Greetings to all Unreal players!

NEWBIESPLAYGROUND has organised a special Speedrun Contest as a follow-up to our main 2021 Unreal Contest!
We would like to take this opportunity to invite all players to participate in this challenging Speedrun Contest!
The aim of the Speedrun Contest is to provide a total contrast to our main Unreal Contest, so simply hitting the end(s) in the fastest time is the objective and not trying to score every frag like in our main Unreal Contest.

Commands

When you join the server, you automatically become an observer. Players can start their match if no Admin is present by using a console command. The server will record the match statistics.

TrialMatch
This command starts a practice Speedrun match, the person that enters this command becomes the participant.

RestartMap
This command restarts the current map so a player can practice the same map again with the same inventory from previous maps. This command is only available for a TRIALMATCH.

TerminateMatch
This command terminates the current TRIALMATCH and can only be used by the participant or an Admin.

StartMatch
This command starts an actual Speedrun Contest match, the person that enters this command becomes the participant.

Rules

[Speedrun Rules]

The NEWBIESPLAYGROUND Speedrun Contest 2021 is a competition between individual players whose aim is to complete the selection of maps in the quickest time possible. Each participant plays a distinct match on a special server and other people observe the game as spectators. The participant is respawned after dying, but each death reduces the player’s score by 1.

Each participant is allowed as much practice (TRIALMATCH) or actual Contest-Matches (STARTMATCH) as they wish on any of the 3 SPEEDRUN CONTEST servers.

The difficulty level is 3, the gameplay is nearly the same as if when using game type UnrealShare.CoopGame without any mods. All modifications are either bug-fixes or changes implied by the rules described below. A STARTMATCH has priority over a TRIALMATCH.

1. Score and ranking of players

When players finish their matches, they are sorted by their ranks. Players with the highest rank become winners. The higher rank between two players is defined as follows:

  • The player with the fastest time is ranked highest.
  • If two players achieve exactly the same time, then the player with the highest Score is ranked higher than the other. Score is defined as Frags minus Deaths.
  • Otherwise, if two players also achieve the same Score, then the player who recorded their STARTMATCH first is ranked higher than the other.

A map can be finished only by reaching its exit.

If the player dies, the Score of the player is decreased by 1.

All deaths are considered as happening in a particular order, even when two or more deaths take place during the same game engine tick, so two or more deaths are never processed as happening simultaneously. Before Pawn’s death is processed, the Pawn is considered as still alive.

2. Time limits

There are no time limits to any map.

3. Contents of maps

Each map includes the same set of actors (enemies, inventory, decorations, etc) as it would include if using the game-type UnrealShare.CoopGame without mods. If an actor initially has odds of appearing more than 0% and less than 100%, its odds of appearing is adjusted to 100%. Some actors may appear at random locations (following the classic rules). If a destructible decoration has a content, the content is guaranteed to be the same in all matches; if the content might be either a Pawn or a non-Pawn, it is guaranteed to be a Pawn in all matches.

4. Health and inventory management

The participant starts to play with 100 health points (HP), having only the DispersionPistol and the Translator. If the participant dies, all collected inventory is removed. After respawning, the participant has 100 HP, DispersionPistol, and Translator. When the participant enters the next map, the player has the same health and inventory set as when ending the previous map.

Weapons, that lie on a map and were not dropped by the player or mobs, are respawned quickly. Other types of inventory are not respawned.

5. Disconnection and reconnection

Whenever the participant disconnects from the server, the game is paused. If the total duration of pauses exceeds 30 minutes during the match, Admins may terminate the match.

If the participant reconnects to the server and enters the game, then health, inventory set, location, and velocity of the player are restored to what they were when the player was in-game.
