappears.

I've been thinking a bit, what about adding glows in the followpoints? Maybe that could help a bit also, pulsing in a certain speed.
That came into my mind after seeing speed changes with jumps+fast sliders.
Except 1) You dont see followpoints on new combos, and 2) most speedups/slowdowns are new combo'd to "hint" the player

Followpoints are at least as subtle as sliderticks if not moreso.
TBH, this is why I don't really see the need for this.
(inb4 I made the request: I split it from another discussion so that one could stay on-topic.)

This would be useful. We wouldn't have to go through the trouble of skinning one if it were added.
