useless... for now ;)

just found this because i had the thought "damn it'd be cool if i could pause and restart the race and get the reward for finishing it" and while i didn't quite do that here, it might still work. i've gotta mess around with this a bit

i was doing a bit of planning to see what a half-game speedrun¹ of world driver championship would look like and i had the realization that it'd be so much easier if i could get some extra points somewhere, which is how i had this idea

i'm kinda stunned that my idea to pause right as you cross the finish line actually worked the way it did. i'm thinking if i let the ending sequence run up to the point that the points start counting up before i restart the race, it might work

_{1: this game is split into two championships, GT2 and GT1. GT1 is LOOOOOONG but GT2 can be beat in two hours. i'm not interested in speedrunning GT1 right now}

THIS WORKS!!! NOT USELESS!!!

if you wait for the points to accumulate in the finishing sequence before you hit restart, you can earn the reward a second time by completing another race. this basically works exactly as i had imagined it, which is wild to me

not convinced this is useful in a speedrun setting, but it has A Use and that's fucking sick

finally got my world driver championship runs clipped, uploaded, and submitted... i never have to think about this again until i set another time at which point i will probably once again be like "wehhhh but i don't WANNNNA do all this" until i'm sitting on a pile of 10+ videos

eventually i'm gonna have to stop just recording these world driver championship time trials and actually trim/upload them..... but i don't want to. that's too hard. these can all be my secret world records. nobody else gets to see them. except for the ones i streamed

speedrunning is fun but all the other shit you have to do afterwards sucks ass
