{{SL Spoiler Warning}}
This page is an FAQ for all questions regarding [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT]] and [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT True Heroes]], the first and second parts of the mobile game. Note that this list is not meant to be nor exhaustive, nor does it necessarily have all the answers you need; however, as the need for information arises, more may be added.

=FAQ=
== Why is it "NOISZ STΔRLIVHT" and "LIVHT MY WΔY" and not "NOISZ STARLIGHT" and "LIGHT MY WAY"? ==
NOISZ STΔRLIVHT is very much themed around the number 4; there are four members of [[STΔRLIVHT]], and counting [[NOISZ (Game)|Ignition]], [[NOISZ re:VERSE|re:||VERSE]] and [[2ECONDS TO STΔRLIVHT]], it's the fourth game in the series; "IV" is 4 in Roman numerals, and the capital delta Δ is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. The meaning of four members of STΔRLIVHT does become more apparent later on, especially as it connects with the story of the later games.

==How do I build this style? What should I put my stat points into?==
Check the [[NOISZ_STΔRLIVHT/Styles/Builds|Builds]] page for a guide on style building.

==What music plays in the story mode menu of SL?==
[[light my way]] by [[:Category:Songs featuring Miyolophone|Miyolophone]] feat. [[:Category:Songs featuring chiisa|chiisa]]; it can streamed online, or obtained physically on the Clash of Twilight CD.

==What music plays in the main menu of SL?==
[[LIVHT MY WΔY]] ([[:Category:Songs featuring Iris|Iris]] Remix). However, this is unreleased, and can't be heard anywhere.

==The story BGM isn't on the soundtrack releases. Who made it and where can I listen?==
The story BGM is by Jamphibious, and most of it can be found [https://soundcloud.com/jordan-reed/sets/noisz-strlivht-story-bgm-selections here on SoundCloud].

==Why is the gameplay lagging so much? How do I fix that?==
Firstly, check the game's minimum requirements to make sure your device has the specs needed; if it does, check the audio buffer and gameplay FX settings in [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Options|Options]].

==Why can't I access the shop?==
The shop cannot be accessed while you are offline; check your internet connection.

==What is Cake Mode?==
On a character's birthday, scanning a QR Code from birthday art posted on the official [https://bsky.app/profile/anarch.games Bluesky page] will gift boosted [[NOISZ_STΔRLIVHT/Items|item drops]], Style XP and Bond XP in that character's folder, as if you were using 1 [[NOISZ_STΔRLIVHT/COINZ|COINZ]] boost every play, but for free.

==Will there be a custom song/beatmap editor?==
There are no plans for a custom song/beatmap editor.

==Who is Hitori?==
[[Sumire Hitori|Sumire]] has DID ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociative_identity_disorder Dissociative Identity Disorder]); [[Hitori]] is one of her alternate personalities (often referred to as "alters").

==Why do they sometimes talk in lowercase?==
This is colloquially referred to as "Discord speak"; this is not incorrect capitalisation or an error, but a way of conveying casual speech.

==How do I get the TRANSRIVHTS [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Titles|title]]?==
Clear a song with the Hitori Fan title, and then another with the Hakuno Fan title. Requires Challenges and Heart and Spade Passes to get the prerequisite titles.

==How do I increase the level of the Conqueror [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Titles|title]]?==
To level the Conqueror title up, equip it and clear 3 songs of a certain difficulty back to back.

==I activated my Burst, and suddenly died. What happened?==
If your SPC [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Stats|Stat]] has been lowered to F, either by insufficient [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Difficulty and Power|PW]] or just by being naturally F, using your [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Styles#NOISZ_Burst|NOISZ Burst]] will kill you immediately.

==Why do I die so fast with the [[Grace Kamenashi/Styles#tabber-tabpanel-DIVINE_JUDGMENT-0|DIVINE JUDGMENT]] style? Doesn't it have high HP?==
DIVINE JUDGMENT's ability is that each hit taken per verse will lower all stats by 1; this includes HP, and taking hits will quickly lower the HP stat down to F, where one hit will kill you.

