Lose Tails Or Else - SRB2 Edition
How fast can you run from the fox?
As the name gives out, LTOE consists of escaping from Tails as fast as you can.
This was inspired by GT Koopa's Sonic 2 hack rom, but has quite a few differences due to it being completely custom code.
First of all, the timer doesn't go down. However, once it hits the set time [default 25 seconds], Sonic will instantly die.
The transitions are also not as smooth, and you have to go through a score screen each time you successfully escape. This is due to SRB2's own limitations.
However, this version has quite the customization with its commands that can make the experience much harder:
I hope you enjoy this mod as much as I did making it!

However, this version has quite the customization with its commands that can make the experience much harder:
ltoe: Toggles the mod functioning at all. This command is automatically ignored when there's no one following you, your follower isn't Tails, or you're in a boss fight. BuddyEx also doesn't count due to its bots not being players. Default on.
ltoe_time: This is the time in seconds you have to run away from Tails before you're killed. Default 25.
ltoe_lives: Changes how many lives you have while playing. 0 forces you to infinite lives, 1 gives you the normal set of lives, and 2 forces you to a single life. Default 1.
ltoe_stepitup: Makes Tails run faster. Default off.
ltoe_nothok: Disables all Thok abilities. Default off.
ltoe_time: This is the time in seconds you have to run away from Tails before you're killed. Default 25.
ltoe_lives: Changes how many lives you have while playing. 0 forces you to infinite lives, 1 gives you the normal set of lives, and 2 forces you to a single life. Default 1.
ltoe_stepitup: Makes Tails run faster. Default off.
ltoe_nothok: Disables all Thok abilities. Default off.
If your map has a boss, but you still want LTOE to run on it [e.g. if the level starts as a normal level before getting into the boss], you can make LTOE ignore its boss by adding the following line to your map header:
Lua.LTOE_IgnoreBoss = true
This will make LTOE still run in your map, even if it has a boss!
Lua.LTOE_IgnoreBoss = true
This will make LTOE still run in your map, even if it has a boss!
Golden, ARJr and katsy: For helping over at the SRB2 Discord server. I wouldn't have finished this mod without you!
GT Koopa: For making the super fun original hack rom!
