SMO: Studying Metro route #47. I did timed runs of the metro boss fight. Got 1:45 average, beating my target of 1:50. I also have a lead on how to improve. I'm going to continue practicing this fight to work on that lead.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Continuing from my last session, I'm going to do timed trials.
Results:
- 1:07. 2 cycle win.
- I did better at successfully shooting the projectiles before starting to shoot the snake.
- I didn’t hit the head first.
- I also didn’t shoot the snake while not changing aim.
- 1:30. 3 cycle win.
- I did worse (than compared to last trial) at successfully shooting the projectiles before starting to shoot the snake.
- I didn’t hit the head first and actually missed a ton before I successfully hit the snake at all.
- I also didn’t shoot the snake while not changing aim, because it had stopped moving before I even got one successful shot.
- 2:04. 4 cycle win.
- I had only 1 snake segment left to hit at the end of the 3rd cycle.
- That thing happened again where I thought I hit a snake segment but it didn’t register.
- I’ve noticed that this only happens when I’m at an angle near 45 degrees.
- I think what’s happening is that the segment next to the one I want to hit is protecting the one I want to hit.
- 1:06. 2 cycle win.
- 4-trial time average = 1:45, which is 4.5% better than the 1:50 target I set (which is twice as slow as the world record video I linked in previous sessions).
- If I didn't have the problem I had about shooting the snake at too much of an angle, I would have had an average of 1:14, which is 32% better than the 1:50 target.
- 4-trial cycle average = 2.75
- If I didn't have the angle problem, I would have gotten 2.33 (which is my best ever -- previous best ever was 2.5).
# Next steps: Do timed trials again, aiming to avoid shooting snake segments at an angle that effectively makes their neighbors act like shields.
