Impeccable Timing Bugged?

[Liphttam]

"Complete a timer level with only a fraction of a second to spare"
Does it require 0.1 seconds or less on the timer like the icon suggests? I tried twice on the timer level, and pulled the final switch both times after the timer showed a 1 on it. Anything under 1 is a fraction of a second, so I thought the achievement would proc.

I am not doing it a third time, this feels super bad.

It means the teleporters on earlier levels that have a timed "battery" attached to them, you need to use one of those just before the time runs out on the battery.

Like Chapter 3 all of the 5's? I know I've tried it on these, and I've rewound to just before the teleporter powers down, and it still doesn't proc

don't rewind. catch the last 0.1 second to press E and teleport before the time-limited power buffer runs out. Can be relatively more easily achieved in Chapter 3 Level 5.5

Geez, I would have kept trying the final level forever, those power-timers never registered as being in the same category to me at all, hah.

Thanks for that information y'all.

Add me to the list trying to get it on the last level. :(

The achievement does not apply to the last level. It refers to the circular-looking timers from earlier puzzles. I think they were introduced in chapter 3. It may take a couple tries to get the timing down. I had to rely on the sound of it beeping and wing it, but it does work.

I know that now, I was just counting myself among those who initially misunderstood it, so wasted time trying to get it on the last level.

I'm glad I came back to this post to see so many others who fell for the same trap as me. Makes me feel less like a dummy.
