In this video, I explain the steps taken to solve a specific optimization problem for the Paper Mario: TTYD TAS.
Room footage was made possible thanks to https://noclip.website
This was an incredibly fun video to make. Having thought of this idea alongside TASPlasma almost a year ago, it's been long overdue for a video of its own.

GP3 from a war last night.
Table: http://gyazo.com/deceb421c642995ae1c963f6de1dc7b5.png
We were all skypeless the whole war, they were using a lot of shocks gp1 and 2 so Lew started bagging to try to turn the scores around.
I did terrible gp1 and 2 because I was typing on straightaways and in cannons trying to resolve some issues with our IL match that took place earlier that day, but I think I finished the war nicely and made up for my lack of points the first 2 GPs.")

On April Fools Day 2023, Epik95 posted a video showing off a new way to get out-of-bounds and reach the parking lot. I remember myself waking up that day and automatically assuming that every video posted was just an April fools video. However, Epik95 proceeded to post the ghost file for this time in the Discord, after which we quickly realized this was a legitimate record: https://i.gyazo.com/83c9166f54e71b18523e8652414bc236.png
This, like the previous OOB entry method, utilizes whats known as the Horizontal Wall Glitch. Most wall collision is placed vertically (duh) but sometimes it is placed horizontally. Under certain circumstances, colliding with these horizontal walls will temporarily allow you to bypass vertical wall collision. We are able to bypass collision for just enough frames to fall past the side railing and into the parking lot section.
This TAS opts for Daisy + Mach Bike as opposed to Baby Daisy + Bullet Bike. With Daisy, we were able to obtain a clip around 5 frames earlier than we were able to with Baby Daisy. In addition, The Mach Bikes relatively faster speed allowed us to save time by charging a MT after the second shroom, whereas the Bullet Bike could not save time with this. We are uncertain about laps 2 and 3 in terms of which vehicle outperforms the other, as it has been shown that Bullet Bike can take tighter turns. Overall, it may be necessary to produce a second TAS which uses Baby Daisy + Bullet Bike in order to determine which character+vehicle combo is superior.
If youre curious about the mechanics behind meeting lap count requirements in the parking lot, please take a look at my 95% video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y5M_K0ah5Q
Personal Note: This is the first track I ever created a TAS for. The oldest documented TAS I have on this track dates back to January 2011. After more than 12 years, Im glad to have helped cut off 16 seconds.
Fun Fact: The exact finish time of this TAS is 22.7139921. Since the game rounds times up, we managed to get .714 instead of .715 by only 8 millionths of a second!
