+ | **Q: How do you deal with Analog deadzones or controller weirdness? | ||
+ | |||
+ | **A:** Certain diagonals can cause snake to walk instead of run. Be extra careful that sticks are neutral when plugging in the controller. Also there is a possibility your controller port is shaky or dirty. Thorough cleaning of the ports is a good idea, and deliberate straight smooth insertions at all times are a good practice. | ||

+ | **Q: How does the prison skip work?** | ||
+ | |||
+ | **A:** When exiting the prison, Johnny is supposed to be knocked out in some way or back in the bathroom through an unskippable cutscene. However, if you pick up the gear with a very precise roll, a bonk setup with a more lenient roll, or throw Johnny to the ground and immediately exit the room and re-enter the room, you will skip a story flag. This story flag skip allows you to avoid the cutscene and codec at Meryl' | ||
