Troubleshooting
Tent is difficult to pitch

Condensation inside the tent
Maximize ventilation by opening mesh panels and vents. Avoid cooking inside the tent. Ensure sleeping mats are not blocking ground vents.
Water ingress during rain
Verify that all seams are properly sealed and that guy lines are taut, ensuring the flysheet is not in contact with the inner tent. Check hydrostatic head ratings are appropriate for expected rainfall.
