Signal 01 / Watch one full rotation first
Watch one full rotation first
The round is complete when the rotating paint target has been painted across every safe firing window. Watch one complete rotation before firing and mark the longest safe unpainted arc. Use short bursts that end before a protected obstacle reaches the firing line. As the remaining gaps shrink, observation time becomes more valuable than holding the input longer.
What to notice
Watch one complete rotation before firing and mark the longest safe unpainted arc. Use short bursts that end before a protected obstacle reaches the firing line. As the remaining gaps shrink, observation time becomes more valuable than holding the input longer.
Signal 02 / Time your bursts to the safe arc
Time your bursts to the safe arc
Start by observing one full rotation and noting the length of the clearest unpainted arc before holding fire. Hold click or touch to paint and release to stop the stream.
Input to expect
Hold click or touch to paint and release to stop the stream.
Signal 03 / Release earlier when gaps shrink
Release earlier when gaps shrink
Switch to shorter bursts if the obstacle repeatedly reaches the firing line before you release. If the obstacle repeatedly interrupts a burst, release earlier and divide the same arc into smaller windows. Do not increase firing time simply because less paint remains; the safe interval may also be getting shorter.
A smaller retry
If the obstacle repeatedly interrupts a burst, release earlier and divide the same arc into smaller windows. Do not increase firing time simply because less paint remains; the safe interval may also be getting shorter.
Signal 04 / Two quick checks before the first burst
Two quick checks before the first burst
What should the first firing pass look like?
Watch one full rotation before pressing anything, note the longest unpainted arc, and fire in short bursts that end before a protected section reaches the line.
Why does paint keep getting cut short mid-burst?
The safe interval is probably shrinking as the round goes on. Release earlier and split the same arc into smaller windows instead of holding longer, because less paint left does not mean more safe time.
