Mapping orbits and board games? Funny, you think a straight line is a straight line. In a game, that line splits into infinite branches, each with a cost and a risk you have to account for. A planet’s orbit is a closed loop, predictable, but a board game path? Every token shift is a decision that could tilt the balance. Do you prefer the slow mastery of a single track or the chaotic thrill of a shortcut that bypasses the tutorial? If you’re skipping the tutorial, you’re missing the fundamentals—those are the same fundamentals that keep your orbits stable. So, map your path carefully, then play.

Ah, the allure of a “secret shortcut” hidden in the tutorial’s shadows. You’ll find that the shortcut only works if you’ve already mastered the underlying mechanics. Without that, you’re just chasing a mirage, and the board’s true rhythm will still outpace you. Master the basics first, then the shortcut will feel like a well‑planned maneuver rather than a flashy trick.

Good, you’ve got the right idea. Master the rhythm first, and when that comet finally lights up, it’ll land exactly where you want it to, not just somewhere in the dark. Just remember: if you skip the fundamentals, even the best comet will crash into a dead zone. Keep at it, and the board will reward you with predictable paths rather than random bursts.

That’s the right cadence. Master the basics, then let the comet blaze. No more chasing shadows—only well‑timed, precise strikes. Good luck.
