Songs can be lengthy. Sometimes, when I fail at the end of a song, I don't retry, because I know that I'll have to go through all of the beginning which I can do just to get to the hard end part again. Being able to retry from the last break would eliminate this feeling of defeat, so that way I can practice the ending until I get it down, then perform the whole song.
Why not just use edit mode to practice?
Edit mode is edit mode. It isn't practice mode. Plus, it takes plenty of work from the user to switch to edit mode and then find the section. Also, edit mode does not rank. If this is added in play mode, people can rank (given a point deduction).
How could we implement this?
One way would to add an extra button to the retry screen. Or, have an additional menu after the user presses retry asking if he or she would want to start from the last break. Each time it is done, it deducts from the total score from the song (by subtraction or a multiplier).
The second way of doing this is by a mod that automatically does this for the user. It would also have a multiplier.
