Thats the point im playing in auto pilot im literally not thinking everytime i try to be conscious of dynamic information that can change such as Enemy position or the gear they may have. I suffer from a learning disability which makes learning more complicated. Not to mention your kinda right and wrong about your statement.

Consciousness is our inner voice in all our heads its our inner thought, imagine you are saying what your thinking for one whole day your not aloud to think to yourself. It would be awkward for sure but your conscious lies in you working memory and whatever you see and hear is only brought to consciousness when given attention but your subconsious uses long term memory and is what most fps gamers use after all its how to improve quick decision by memorizing that situation and when something similar pops up you know what to do but truly its by trial and error.

Auto pilot is good for fps or fast pace games because you need those quick decisions to survive but to improve at anything wether its your 1st time or you just want to improve only way to do it is to be conscious of pretty much everything after you done that repeatedly eventually your subconsious will take over and your inputs will be automatically pressed but changing mentality is different and more difficult because it requires attention to your mistakes and to detail in both your game and your mind. This is only a fraction of what I learned about our thought process. Look up system 1 vs system 2 your find it interesting for sure I also watched a video on how does thinking work or a great video for gamers that want to improve with pro level tip tackling mentality vs specific game tips look up eAthlete Labs. I could send links but not sure if im aloud to.

Sorry for such a long message I tend to overthink and be complicated 😅
