This guide will show you how to customize or completely remove the pre-round countdown timer in Aimlabs, following the latest user interface updates.

The countdown timer appears before most tasks and is designed to give players a moment to prepare. However, some players prefer to remove or shorten it for a more immediate experience.

Accessing Timer Settings

All relevant timer settings are located within the Settings menu.

1. Launch Aimlabs.
2. Click the Settings (Gear) icon in the top right corner of the main menu.

3. Navigate to the Game tab.

Editing the Countdown Duration

You can adjust the length of the countdown timer (in seconds) from the Gameplay settings.

1. In the Quick Settings menu
2. Locate the setting labeled Countdown Duration.
3. Press on the displayed value (the default is typically 3.0s) and enter your desired duration or use the slider.
   1. To shorten the timer: Enter a lower value (e.g., 1.0 or 0.5).
   2. To lengthen the timer: Enter a higher value.
4. Note: The minimum possible duration is typically 0.0 seconds, which effectively removes the visible countdown.
