Not seeing how to do this one. There's no heat in g-mode, and if you CF, theres no way to exit g-mode with x-ray

Use the acid. The instant autoreserve triggers, G-Mode ends, so triggering in acid is mostly the same as using heat in that you have a few options:

  • Buffer X-Ray to negate reserve trigger heat damage
  • Pause Abuse so you can leave the acid before triggering.
  • Or just tank the reserve-trigger heat and the short acid dip.

The similarity is why I used the heat trigger helper but maybe it'll help to expand it out and make it more clear that this is an acid trigger.

The main problem is that h_heatTriggerRModeSparkInterrupt includes a canRModePauseAbuseSparkInterrupt option which wouldnt work. But, I also found the description confusing. Reading it again it might be fine, but it could more explicitly say that the acid is used to interrupt.

I found the acid interrupt to be a bit tricky, because when you try to spark your hitbox shrinks a bit, so you need the acid to be very close when attempting to spark. But it very well could just be that I'm bad at that type of movement.

If you crouch then spark just as the acid hits samus, the crouch moves her up enough that you dont take any acid damage in the reserve trigger (with varia on you can lose 0 of your energy during the trigger.)

Hopefully the description is clearer now. For the logic part of it, I couldn't think of a better way to show that it's an acid interrupt than to stick an acidFrame requirement right before the reserve trigger.

You were right, I must have accidentally laid a PB after the CF which was what was preventing pausing
