Punching a guard out takes 60 frames (1 second). *Open the transceiver to farm ammo and/or rations. *Doors have a frame rule, they open every 4 frames. Every screen has a coin flip, so to speak. *Guard Spawns run on a timer. *Doing menus at the wrong time can cause lag frames. Menu while elevators are moving or in small rooms, typically. *You can hold a direction at boss screens to move one position before the dialog. *Best time to ration is during an equipment switch, and once you reach Rank * * * * ====Jungle==== *First guard, if he alerts, turn left and punch at the tree tip. *Second guards, Enter further to the right. Watch for left guard to turn, then go over and punch him 3 times (bad pattern) *Move slightly left around dog. *At hut, if the guard turns, you need to turn tight around wall. You can wiggle at the wall to press against it. *As screen transitions to the three trucks hold right to avoid early alert. Once moving right then move down to middle left truck for Card 1 *Wiggle down right exiting Card #1 truck. Enter the right truck to go to Building #1. *Top left truck has a ration, can pick 3 up. *Stutter step to delay 12 frames to run by the guard w/o taking damage. ====Building #1==== ===Floor 1=== *Go upright to the Gas Mask room. *Run to pick up, don't bother with guard. *Hold left going out of gas mask room to avoid damage *Run along the top wall. *Hold the right wall as you go up the leftmost hall. *Elevator Guard, bad pattern punch the guard once, run around.

Equip Card 2 to exit. * Go to the door right of the hut (Card 2). * Do a menu (Card 1) at the first wall to potentially refresh the pattern. Bad pattern means you need to punch the guard.
