Add key binding for cycling grid type (#26303 by @OliBomby)

Using the tool boxes on the right frequently is quite annoying, so I also added a keybind for cycling the grid type (H). I chose this key because its right next to the grid spacing cycle hotkey (G) and unused. It makes sense to group the grid property changing hotkeys physically close on the keyboard. An alternative hotkey could be like Shift+G or Shift+G, Ctrl+G is taken.

There's also a test for the grid placement tool in here which apparently got left behind when I was splitting up this PR into parts. I guess it can't hurt to have it so here it is.

Fix drawing slider with touch inserts a random control point at beginning (#30263 by @frenzibyte)

Add toggles and hotkeys for configuring sample addition bank (#28863 by @OliBomby)

This PR adds a new left toolbox for configuring the sample addition bank of the selected hit objects. The toggles for the sample bank now only affect the hitnormal sample of the selection.

The hotkeys are Alt-Q~R. This differs from stable's Ctrl-Q~R because those hotkeys are already taken by other tools in lazer.
Using Alt-Shift-Q~R sets both sample bank and sample addition bank simultaneously, like previous functionality.
The same hotkeys are also added to the sample edit popover on the timeline.

Improve scale/rotate popover UX to better match user expectation (#30315 by @OliBomby)

Added keyboard step values to the slider bars which match the keyboard step in stable. This is especially nice to use with ppy/osu-framework#6390

Also made the popovers close when you press Enter (or Spacebar). This matches the behaviour in stable so now all the scale/rotate muscle memory should carry over nicely to lazer.

Add support for "auto" sample bank additions in the editor (#29648 by @OliBomby)

Keep sidebars expanded by default (#30387 by @peppy)

They will not only contract if the user chooses to have them contract (new setting in the View menu) or if the game isn't wide enough to allow full interaction with the playfield while they are expanded.

Allow scaling down to 5% in popover scale dialog (#30482 by @peppy)

Remember origin settings for scale/rotation popover (#30484 by @peppy)

Fix drum roll editor blueprint size & input handling (#30511 by @bdach)

2024-11-05.13-09-55.mp4

Fix effect point scroll speeds below 0.1x not being encoded properly (#30509 by @bdach)

Add ability to hide breaks from timeline (#30505 by @peppy)

This was another IRL request from a mapper / team member. The rationale here is that it can be very annoying to map with break time enabled if you have a large gap in the beatmap you are trying to fill with hitobjects, as you are placing objects on top of a very gray area:

osu.2024-11-05.at.04.06.40.mp4

Add ability to automatically move already-placed objects when changing timing settings (#28382 by @Hecatia-Lapislazuli)

Gameplay

Fix argon song progress bar tooltip showing during active gameplay (#30199 by @bdach)

Decrease the time it takes to quick retry by ~650 ms (#30261 by @peppy)

Removes an arbitrary delay from the quick retry process. Now it is only limited by load speed (which will improve in the future).

Remove hold-to-confirm delay when pausing using keyboard shortcuts (#30309 by @peppy)

This keeps coming up (latest case) so I think we need to listen to users and make this change. Matches stable behaviour.

Make quick restart even faster (#30603 by @peppy)

This is a second pass at refining the quick restart experience.

• More arbitrarily induced delays are culled
• Settings are hidden now (since interacting with them is nigh impossible given the faster restart speed)
• Some animations are hidden to make the process less jarring
• Parallax is disabled to stop the background displacing weirdly

Smaller changes

• Handle mid-play mod changes (ppy/osu-server-spectator#245 by @bdach)
• Do not fall back to beatmap's original ruleset if conversion fails (#30424 by @bdach)
• Fix break overlay grades not using localised string (#30572 by @Joehuu)
• Fix occasional flash when quick exiting / retrying from player (#30623 by @peppy)

Gameplay (osu!)

