A '''unique A press''' refers to a single circumstance under which the A button must be pressed during a run. This circumstance may occur multiple times, leading to multiple A presses; if a workaround is found for the unique A press, all of those individual A presses may be saved. | A '''unique A press''' refers to a single circumstance under which the A button must be pressed during a run.

On February 10th 2023, PapaQBall shared an idea to save the 32nd A press, to get over the first blue block in Rainbow Ride 0x using VSC from a slidekick bounce from one carpet to another carpet, then ledgegrab up on top of the blue block.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/483531058382372874/1073497643801653258 " RR Carpet VSC Attempt "]</ref> Unfortunately, the ledgegrab was too slow. However, pannenkoek2012 showed later that it would be possible to get back onto the carpet with a dive rollout on the edge of the block.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E15R10PJPlw " RR Clearing the First Glass Block using VSC "]</ref> This would save A press #31 | On February 10th 2023, PapaQBall shared an idea to save the 32nd A press, to get over the first blue block in Rainbow Ride 0x using VSC from a slidekick bounce from one carpet to another carpet, then ledgegrab up on top of the blue block.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/483531058382372874/1073497643801653258 " RR Carpet VSC Attempt "]</ref> Unfortunately, the ledgegrab was too slow.

Currently, the A press count for Bowser in the Sky and BitS reds is 3.5 and 6.5 respectively. A press #44 can be saved via a precise dive rollout from the moving orange bar to the other. This A Press is already saved without reds. The half A press can be saved too by precisely grinding the edge of the platform to get an instant double jump, and Ivan showed it's possible to use a goomba clone to save the last A press to escape the last red coin<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/743910895486238840/1119805116900446270 " BitS Goomba Clone to Escape Red Coin"]</ref>, leaving the lowest possible a press counts at 3 A presses for no reds, and 4 A presses with reds.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KHM99dYJMk <nowiki>" [SEGMENTED] SM64 RTABC - BitS w/ Reds 5xA "</nowiki>]</ref> | Currently, the A press count for Bowser in the Sky and BitS reds is 3.5 and 6.5 respectively.

This also means preforming the misalignment into the pipe to the Bowser fight, which has been proven 0.5x by Ivan178, but hasn't been proven 0x. If a repeatable setup to do Chuckya Wrong Throw is found, it would also save A Press #42. This would leave both BitS and BitS reds at 1x, however this has yet to be proven. | ||
