So yeah, I saved 2 frames off the old World Record :) and unless some new trick gets found this mission isn't going to be done any faster.
Frame #1: New trick that I found (That Brianpso already knew about :P) which allows you to Spiral Upper on the first input frame
(done but Spiral Upper-ing as you restart a level, pretty much only useful in this mission)
Frame #2 I was able to get the second piece a frame faster with more optimization, unfortunately I couldn't do this for piece 3 :/

![TAS: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Any% in 39:20.10 [Visualized]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/67JANjM_nDc/hqdefault.jpg "TAS: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Any% in 39:20.10 [Visualized]
Welcome to the Visualized version of the Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Any% TAS! Please watch in 60FPS for a full experience 👀
This video was created using an external program to read and display controller inputs/memory addresses alongside the game. The gameplay is identical to the 2020 TAS of Battle for Bikini Bottom, no improvements have been made since its release.
RTA Standard Timing (File Select to Final Cutscene): 39:20.100
TAS Standard Timing (Power-on to “Last Input”): 39:43.750
This TAS was created using Dolphin Emulator. While Xbox is the fastest console to play Battle for Bikini Bottom, it has limited TAS tools. Compared to Xbox, approximately 5 minutes were lost due to GameCube’s slow load screens, deaths, and oob-respawns throughout this run. A perfect conversion of these inputs to Xbox would yield a 34:xx time. (The lack of lag-based tricks also loses some amount of time).

There are a couple of issues with the input display, as the information used to map the display is taken from the games pressed and release events in memory. Because of how the B Button is handled when skipping textboxes, it unfortunately does not display on the input viewer when text boxes are skipped. There is also a bug relating to lag which can cause a button to not register as released, I believe this only happens twice in the video, during SBA the Start Button displays as held for a couple seconds when it shouldnt, and towards the end of Kelp Forest the Z Button does the same.
Thank you: P3BK4C, THC98, Yoshifan for building off each others work to create the tool used to visualize memory and controller inputs.

This is a tool assisted speedrun of Radical Highway mission 1, completed with an in-game time of 1:29.00.
Played on Dolphin version 3.0-735 using the NTSC-U version of Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.
Re-records: 15512
The old TAS world record was held by me - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heXL-Ywet2U
The non-TAS world record is held by Son1cgu1tar - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bQmB34PAB0
A few new minor tricks have been found since my last TAS of this level, but most of the time save came from far more extreme optimization. Obviously sub 1:29 is possible, but I wasnt able to achieve such a goal.
If you have any questions please ask them in a comment. Level requests count as questions by the way :)")
