Describe the Bug

Sonic misses a ballon he's meant to hit that should send him into a rainbow ring to beat the level. The issue fixes itself if you cap the game at 30fps. The main problem is this is the only way to get an S-Rank in this level, making it impossible at 60fps.

This issue also happens on Xbox Series consoles with FPS boost enabled.

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the bug:

  1. Go to [DLC] Rooftop Run Act 5
  2. Take the fast top path until the end when the rainbow ring is meant to throw you into a balloon that sends you into another rainbow ring
  3. Sonic goes above the balloon and misses the rainbow ring and dies

Research direction

Start by reproducing DLC Rooftop Run Act 5 on the fast top route at 60 FPS and 30 FPS, using the linked footage for comparison. Investigate the balloon and rainbow-ring sequence at the end of the route; done means Sonic follows the intended path and can achieve an S-Rank at 60 FPS.
