Shift control device and gear shifting device

A shifting control device for a human-powered vehicle, comprising:

• a controller configured to control an actuator of a gear shifting device to arrange a chain guide of the gear shifting device on a plurality of gear positions,
• the controller being configured to execute a multistage gear shift operation to accomplish a movement between at least three gear positions in a gear shift direction,
• the controller being configured to control the actuator to move the chain guide from a first current gear position to a first target gear position in a gear shift direction and to temporarily arrange the chain guide on a first temporary position in the multistage gear shift operation before stopping the chain guide at the first target gear position,
• the controller being configured to execute a single gear shift operation to accomplish a movement between two gear positions in the gear shift direction,
• the controller being configured to control the actuator to move the chain guide from a second current gear position to a second target gear position in the gear shift direction and to temporarily arrange the chain guide on a second temporary position in the single gear shift operation before stopping the chain guide at the second target gear position, and
• the first temporary position being offset from the second temporary position in the gear shift direction if the first target gear position and the second target gear position correspond to the same gear position of the plurality of gear positions.
