— In-game description |
A Critically Wounded Soldier (a.k.a. "CWS") is a large item that has a chance to spawn when a player dies.
Uses
Critically Wounded Soldiers are a Large Item, and can be picked up by pressing V
. They can be submitted into the inventory of a Medical Base, Ambulance, or First Aid Car by pressing V
or using the Submit Large Item
button in the vehicle or structure interface.
Critically Wounded Soldiers should not be confused with Wounded Soldiers, who are players in a downed state and can be revived using a Trauma Kit. A CWS will look like either a Warden or Colonial soldier lying on their left side. It is never bloody and carries and wears no visible equipment unlike a Wounded Player.
When submitted into a medical structure using the Submit Patient
button in the interface, they can be converted into Soldier Supplies or serve as Respawn Supplies for Medical Bases.

Production
There's approximately a 40% chance that a Critically Wounded Soldier will spawn whenever a Wounded Player bleeds out or gives up.
A Critically Wounded Soldier cannot spawn if the wounded player is hit during their initial animation of falling to the ground, if they were downed by an ally, or if they are hit by anything that sends their corpse flying (such as an explosive)
Storage
Critically Wounded Soldier does not stack in inventories (1 per slot).
It cannot be stored in any stockpile.
It is a Large Item, a soldier can only carry one at a time on their shoulder slot.
Ambulances and First Aid Cars are the only vehicle that can transport them.
Tips
- Critically Wounded Soldiers come in both Colonial and Warden uniforms, but can be picked up and processed by any faction — their appearance is visual only.
- Critically Wounded Soldiers despawn after being on the ground for 60 seconds after appearing or being dropped by their carrier.
- While carrying a Critically Wounded Soldier, players can climb over obstacles like fences, sandbags or out from trenches.
- If a player dies while carrying a Critically Wounded Soldier, it will drop into their backpack.
- If the carrier tries to swim or runs out of stamina, or is otherwise knocked over, the Critically Wounded Soldier is automatically dropped.
- Be careful not to confuse Critically Wounded Soldiers with Wounded Players. An easy way to tell them apart is to look for a nametag and any movement.
