Some programs that are timing sensitive will recommend or require that Switch be put into a stabilized state where it is less likely to jitter and drop button presses.
This is most important to the day skippers, but it is also applicable to fault-intolerant programs like MassRelease and EggSuperCombined2.
To maximize program stability:
- Disconnect all controllers and Joy-Cons which are known to drift. (Don’t forget the attached Joy-Cons!)
- Disconnect from the internet. Unplug the Ethernet cable if you’re wired up.
- Turn on airplane mode. To run docked, undock the Switch, turn on airplane mode, then redock. The Switch will remain in airplane mode after redocking.
- Restart the Switch if it’s been playing for a while.
Empirical evidence seems to suggest that completely isolating the Switch from outside interference (by shutting off all network traffic) improves stability and reduces the frequency of errors.
