Hi everyone! So I've been messing around with learning how to feasibly do this meme run, but I have noticed that there's a couple foot soldiers (namely in Stage 1) who I cannot despawn. I also don't think there's a way to progress through some parts of these stages without squishing them. My question is: should it be allowed to crush those undespawnable foot soldiers, like how it's allowed to destroy the unavoidable barriers? And if it's not, does anyone here know any tips on how to avoid/despawn those enemies?

Thank you all and have a good day ^^

Some small soldiers must be eliminated, which can't be avoided. But there is a crossing at the 6th pass where small soldiers can't be eliminated.🙂

What exactly do you mean by the "6th pass"? The very last stage of the game, or a section in the first stage?

It's the gate in front of the first black car at level 6. The soldier in the middle can pass through the gap on both sides without hurting the soldier.

But all the remaining checkpoints, the small soldiers in the middle of the gate must be eliminated.

it should be possible to despawn all soldiers. they are low priority. each enemy bullet consumes an object slot (there are 16 total), so bring enemies with you vertically that can move (e.g. red tanks), is a feasible method for fillling the sprite slots to avoid infantry spawns
