I'm kind of losing my mind now. I've been hammering away at the first section of stage 1 for almost a week and I cannot get 2nd route consistently, or at all most of the time. There's a lot of varying information out there and I'm finding it unhelpful. I've watched replay after replay including my own when I do unlock the route and I'm starting to believe the stars have to be right or something:
I'm full red gauge before the first silo and stay there.
I kill every silo before any tank hits them.
I collect every bee flashing white.
What am I missing? Haaalpp
