Why these durations suit R.E.P.O.
An 800 ms walk moves you a few steps while you carry something, and side and back steps stay at 400 ms. Jump, tumble and interact are short taps. Sprint holds for 1,200 ms on its own screen so it overlaps walking; a sprint, a jump and a tumble arriving together can turn into a tumble launch.
Connect TikFinity to R.E.P.O.
- Open TikFinity Desktop on the PC running R.E.P.O., close the browser version and finish Setup and TikTok login. Capture the game in LIVE Studio or OBS.
- In Actions & Events, create an action with Simulate keystrokes set to W, turn on game compatibility mode and complete any install prompt. Enter 800 ms; 1,000 ms = 1 second. Duplicate it for the other keys in the table.
- Put W and S on screen 1, A and D on screen 2, jump, tumble and interact on screen 3, and sprint on screen 4. Each screen keeps its own queue. Add each screen URL as a Link source in LIVE Studio or a Browser source in OBS.
- Create a Sending a specific gift event for each gift and attach its action. Keep Repeat with gift combos off and queues short, because a fragile vase does not survive a long backlog.
- In the truck before a level, press the play icon on the forward action and click into the game within 5 seconds. The Event Simulator does not press keys, so test each action with its play button.
R.E.P.O. stream tips
- Tumble is the funniest gift in the game. Expect it to land while you carry something expensive.
- A tumble launch is a sprint, a jump and then Q. Gift timing makes it hit and miss, which is half the fun.
- Pause events near monsters if you want to survive, or leave them on for a better clip.
- Keep the walking holds short in tight corridors, where valuables break against walls.
- Your crew can still grab the loot with you, so agree who carries the fragile items.
Frame your R.E.P.O. stream
Keep the legend at the bottom left, clear of the health and stamina display. Label Q as Tumble so nobody sends it by accident.
The key boxes use CSS, with no game artwork. Alert display time controls alerts and TTS separately from key holds.
