Guide to Manually Completing the Tickspeed Autobuyer for Antimatter Dimensions

Tips:

* EXPORT YOUR SAVES AND STORE THE LAST KNOWN GOOD ONE SOMEWERE SAFE! This challenge is a huge pain in the backside and if you mess up, you really don't want to have to repate a leg of it.
* Do the first 3 rows of Infinity and store as many points ahead of time as possible to stack up the bonus for unspent points. This is a long challenge and this can greatly reduce how long you spend staring at the screen.
* Turn off autobuyers if you're using the below strategy. Yes you can run autobuyers for this challenge (specifically 6 and 8), but DO NOT do that with this guide. Otherwise they'll be buying stuff and it will mess you up for sure.
* Use scientific notation in the options menu. Otherwise, this will be much harder once you reach the end of the route.

Below are hotkeys (unless otherwise noted) you have to press once you've unlocked the 8th stage. Before that, just follow the strategy and duck out when you can unlock the next stage. You will have to repeat this entire sequence many, many times. I try to note where you are likely to run into delays, but you may see more of them if you don't have a big store of infinity points stocked up. I did it with about 30 and it wasn't too bad once I got a few boosts, but it was very painful before that. Remember to use your sacrifices too. I found it best to stick to 1 galaxy.

From here, the safe-but-slow route is just to only buy n if it will cost less than n + 1 afterward. IE, only buy 7 if it will cost less than 8 afterward. Here's how much each tier's exponent goes up each time you buy that tier:

1 : 3
2 : 4
3 : 5
4 : 6
5 : 8
6 : 10
7 : 12
8 : 15

You can get fancier, but be very careful not to mess it up. The nice thing about getting them all in order from most expensive to least (8th to 1st) is you can buy 7 without going over 8, then afterward you can buy 6 without going over 7, and on down the line. IE, any time it's ok to buy 6, you know you can then buy 5, 4, 3, 2 then 1. So you can just keep repeating that pattern and occasionally shoring up places you can double-up without going over. I'm sure this isn't the fastest way to do this challenge, but short of using a script, it's probably about as easy as it gets.
