Recovery Mode

Whenever the server for a Region restarts (whether due to a crash or scheduled maintenance) it triggers Recovery Mode.

During Recovery Mode all players inputs are paused for 5 minutes, the timer is displayed on the player's screen. This gives everyone a fair chance of rejoining a server before the action begins.

After the timer ends, vehicles cannot be unlocked with a Wrench by enemies for a short period of time (<10 minutes). The same protection occurs when the driver of a vehicle was recently disconnected. The protection is removed if a friendly player enters the vehicle.

Players are not affected by the cold during Recovery Mode and Rocket launch timers are paused.
