Hookshot version

v2.0.13 (v2.0.14 came out today as a hotfix for HDR, the menu and bracketed build paths; not retested on it yet)

What kind of problem

Something else

What happened

Moving platforms don't carry Link. In the Great Deku Tree there is a stone platform that slides back and forth underneath the spikes. When Link stands on it, the platform moves away but Link doesn't move with it: he slides off and stays in the same spot instead of riding on top of the platform.

Expected: Link stays on the platform and moves with it, as in the original game.

My frame rate cap is set to 120 in the Insert menu:

vi: frame rate cap 120: pacing, the game's limiter and its time step follow it

I'm not sure the cap was already at 120 the first time I saw this, and I haven't retested at 60 yet. If it does depend on the cap, it may be the same family as #1742 (things that still step once per frame above a 60 fps cap since #1612): if the platform moves by the real-time step while Link's "carried by the platform" movement is applied per frame, or the other way round, he would slip off like this. I'll retest at a cap of 60 and report back.

Before you send it

I searched the open issues for this problem. (Nothing about moving platforms; #1742 looks related.)
I'm not attaching game files, keys, hookshot.exe, the .bin caches or saves.

Duplicate of #1742: with the Frame rate cap above 60 (120 here), some game logic still runs at the frame rate (moving platforms, cutscenes, Gohma). Set the cap to 60 (the default) for now. Please follow #1742.
