The Local changes
Superboard
This update introduces the Superboard for the Timed gamemode. This leaderboard reveals the top 100 best players across every course, excluding the Weeklies. Sorting is done with a rank score. You will receive points for each course you've ranked at least 100th on, with 1st placing giving the most points. This score goes up to a maximum of 10,000, which requires a #1 rank on every course.
You can access this menu from the Timed gamemode screen, by pressing the "SB" button next to the leaderboard button.
Other Data
This board also displays your average rank, and combined time. Please note that players who don't have a top 100 time (see below) on every course will not have an accurate average rank and combined time. When this is the case, those fields will be greyed out.
Select which field to sort by, from Score, Average Rank, Name, and Combined Time. Just press a column's name
Sort ascending or descending
Average rank and combined time sorting first display all players with complete data, and then everyone else after
But what is a top 100 time?
Unfortunately, behind the scenes, a top 100 time does not always mean you have an in-game rank within the top 100. It means you are appear in first 100 entries on the Steam leaderboard, which does nothing to handle ties. So in cases where a board has lots of players tying, you may not actually make the cut. There is some extra room, but it still doesn't always help. In these cases, you'll just have to get a time that's closer to rank 90, for example.
Other
Timed save files are now saved when exiting to the title. This should fix cases where your attempts data is lost. Note that this does not apply to quitting to the desktop
