Recent progress in six-dimensional (6D) cooling simulations for the Muon Collider based on the RFOFO ring layout is presented. In order to improve the performance of the cooling channel a tapering scheme is studied that implies changing the parameters such as cell length, magnetic field strength, RF frequency, and the amount of the absorbing material along the cooling channel. This approach allows us to keep the cooling rates high throughout the process. The results of the simulations carried out in G4beamline are presented.
