Options¶
Maneuver:¶
How to move around overworld to trigger an encounter. Pick the one that's most appropriate for your location:
- Move left/right. (no bias)
- Move left/right. (bias left)
- Move left/right. (bias right)
- Move up/down. (no bias)
- Move up/down. (bias up)
- Move up/down. (bias down)
The "bias" will make it travel in that direction a little bit more. So if you're standing against a wall that's unbounded on the other side, you'll want to bias in the direction of the wall to avoid drifting away from it.
Move Duration:¶
Travel for this long before changing directions.
Take Video:¶
Whether to take a video of the encounter if it is a shiny.
Go Home when Done:¶
After finding a shiny, go to the Switch Home to idle. Turn this off for unattended streaming so that your viewers can see the shiny.
