Overall I can't speak to the accuracy of your code, only the range; the range looks to actually be too low. I see 49 max, and 90 -> 0 reaches the 4F that cart can do within 30 degrees. (A higher range would make the 90 -> 0 number get even more extreme, but, it is a superhuman tilt to make in one frame! So maybe that's good that it'd be even more extreme! I don't know!)
So tl;dr: I think there are still three things to work on.
One is, the range may be better off at the 216 exactly. The outliers above 80 subvalue were almost definitely due to flicking, and shouldn't be consistently obtainable. Currently 44/80 requires -78 angle in Bizhawk, and I'm sure I was holding my cart at higher than -78 to get a 44/80 average.
One is the desyncing when flicking from max to neutral and reloading savestates. I am not sure how easy to do, but however many prior inputs are used to calculate new ones, loading a state would have to jump back that many extra frames.
And perhaps the flicking code needs to affect the number more...・After defeating the boss on each side, it automatically goes to the warp star. In the Japanese version, you have to operate it yourself and go to the warp star, but in the overseas version it rolls around. Even if there is a hole along the way, it floats in the air. ・Is the option reversed when warping in 3-1 or 6-1? ・The behavior when touching the Gordo of 8-3 is different. When you touch the Gordo in a normal state, such as by flipping up, the Japanese version makes a big jump that jumps off the screen, but the overseas version does not have such a thing.
The boosted acceleration helps not just at the start but also after any jump, and probably after any diagonal movement too. We just have to figure out how hard we can cruise control, and if levels that require downward movement can be done still with an automatic recalibration.
Wew I'm making this game complicated. I haven't even mentioned my plans to try to code a brute forcer to find the best possible horizontal inputs when they're needed.Please report problems with desyncs, and use the current dev build. Make sure you are all using the same version so it's definitely narrowed down to a TAStudio (i.e. savestate) problem and not just an emulation change.
I wonder if you could look into some larger 5-line options like this... (Just realized I didn't test that its actually possible to get the pieces there, especially that T on the far right, but I'm sure there's some similar shapes possible)
(If we get too into this, using Discord for real-time chatting could be more useful than swapping replies on the forum here)To have inputs automatically it can be very useful. In this case we be able to apply even deeper optimisation methods. Recurrent multi-tetris optimisation: It would be possible to try minimize average delay for several tetrises by better conjunction between them. For example if for one tetris delay is small 10 frames, but delay for next one is long 37 frames. 10+37=47. We can check second best option 26 delay for first tetris and look what delay for next tetris it can be like 13. So 26+13=39 summay delay is lower = better. And so on for each tetris conjunction. Or even minimize delay for several tetrises D_min(D1+D2+D3+Dn). Well of course we try to do the same without inputs automatically too, but to do such recurrent multi-tetris optimisation by hands many many times in row be very tedious.
