AccessAbility

AccessAbility

Not all of us can play with two hands or arms, or dive to avoid walls, but that shouldn't stop any of us from being able to enjoy the game! A true one-hand and sitting-friendly mod. Play any map. With only the blocks of your color-choice in their original patterns. Turn off wall-damage, Delete crouch walls, Unbreakable bombs.

And still keep your scores.

This mod allows you to play the original map with blocks and other elements turned off without forced score deduction or NF. I want to make this game as accessible and enjoyable for as many of us as possible. It's your game, your ability, and your definition of skill and fun :)

Supports Left/Righthand playersettings, Multiplayer, OST/DLC, Custom and Base Campaigns, Party, Practice, and Leaderboard Score Submission! For BS 1.18.3+

How Is This Different From AlternativePlay?

This mod does not convert all the blocks to one color or to dot blocks, which can make a map difficult or unpleasant to play single-handed. AccessAbility deletes the blocks of a color and thus accurately represents playing the original map with only one hand.

If you want to see the whole map but play only one color, AccessAbility can set a color to vanish without counting as miss.

How To Use

• Place AccessAbility.dll in your Plugins folder
• Set the toggles to what is comfortable for you and have fun!
• Adjust Distance slider for how near the blocks are to you when they vanish. 6.0 keeps them out of saber-reach. At 3.0 and below, score submission is automatically turned off in Local if SS or CC installed
• Choose how you want your scores to be counted. Score submission is on by default (see below)
• Requires BSML and BS Utils

Scores

• In-Map: Only the color you are playing will be scored :)
• No Score Modifiers: Multiplayer and Party scores will not be affected by Friendly Bombs, Friendly Walls, or No Crouch Walls. Upload to online OST/DLC leaderboards is turned off. This feature will only activate in Local (even if toggled on) if leaderboards and CustomCampaigns are not installed.
• Results Page and Submission: If submitting, your passing score will be as if turned-off or disappearing blocks were 0's. Rank and FC is for the color you played :) You can turn off submission and keep your BeatSavior and SliceVisualizer Data but local scores and replays will not be saved. Friendly Walls or Turn Off Crouch Walls subtracts 5% from score like the base game No Obstacles modifier. Indestructable Bombs subtracts 10%.
• Turn Off Score Submission: Only applies when one or more mod features are enabled. If you want to turn off submission across your game, see my other mod PlayFirstSubmitLater

Play One Handed Dodge-Cube

• Set Distance to 0 for the color you're not playing, then try not to hit those blocks as you play the color you want! ^^
