How to Run Metal Arms
Timing
For single-segment runs, time should start when you select the difficulty level. Splits should be marked the instant you are able to continue past the stats screen at the end of a level.
For segmented runs, the time starts after the level is finish loading, when the first cutscene starts playing, and ends the instant you can continue past the stats screen at the end of a level.
Note: In-game time isn't necessarily accurate: it takes the cutscene time into account whether you skip it or not, and any time you die it resets the time to whatever it happened to be at the last checkpoint.
Glitches/Techniques
Ramp Jump
You can jump much higher if you jump right after hitting a slope.
Wrench Clipping
When moving towards a wall, use the wrench right as you hit and you will clip through when you rebuild.
Speed Sliding
When you are pushed above a certain speed, the physics change slightly and you slide across the ground. This can be done either by going down a steep slope, landing and moving forward on a slope after jumping, or being pushed into it from various vehicles or NPCs in the game (i.e. the loader, or zombiebots).
