Is it possible to change the tick rate for sliders on one section of a beatmap?

I’m mapping an easy song and wanted the sliders on the last section to have ticks on 1/8 time but I have the song at 1/4 time signature.

If it helps, this is the map

You can achieve this effect by changing the BPM but idk if that's rankable, I wouldn't recommend changing tick rates in any case for a map though

Ah ok that makes sense, but it's probably for the best that I don't change it, especially for an easy map. Just out of curiosity, why wouldn't you recommend changing the tick rate for any map?

Most maps use tick rate 1 anyway, some Easy difficulties use 2 to encourage players to actually follow sliders. They will learn how to cheese them only on Hard difficulties and above. If you're using a tick rate higher than 1 you basically just want people to actually follow your sliders, and that should apply to your whole map instead of just one section.

Although, by editing the .osu file, slider tick rate 0.5 is rankable. It's used to support gimmicks such as in this map or if you simply want to get rid of slider ticks from >1/1 to 2/1 sliders like in this map.
