Key Notes Before You Start
| Key Note | Description |
|---|---|
| Failing a Delivery Resets Your Shift | Any failed delivery will restart the entire shift. Accuracy is crucial. |
| Flexible Routes | You aren't locked into the suggested route. Drive anywhere you like to optimize your time. Delivering stops out of order on 3-stop missions hasn't been fully tested. |

| Auto Drive Option | If you prefer not to manually drive to pickups, Anna's Auto Drive feature can do it for you. |
| Skill Tree Upgrades | Some reports suggest upgrading the skill tree and using a normal Honda Acty may give better results on skill missions, though this isn't fully verified. |

| No Exploits | There is no shortcut—you must complete delivery jobs normally. |
