Hi! I am relatively new to the source momentum scene, and I think something massive that would be helpful is ghosts and better ways of teaching the mechanics. I know that the learn stuff is in super early alpha, but I think making the easier things easier would be massively helpful and I think more lessons in each section would be helpful too.

Do you mean ghosts like, bot path?

narrow horizon
#

yeah that would be awesome actually

honest badger
#

I mean I have more suggestions

But yes

We may do that but worry it's a bit too powerful, idk

#

Feel free to post any suggestions here 🙂

idk how it'd be any more powerful than being allowed to watch a replay or noclip without your run canceling

narrow horizon
#

maybe if it only showed a specific run that finishes, not a fast one

yeah I think something was lost in understanding there. We do plan to both have bots within learn sections that show what you're meant to do, as well as bots you can view without being locked into firstperson, and we've discussed real-time bots that play out during actual runs of stuff so you can see if you're behind or infront in real-time, like Neon White in that regard.

Nice

I really just meant in the teach

in the learning section

I'm really bad and really new

#

and all the help I can get is appreciated

#

Like I couldn't even beat the easy bhop tutorial

and what you're learning shouldn't necessarily be easy to complete, because if it was, then all you're doing is completing it without actually learning how you did. However, a level should come off as easy from how its taught, so there is an issue in the teaching more than anything, and that's already being worked on instead to try focus on the learning part over putting you in a test kind of thing.

Hm

#

That is

#

really intelligent design

#

nice

#

I didn't even think of it that way

Seeing the WR ghost is often not the most helpful for a rookie, a 'normal' completion would probably be more effective but you can't prepare those for every map. Unless you make it a community volunteer kind of thing maybe.

Ah this is 9 days old already lol
