-[[Maneuvering]] is basically [[Movement]] in [[Real-Time Games]], and can be necessary either due to wanting to reach certain locations (e.g. winning [[Races]]) or due to wishing to avoid other game elements that move. The specifics of [[Game Worlds]] generally affect this but some patterns are more likely to have strong effects on [[Maneuvering]], with [[The Show Must Go On]] being the most important since it means that players may not be able to ignore performing the [[Maneuvering]]. Of the two cases, [[Evade]] can be used in the first case to make players with to avoid [[Penalties]] due to from collisions while [[Chargers]] and [[Pick-Ups]] can be used to create [[Collecting]] goals. In the second case, [[Movement]] of [[Enemies]], or shots from them, can make [[Maneuvering]] more important due to the presence of [[Evade]] goals; the same applies to [[Ultra-Powerful Events]], e.g., raising bridges or rock falls, that can be perceived and avoided. [[Maneuvering]] due to the [[Movement]] of other game elements can also be done to succeed with goals to [[Capture]] or [[Herd]] something, or as part of attempting actions concerning [[Aim & Shoot]]. [[Vehicles]] offer ways to change the way [[Maneuvering]] is done temporary or over time as gameplay progresses and this can be emphasized by the presence of dedicated [[Vehicle Sections]].

 [[Maneuvering]] requires that players have some level of [[Spatial Engrossment]] in the game and this typically requires either [[First-Person Views]] or [[Third-Person Views]]. [[Challenging Gameplay]] can quite easily be achieved for [[Maneuvering]] through the specifics of these views, the speed of game elements (see [[F-Zero GX]] and the [[Wipeout series]] for examples of this), and the number the number of [[Obstacles]], and other game elements (including other players) that players need to take into consideration. The first raises the requirements on skills in [[Dexterity-Based Actions]] while the second requires [[Attention Swapping]].
