DPP Rebalance October 17, 2021 Changelog

dpprebalance_2021-10-17.md

• Aim revamp
  • Aim skill calculation is reverted to what it used to be, along with the addition of movement strain (moved from original speed skill).
• Rhythm revamp
  • Rhythm skill has been removed and incorporated to speed skill (applied to tap strain).
• HD bonus bug fix
  • This bug caused HD bonus to be 20% more than they should.
• AR>10.33 bonus bug fix
  • This bug caused high AR (above 10.33) bonus to become nonexistent (literally).
• Merge of PC star rating/pp changes:
  • Better star rating that correlates with pp
  • High and low AR buff on mid-length maps
  • Add FL difficulty/skill
  • Remove speed cap in difficulty calculation
    • This is altered for droid due to its wide OD range and PR mod (which can drastically change the result in high OD). You can find an interactive graph here.
  • Rhythm Complexity in Speed Skill
  • Fix instant spinners giving insane amounts of strain
  • Approximate amount of effective misses using combo
• Changed a few fundamental concepts of 3f nerf penalty
  • Now uses the new decomposed tap strain from speed skill to greatly reduce the chance of jump scores from being flagged.
    • Keep in mind that the OD scaling in speed cap removal mentioned above doesn't affect the strain that is being considered for 3f nerf.
  • Decreased strain threshold since movement strain has been separated.
  • Slightly increased final penalty.
• Original accuracy variance changed
  • Now uses droid hit window instead of PC hit window, assuming hits are distributed in normal distribution.
• Strain calculation fix
  • The latest strain peak wasn't recorded, causing the last few milliseconds of a beatmap's difficulty to be ignored. This fix fixes that bug.
