hey thanks for playing! a few folks are playing with the desktop app, but it's had some compatibility issues. happy to look into the crash if you'd like to hop into the discord's troubleshooting channel :)
detection is on a countdown, the consumables and "RF noise" (green particle effect when breaking blocks) bump the timer up by different amounts. consumables have an immediate effect when they're used, no time limits
detection has been overhauled for the next update!
