Editor

Fix placing objects via touch in editor not working sometimes (#30411 by @frenzibyte)

Collapse sample point indicators into dots if they cannot be displayed in full (#29896 by @OliBomby)

Improve visual appearance of mania selection blueprints (#30512 by @bdach)

This isn't by all means supposed to be the end product, it's 80% of the target result in my mind in 20% of the time. Placement blueprints are all unchanged because attempting to access anything skinnable in the placement blueprint, before there is a DHO placed in an actual column, is hell. So I'm leaving that for later.

Fix osu!mania notes disappearing on seek to their end time (#30755 by @bdach)

Change some beatmap default settings to match stable (#30826 by @peppy)

• Countdown should be off by default
• Samples match playback rate also

Do not deselect objects when control-clicking without hitting anything (#30947 by @bdach)

I checked a few apps to see what they do in this type of scenario and it's a very mixed bag but I think this behaviour makes sense.

Gameplay (osu!)

Implement new osu! mod "Bloom" (#30299 by @jhk2601)

This mod dynamically adjusts the cursor size as your combo increases, similar to how No Scope functions. The idea is for it to play as a sort of "reverse flashlight". I think it plays well and adds an interesting dynamic where your cursor essentially becomes an obstacle you have to work around sometimes, see attached video to get a better idea.

  • Intended to be done long ago but was seemingly forgotten (see relevant discussion). Some decisions made in this PR may be questionable (such as removing the "show log overlay" and "bypass front-to-back" settings), but I'm opening this PR just to shine back on doing this.
