Take Profit (TP)

Take Profit is an optional mechanism that lets players exit early when they've earned enough.

How It Works​

  1. Set a Target: When joining, specify a target profit amount
  2. Play Normally: Compete and earn bounty from kills
  3. Auto-Exit: If your earnings hit the target, you automatically cash out
  4. Orb Removed: Your orb is removed from the arena

When TP Triggers​

TP is checked after each frame's kill payouts. When your total earnings reach or exceed your target, you automatically cash out and your orbs are removed from the arena.

Benefits and Trade-offs​

Benefits​

  • Lock in profits: Secure earnings before elimination
  • Risk management: Limit downside on high-stake tiers
  • Strategic play: Exit after a big kill streak

Trade-offs​

  • Miss winner bonus: Can't win the survival pool
  • Reduced maximum: Cap your potential upside
  • Early exit: No chance for more kills

TP Presets​

Edge Cases​

TP vs Kill (Same Frame)​

  • Kill resolves first
  • TP cannot "save" you from death
  • If killed before TP triggers, you don't cash out

Multiple TP Same Frame​

  • Allowed
  • All qualifying players exit
  • Finalization happens after pruning

Final Survivor​

  • When only 1 player remains, TP is skipped
  • Winner receives survival pool + remaining bounty instead

TP and Splits​

  • TP applies per owner, not per orb
  • All of a player's orbs are pruned on TP

Example Scenario​

Round with 10 players, 1 SOL entry each:
- Player pool: 8 SOL (80% of 10 SOL)
- Bounty pot: 5.6 SOL (70% of 8 SOL)

Player A sets TP target: 0.5 SOL
Player A gets 2 early kills: earns 0.6 SOL
→ TP triggers
→ Player A exits with 0.6 SOL secured
→ Player A's orbs removed from arena

Frame Processing Order​

The game processes events in strict order:

  1. Elimination attribution → pay kill bounty
  2. Inheritance (if enabled)
  3. TP checks → emit triggers
  4. Prune TP'd orbs
  5. Finalize if alive ≤ 1