Fix slider ticks and repeats incorrectly moved to position of head when strict tracking and any conversion mod that moves objects is active (#30281 by @bdach)

Fix cursor rotating with barrel roll mod active (#30326 by @jhk2601)

Some may argue that cursor rotation is intended behavior but it looks odd and feels pretty janky, especially on abnormal cursors like the issue describes. Would be better if cursor rotation could be adjusted in existing switch stat...

Editor

Make editor flip, rotate, and scale tools revolve around the grid center (#26311 by @OliBomby)

Changes how the Ctrl+H and Ctrl+J flip mechanic works. It now takes into account the origin and rotation of the grid to flip around that axis. This makes it easy to map symmetric patterns which are off-angle or not around the center of the playfield.

Also the Ctrl+R rotation tool uses the grid origin as the center of the playfield.
The precision scale tool uses the grid origin as the center of the playfield and uses the grid rotation for axis constrained scaling (for scaling only along the X or Y axis)

Fix scaling sliders ignoring the scale origin (#29942 by @minetoblend)

Makes sure that when scaling sliders with the scale box, they are scaled relatively to the scale origin instead of the slider head.

2024-09-20.17-15-02.mp4

Freeze select box buttons position on press (#29950 by @minetoblend)

Will freeze the position of the SelectBox buttons in place when one of the buttons was clicked until the clicked button is no longer hovered. This ensures that buttons can be pressed repeatedly without having to reposition the mouse on every click.

Especially when rotating the selection by 90 degrees, the buttons moving around on each press was a major pain point for me since I often wanna rotate by 180 degrees and just wanna double click the button for that.

2024-09-21.14-57-25.mp4

Support scaling around center when scaling with select box (#29949 by @minetoblend)

Redesign timing table tracking (#29532 by @bdach)

This change removes some behaviours of the timing screen that were (in my view) causing overall jankness, and manifested in actual issues. The general spirit of the change is "don't try to do too much for the user".

So now:

• On entering the screen, the timing point active at the current instant of the map is selected. This is the only time where the selected point is changed automatically for the user.
• If there is no control point selected, the table will autoscroll to the latest timing group, unless the user manually scrolled the table before.
• If the selected control point changes, the table will autoscroll to the newly selected point, regardless of whether the user manually scrolled the table before.
• A new button is added which permits the user to select the latest timing group. As per the point above, this will autoscroll the user to that group at the same time.

Further timeline usability tweaks (#29545 by @peppy)

Based on general feedback over the last while.

Before	After

Add ability to change slider length by dragging slider tail (#25953 by @OliBomby)

Overlay Mod Select

  • Removed on click event for the mod customization header, As of #29618 .

Renamed ModCustomisationPanelState, since only mods set the "old" Expanded panel state.

Further suggestions that could be applied to this area:

• Refactor mods that use the ExpandedByMod state to set parameters directly, for example copy attributes from current map when you enable difficulty adjustments.
• Keep colourprovider.light4 on the header when the mod customization panel is expanded. (I attempted to add this, but I am too stupid to understand how to remove it when the hover is lost & the panel is collapsed). 😃

Daily Challenge

Fix insane slowdown when scrolling the new leaderboard display (#29228 by @peppy)

Add daily challenge stats display to user profile overlay (#29157 by @frenzibyte)

Fix clicking the beatmap import notification at the daily challenge screen exiting to main menu (#29322 by @peppy)

Add intro screen for daily challenge (#29323 by @peppy)

Culmination of a community suggestion on discord, with some code from frenzi and final touches applied by me. There's still a lot I'd like to improve about this but spent long enough on it so want to go with what I have for now.

Start playing the daily challenge track during the intro (and automatically download) (#29347 by @peppy)

Add sound design for daily challenge intro animation (#29368 by @nekodex)

Adds a new sample for the daily challenge button, plus some sfx to augment the animation, topped off with some ducking.

Fix daily challenge notification spam (#29363 by @peppy)

Notification will now only show:

• Once per room.
• Only if game was opened or user logged in within 30 minutes of the room going live.

