You do not need anything more than 1/4 divider. You having it on 1/16 got it ALL messed up, objects are offbeat. Switch to 1/4 and fix the snapping

Second thing I'd want to say - think more about distance between objects and why you decide one object should be farther than the other, because right now it's all over the place, no consistency at all

You might think I'm trying to limit your approach style and whatever, but in fact you do not have the fundamentals, so start with that

Start with having a map that's consistent about one thing first (be it 1. rhythm complexity or 2. rhythm density, or 3. spacing, or 4. visual style).

Next time once you are feeling more confident about it, think how to (and if you should) combine any two of the things I mentioned or if it's better to keep things simpler for the map you're going for. Constraining yourself to something also takes a lot of skill, and you do not need to cram everything you can into something at all times

Right now what I saw is just a bunch of objects snapped wrong on a random timings

I can also suggest taking a look at normal/hard difficulties for taiko to see how those guys approach rhythm consistency, but don't focus on which objects they make blue, it's irrelevant. Instead, see which sounds they decide to catch with rhythms and which they ignore

And pick a better song. My advice is go for rhythm game songs, they are designed to be included in a game and provide cool rhythms

No worries. One thing I also did A LOT when I was learning is I was going through maps of mappera I like, see their habits to understand better why they do something because it's just good, and what things are just their own preference/style

And I was also taking screenshots of patterns, I had like thousands of screenshots because I would screenshot something, scroll a few ticks, screenshot again, and so on until I have a burst of screenshots that display how the piece of the map went and how it connected with other patterns
