- give inf selects at start to not get selects in crates

- give inf selects at start to not get selects in crates

This will not solve this issue, the selects will always have a chance of spawning in crates, even with infinite ammo. This is an old issue of WA.

The chance is very small, though. If someone gets Select Worm, this player can retry the challenge.

I think a better rule should have been instead of arrive at finish with 5 hhg, arrive at finish having collected 5 crates, so to not introduce rng in an already heavily rng challenge.

That actually happened with the record I just uploaded. I was with 5 crates collected as can be seen at the crate counter (nearby Turn Time), but I had x4 HHGs only, because I got a Select Worm from the 4th crate I collected (the scheme is already with infinite Select Worm, by the way). Fortunately I was lucky to find a 6th crate on my way that I decided to collect, containing the 5th HHG needed for the challenge. All the crates I collected of this replay spawned on my way, including two that were very close to each other. There was even a 7th one very close to me that I decided to ignore.

/arrows is a bad idea to use for this, it covers half the screen and while roping it makes you dizzy :d

obrigado Foxy : P it was surely not the fastest possible, I tried to do it safe by flagpoling a lot, without falling even once. if someone makes succesful big tosses, flies on the map that saves a lot of time and can be much faster. I did only one in my run cuz I fell and missed a lot of good runs in previous attempts :D for making a rly good run here, u need a bit of luck with crate spawns + big flies from cloud to cloud at some parts

bit upset that Walrus fell down 4 times in his run and still made 13 sec faster time :D

Under 100 is very possible. Impressive, Walrus! I think I cannot beat you two!