==Can I get the Ephemeral Event styles if I missed the events?==
You can, by purchasing the [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Passes|Event Pass]].

==What is the currency required for Lost Data? How do I get it?==
These are [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Items|Ashes]]; they can be obtained by completing certain story chapters for the first time, incinerating items, or clearing songs within [[Events/Forge of Antiphon|Forge of Antiphon]].

==[[File:What the cat.png|25px]] Who is that cat I keep seeing everywhere?==
That's <span class="meowfly">[["What" the Cat]]</span>! 

==I got a new phone. Where did my SL purchases go?==
Use the [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Options|Restore Purchase]] option to restore them once you've linked your Apple/Google Play account.

==Why aren't the next SL story chapters appearing?==
In the case of [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter 6.I|Chapter 6.I]], complete [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter 5.IV|Chapter 5.IV]], and a folder should appear in the middle of the folder select; 6.I can be accessed from here. If it doesn't appear, play some songs and come back later.

In the case of [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT True Heroes|True Heroes]], once you complete [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter 6.II|Chapter 6.II]] and view [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Dead End|Dead End]], go back and complete [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter 5.I|Chapter 5.I]] again on any difficulty. This will lock in your story flags for the rest of the game, so make sure your flags are set correctly before proceeding to True Heroes.

==Where can I replay [[Insomnia (MonstDeath Remix)]] and [[Quicksilver (NOISZ STΔRLIVHT)|Quicksilver]]?==
They are unlocked for free play alongside the [[:Category:Joker Folder Songs|Joker folder]] by clearing [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter -1.I|Chapter -1.I]].

==Where is [[Forged In Darkest Abyss]] in [[NOISZ_STΔRLIVHT/Events/Forge_of_Antiphon|Forge of Antiphon]]?==
It's only playable in Iteration 9 if you have the [[Events/Forge of Antiphon/Modules#Heart of the Challenger|Heart of the Challenger]] Module.

==If I play an Overload song in Forge of Antiphon without having unlocked it in normal play, will I be able to play it in normal play afterwards?==
Yes.

==Can I RS-DASH through void bullets?==
No; attempting to do so will kill you.

==For [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Events/Forge of Antiphon/Modules|modules]] that lower a stat to F like Heat 444% and Lunatic Heart, can that stat be raised again with other modules?==
No, those stats will remain at F no matter what.

==Why is there more than one Chapter 5?==
The phrase "Chapter 5" has been used to refer to three different pieces of game content in [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT]].

First, the fifth chapter of [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT]] False Timeline (see [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story#Chapter 5|here]]). This was released November 19, 2022.

Second, "Chapter 5" has been mentioned in [https://twitter.com/noiszgame/status/1664844379519893507 this announcement] as a way of referring to the chance to reset one's story flags in False Timeline before NOISZ STΔRLIVHT True Heroes begins. The confirmation/reset point is located in [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT/Story/Chapter 5.I|Chapter 5.I]]. This was released on November 19, 2023.

Third, "Chapter 5" refers to the first chapter in NOISZ STΔRLIVHT True Heroes, featuring [[Back In Business]], [[Benighted Rewaking]], [[Crossroads of the Brave]], and [[halved halved halved]]. This was released on December 31, 2023.

==Can I reset my choices more than once in Chapter 5.I?==
Yes, but you cannot reset after confirming your choices.

==Can I reset my story flags after confirming my choices in Chapter 5.I?==
No, you cannot. Make sure you have seen everything you want to before you confirm your choices. Confirming your choices is a permanent decision.

==What exactly does "False Timeline" mean in the context of [[NOISZ STΔRLIVHT]]?==

|-
|"False Timeline" refers to the events experienced by [[Joker]] inside of a simulation as [[Producer]]. However, as [[Beyond (NOISZ STΔRLIVHT)]] states, these are not how the events actually played out - hence, False Timeline.
