I saw a recording of some people playing a shopper, and the way they ended their turn was by hanging from a rope until there next turn.Whats that Scheme?

It's right there in the recordings section. I don't think they used a scheme or program. It said it was a bug or something.

It's the batty-ropes patch, and odds are you are never going to get it.

Batty Ropes is closely related to the new beta patches, I think it came from Deadcode. I guess it would be good to hang from the rope during rope races, you wouldn't drown then.

 I suppose that's one "good" thing about my degree (aero engineering), there aren't too many terms/words/etc that have "alternative" meanings.
 What, like cockpits, turboshafts, thrust, nozzles, corkscrews, ram drag, payload, flaps, and wind tunnels? |

But isn't it part of the skill to know whether to risk a section of the map, and avoid drowning?
 
I've seen a battyropes recording, it looks cool but not useful. 
And since our .19 versions can emulate it, in theory there could be a way to force it.

Well, it can be useful.  In something like a pro roper or shopper, you can hang vertically above the terrain.  It's much harder to hit something floating in the air, then something rooted to the ground.

If you couldn't figure this out, the W is the worm, and the thing beneath him is the rope, followed by the platform.
