Abstract: A method obtains multiple recorded instances of play through a virtual environment and generating the virtual environment through which progress may be made by a player. At a first elapsed time, a position of the player is determined within the virtual environment. At the first elapsed time, data indicating a position within the virtual environment is obtained, and a difference between the obtained position and the determined position of the player is calculated. If the difference exceeds a first threshold, the method searches for a second recorded instance of play meeting criteria where, at the first elapsed time, the data indicates a position within the environment whose difference from the determined position does not exceed a second threshold. If a second recorded instance of play meets the criteria, a graphical element is incorporated into the environment at the position obtained from the first elapsed time within the second recorded instance.
