So I was playing around the other day with MBU and noticed that it didn't have diagonal movement. However, I noticed something much cooler: you can exceed the max diagonal speed of the marble by rolling sideways. If you turn the camera and alternate between W+A and W+D you can greatly exceed the maximum diagonal velocity limit of 21.213.
Don't believe me? Watch this:
Doing some testing gives the following results:
Time Trial TT (@4x size):
It works best over long straights of path but can be applied virtually anywhere you will hit the maximum roll speed cap. Of course, jumping is always faster (air acceleration is constant and a lot easier to control), but this could be very influential on some no-jump records. Enjoy mashing your fingers!
