    Re: FFR Suggestions

    So I've recommended it a few times in the past few years, but maybe posting it in the actual suggestions thread will do some good. Is there any chance of getting a "mini" mod? I must stress that I do NOT mean the same mini in the Legacy/Velocity engine where the notes start out massive, and shrink to minuscule half way up the screen. I mean making the receptors smaller, and the arrows smaller (not shrinking - smaller the entire time they are visible on the screen) and effectively "lengthening" the playscreen of the game. I use a 40% mini mod on Stepmania that does this, mostly to emulate the long field of view that Thirdstyle has.
    Is there any possibility of this? It's essentially just scaling the arrows and receptors down, and it would make it so me (and maybe some others) could play FFR with a higher scroll speed and be able to read dense sections better. plsplszplz?

      I'll ask Zageron about this when he gets back from vacation. Until then, you can try manipulating the R^3 interface for some extra reading space: http://imgur.com/a/2wwh2

        Tyvm for doing this and screenshotting and putting it all together for me I have done that, as well as tried the extending via ODS or similar screen recording program, however the latter causes lag for me. This is definitely a nice temporary solution.

              Minor suggestion: More displays of best score on songs in engine.
              Right now it has
              AAA
              Blackflag
              SDG
              FC
              Unplayed.

              Without combo scoring, this isnt really enough information.
              Can we add
              Passed
              Single digit Miss?

              I want to be able to tell if I quit out of a song and didnt play it all the way through.

                If the bolded is all you're concerned about, you can tell by seeing a score with no score indicator (blank) and you actually having a score shown in the bottom right side of the engine screen.

                Though, I would like to see more indicators like Booflag, Missflag, etc.

                      Is it possible to make it so we can see who downvotes/upvotes our comments in FPPs/Random thoughts/Videos etc?
                      I dunno it's probably gonna sound almost as trivial as the people who downvote shit for no reason, but I like to know who all the toxic pieces of shit are just so I don't accidentally waste my time being polite.

                            Fantastic news! That's super exciting, thank you so much! 30-40% definitely tailors to me, but what are the chances of an x% mini entry field kind of thing? I'd imagine it would be kind of difficult, but I do know of SM players using as low as 5% and sometimes I practice much faster speed mods with as high as 60% mini. I'm perfectly happy with any middle ground mod but it would add a lot to the engine to have it be custom

                              Wordpress comments are currently not set up for this, so it wouldn't be retroactive. But I can look into this if it's something more people would be interested in!

                                this has probably been suggested before but a distant mod like in sm would be really cool if it was doable
                                is expressing my inability to create a creative signature an act of creativity in and of itself?
