Editing Dodging

Basically put, dodging is moving your tank (usually done best with the mouse), in a pattern as to avoid getting shot by another tank.

==How to dodge efficiently==

If you are going to be joining a [[Leagues|league]], or even just playing at a public [[server]], you need to learn how to dodge in order to:

1) Stay alive

2) Get a good [[Scoreboard|score]]. If you can't avoid the shots, then you can't kill the other tank.

It is almost required to learn to dodge by looking at the [[radar]], since you can see 360 degrees around your tank, instead of the 60 degrees your view can display. You can also dodge more accurately by using the [[radar]], since the shot paths can be adjusted to show where a shot will go before it hits you (see the example from above).

[[Dodging]] is recommended over just [[jumping]] away from shots, since your tank hangs, uncontrollable in the air for about 4 seconds while jumping. This makes you EXTREMELY vulnerable to any other tanks in the area. If you jump while playing a [[Leagues|league]] match, it almost always means you are going to encounter death. If you have to jump, try to jump onto a building, or behind the tank that is shooting at you, so he/she'll have to turn around.

If you are dodging with a mouse, I would recommend making your mouse faster in the control panel settings of your OS. I would also recommend making your mousebox smaller. This allowed the mouse to move the tank from side to side faster, and then you will be able to dodge with greater ease.


==Ways to combat dodging==

If you are playing on a map with no jumping (like [[Ducati]] or [[Pillbox]]), then try to fire spreads of shots towards the tank. This will make it hard/impossible for them to dodge at close range. 

If you are playing at a [[server]] with jumps (we'll say [[jumping]], [[rico]], 3 shots), fire two of your shots at the tank. Then, when they turn back from [[dodging]] your bullets, fire the third shot at them. This usually causes the tank to jump, where you can easily take them out.

==Other Tips==

I'll leave the rest for you to figure out ;)
