Frequently asked questions

Why is reset timing tricky?

Too much buffer wastes slots, too little means a rushed reset and a bad next-group experience — automation optimizes the balance.

Difficulty-based resets?

Harder rooms with more props need longer resets — per-room reset times keep each accurate.
