Osu: New way to calculate if we passed a section

Created on 1 Apr 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: ppy/osu

Describe the new feature:

So, it seems to me that the current system only looks at whether our life bar is above 50% or not to tell if we've passed a section. But I'd like to propose something a little more complex to find out if we've passed a section or not. So instead of looking at our life bar, I think we should take the maximum number of MISS or 50 (or even combine both) that we can do in a section and take the number of MISS that the user has done during the section and from that make a percentage. If the percentage is higher than 30-40% we say that the section is partially passed, and above 50-60% we consider the section is failed. (This could also add a skinning element).

If we're using section grade for section pass/fail, it should be shown on the break screen along with cumulative acc/rank/grade, which is already there. Could also give more granular feedback on song performance, since section grades better convey where players struggle.

The rank can be a good measure.

Also it seems that osu!lazer has disposed the concept of section pass/fail.

If you're talking about the lack of support for storyboard pass/fail layers, that is yet to be re-implemented.

@mcendu The rank should be used at the end of the map. For a overall of the performance.

Seems like an interesting direction for sure.
