Learn how to effectively use Routine's hiding mechanics to evade hostile bots and navigate dangerous environments. This guide covers crouching, finding cover, and avoiding detection.

This guide details how to utilize the hiding mechanics in Routine, focusing on stealth and evasion to survive encounters with hostile automatons.

Key Mechanics:

• Crouching: Press CTRL to crouch, allowing you to get under low obstacles and reduce your visibility.
• Finding Cover: Utilize environmental objects such as desks, planters, and corners to break line of sight with enemies.
• Evasion: When detected or when a threat is imminent, use running (SHIFT) and quick movements to reach a hiding spot or escape the area.
• Hiding Spots: Specific areas, like under desks or behind large objects, are crucial for avoiding patrols.
• Environmental Interaction: Some gates and doors can be opened or bypassed using the C.A.T. tool, which can also be used to distract or disable certain threats indirectly.

WARNING: Direct combat is not possible against most hostile bots. Stealth and evasion are your primary means of survival. Always be aware of your surroundings and potential hiding places.
