stepsSwitch from day build to night defense
A late build action can leave the player without a weapon or position when VERITY arrives.
- 1
Call the stop
End optional construction while the team still has time to move.
- 2
Equip weapons
Reload and face the planned approach.
- 3
Hold fire lanes
Keep Turret and player sightlines free of new blocks.
- 4
Use the fallback
Move before the outer layer becomes an enclosed trap.
tableUse visible retreat triggers
Retreat decisions should be tied to the base state, not panic after every hit.
| Trigger | Action | Why |
|---|
| Outer layer breached | Move to inner line | Preserve distance and crossfire |
| Repair route occupied | Stop repairing | Avoid trading player control for one wall |
| Ammo or damage falls behind | Rotate and focus targets | Prevent multiple high-health threats stacking |
| Inner position surrounded | Exit through the planned route | Do not remain trapped by your own build |
decisionTurn the wave result into one change
Cash from surviving or defeating threats is most useful when it fixes the first failure observed in the previous wave.
Delay was too short
Buy blocks and reinforce the main approach.
Targets survived too long
Improve the weapon path or Turret placement.
