Comments

(i really try my best to avoid them all the time, trust me, but the movie can desync in mission 3 paratroopers/danger barrel, and in final mission on the boat...it will not trigger credits ^^' will provide a savestate if it needed).
Use this savestate you can prevent the desync in last mission.

Nothing special...
Rapid Bombs don't work on Tetsuyuki(HP:2900) at a moment due to his canon position.

Manipulation for paratroopers positions.
Manipulate Mini-Bata(HP:2100) for make him go to the right to minimize his dying animation.
Flying Tara trick.
Manipulate Hairbuster Riberts(HP:8550)spawn .

Wait a few frames to let him end his pattern and show Morden, who is needed to finish Riberts.

Manipulate luck to get H and Bombs.
Manipulate Allen O'Neil spawn and patterns.

MISSION 4

Bonus stage, nothing hard here.

Adjustment to land on the rope when Shoe(HP:2400) can't kill you.
Manipulation to reach the rapport screen earlier.

MISSION 5

Bonus stage too when know the amo house secret.
Iron Nokana(hp:4100) is quite strange, you need to take 4090HP and wait for about 1200 frames to finish him.
Keep slug for entertainment with invincibility.

FINAL MISSION

Manipulate luck (wait lots of frames, near 20) to get S.
Manipulate soldiers wich skip a Girida-O fight
Manipulate Flying Tara squadron position+trick.
Manipulation to have Bikers pattern wich skip a Girida-O fight.
Manipulate Flying Tara squadron position+trick.
R-shobu 1hit kill by damge on Eaca-B.
Manipulate Hi-Do(HP:12000) position and patterns (minimize lag).
Wait for finish him like boss 5 and 3

Glitch and trick

Don't shoot enemy at the same time.

Any enemies can be hit only once in every 2 frames, except for mission2's boats.

Press down to cancel.

Usually you can throw the bombs or shoot once in every 8 frames. If you press down to cancel the shoot, you can fire the next quickly, evety 4 frames 1 shoot.

Others

quick thanks before better form to mtvf1,coolkirby,x2poet
the record count is low but it is "only" a file where i manually copy paste wip input and adjustment/desync

Nach: Since feos managed to get this to sync, Good feedback. It's mind-boggling how you managed to improve it like this. Accepting as improvement to existing run.
feos: Yeah.

Synced with no savestates, dumped, ready to publish.
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.