Note that the second point here changes (simplifies) the behaviour by always showing, even in the game-started case. Previously it would only show if logging in. I think this aligns better.

• Add samples for the daily challenge intro animation (ppy/osu-resources#336 by @nekodex)

Editor

Always show timing points in timeline when at the timing screen (#29211 by @peppy)

Show breaks behind objects in timeline (#29231 by @peppy)

Run stacking while performing movement in osu! composer (#28792 by @bdach)

Allow object deletion with middle mouse (#29286 by @peppy)

This is in addition to Shift + Right-click.

I think middle mouse feels more natural and is a good permanent solution to this issue.

Note that this also allows triggering the context menu from placement mode. Until now it's done nothing. This may be annoying to users with muscle memory but I want to make the change and harvest feedback. I think showing the context menu is more correct behaviour (although arguably it should return to placement mode on dismiss?).

Show object inspector values during placement (#29366 by @peppy)

Gameplay

Fix keys getting stuck on unpause (ppy/osu-framework#6347 by @frenzibyte)

Fix pause input handling in osu! not working like stable (#29250 by @frenzibyte)

In stable, when you press the resume cursor, if there's a spinner then it's aware that you're currently pressing a key, but if there's a hit circle it does not respond to the press of that key. This broke recently but is now fixed.

Add key counter support for classic/legacy skins (#29027 by @normalid-awa)

pr.demo.mp4

Add "press enter" hint to in-gameplay chat box (#29281 by @kstefanowicz)

I don't know how to get to a multiplayer game in a debug build, so I was not able to confirm if this works.

Fix DT/HT sounding worse than they should (ppy/osu-framework#6354 by @OliBomby)

A thing which was supposed to be applied wasn't. This may also fix latency when using DT/HT.

Add option to hide song progress time/text (#29372 by @ArijanJ)

Smaller changes

• Move combo counter to ruleset-specific HUD components container (#26249 by @frenzibyte)
• Fix crash on changing skins when classic mod is enabled and game is rewound (#29406 by @peppy)
• Fix some characters ('.', ',') being misaligned in legacy counters (#29426 by @peppy)
  • If you look closely, this causes a bit more (sub-pixel) vertical movement when numbers change, but it matches stable so I think it's fine.
• Fix beatmap skin always overriding ruleset HUD components (#29427 by @frenzibyte)

Gameplay (osu!)

• Interpolate parts in local space to avoid broken cursor trails (#29253 by @Cai1Hsu)

Fix fruit positions getting mangled when exploded from the plate (#29403 by @smoogipoo)

Gameplay (osu!mania)

Fix error on parsing osu!mania replays with 18 or more keys (#29388 by @cl8n)

Smaller changes

• Add argon/classic osu!mania combo counter (#26254 by @frenzibyte)
  • • Supersedes #20579

Adds support for classic osu!mania combo counter, as well as a very basic implementation for "Argon" skin to increase its usability (cc @peppy for adding animations to the argon one if wanted).

This does not include turning the combo colour to yellow during a hold note, especially since hold notes don't have ticks anymore, which makes the yellow state look odd.

Preview:

Argon preview (again, not final):

Localisation

• Add localisation for daily challenge day/week units (#29414 by @smoogipoo)

Main Menu

• Remove daily challenge tooltip from main menu (#29417 by @peppy)
  • Now that we have a nice intro screen for the daily challenge, it's generally thought that we want to "spoil" the beatmap until the intro is shown.

Also I was never a huge fan of having a tooltip on a main menu button.. just feels a bit odd.

Mod Select

Flash customise button on mod overlay when it becomes available (#29212 by @peppy)

I want to make it more visible when it becomes enabled, since some users (myself included) may overlook it. Just a helpful little nudge.

Allow horizontal scrolling on mod select overlay anywhere on the screen (#29249 by @peppy)
