🎯 Tracking Aim Training

Moving Target Tracking & Smooth Aim Practice
⚡ Quick Start
Keep the crosshair on the moving target for as much of the session as possible.
Follow the target smoothly rather than making repeated large corrections.
Use Tracking Accuracy, Avg Error, Stability, and Longest Lock to compare matching runs.

📘 Detailed Instructions

How to Train

  • Choose a session length, target size, and movement speed, then press Start Training. Movement Pattern is available under Advanced Settings.
  • After the countdown, keep the crosshair centered on the moving target. With a mouse or trackpad, simply move the pointer — no clicking or holding is required.
  • On a touchscreen, touch and drag anywhere in the field to move the crosshair like a trackpad. Your finger controls relative movement rather than sitting on the target, and lifting then re-touching keeps the crosshair where it was.
  • With a pen or stylus, aim directly where the pen points.
  • The target turns green while you are locked on. The Current Lock timer and bar along the bottom of the field show how long you have kept the lock alive.
  • Keep making small corrections instead of waiting for the target to get far away.
  • Press Escape or the Pause button to pause. Both the clock and target stop while paused.

What the Metrics Mean

  • Tracking Accuracy: the percentage of active session time that the crosshair center is inside the target.
  • Time on Target: the total number of seconds the crosshair center remains inside the target.
  • Longest Lock: your longest uninterrupted stretch with the crosshair inside the target. Pausing breaks the current lock.
  • Avg Cursor Error: the average center-to-center distance between your crosshair and the target. Lower is better.
  • Stability: a 0–100 measure of how consistent your tracking error is across the run. Higher means your distance from the target changes less erratically.

Using the Settings

  • Target Size: smaller targets reduce the margin for tracking error and increase precision demand.
  • Movement Speed: Slow, Standard, Fast, and Insane progressively increase how quickly you must update the crosshair position. Insane is a demanding top-end tracking pace while keeping a more manageable step up from Fast.
  • Movement Pattern: Smooth Drift changes direction gradually, Erratic makes stronger unpredictable direction changes while preserving motion continuity, and Circular Orbit adds direction variation and subtle wobble so repeat runs are less identical.
  • Session Length: changes how long you sustain continuous tracking. Use the same length for direct comparisons.
  • Progression is stored separately for Mouse/trackpad, Touch, and Pen. The first accepted gameplay pointer locks the input category for that session.

🎯 How to Actually Improve

  • Watch the target itself and let the crosshair follow it rather than staring at the crosshair.
  • Use smooth corrections. Large repeated over-corrections usually raise Avg Cursor Error and lower Stability.
  • Keep the same settings until you can raise Tracking Accuracy while also bringing Avg Cursor Error down.
  • If accuracy is low, use a larger target or slower movement. If accuracy is consistently strong, increase movement speed or reduce target size one step at a time.
  • Use Smooth Drift to build basic control, then use Erratic or Circular Orbit to practice different movement-reading demands.
  • Keep your mouse sensitivity and physical setup consistent when you want meaningful same-settings comparisons.
