If a larger scale debate occurs about the anchorpoints I wouldn't mind excluding most of them if the contra side overtakes the pro side.Didn't really want to make this double post but since no one really gives input I kinda have to.As you may have noticed this topic **got stickied** and lists the behaviour during gameplay, HD-elements, or differences between the old and new behaviour.Since I'm playing standard mostly I have no real clue about the other game modes but still want this topic to be **addressed to all game modes**.Therefore I'm asking all of you to **give input** on any missing behaviours from all game modes or in general to make this a somewhat complete list by the community for the community.To contribute more to this post I wll list some plans for the next updates.* -expand list of dead elements (aimed at older skins as a template)* -make a list with all currently skinnable elements sorted by game mode or usage* -sort facts per game mode after more input* -start making screenshots to provide visual help* -start formatting to make it more visually appealing after input* -maybe drop points from or expand list of anchorpointsAll of this will take some time and will be implemented step by step or maybe dropped.I hope for a lot of help / input from you to make this a topic worth reading.you are so awesome, thx for doing this i hope there will be a perfect thread with also pictures the old one looks outdated (uploaded on imgur albums or soemthing)The recent update changed or rather fixed two aspects listed here and one has a larger impact.With the new update the **scorebar-marker** is now skinnable and forces a different anchorpoint on the scorebar-colour than the scorebar-ki elements.The new anchorppoint is **12,12** when using the marker and breaks all skins which currently have it.Also it prioritizes the marker before the ki.
