Get familiar with the Routine Creator
Update 4 announced a revised tutorial for the routine editor. Follow the in-game tutorial to locate the controls described below.
Brixumi tip: Make one small edit, preview it, and compare the result before changing multiple moves. Check your saved routine before experimenting with further changes.
Speed, cropping, and move search
Move speed
Update 4 announced controls to speed up or slow down moves.
Brixumi tip: Adjust one move at a time and preview the transition before adding more changes.
Move cropping
Trim the beginning and/or end of a move.
Brixumi tip: Use a small trim first, then check whether the next move starts cleanly.
Move search
Find moves with the Routine Creator search bar.
Brixumi tip: Search for a move you already know instead of repeatedly browsing the whole list.
These features were announced by Mars on September 26 at 04:07 (UTC+8). Check the editor for the available speed range and any access requirements.
