How a game works

Lobby, roles, difficulties, modules, communication and end of game.

#The lobby

Talk to the ped (E) to sign up.
The lobby leader (the first player to sign up) can change the difficulty in the menu.
With Config.AutoStart = true, the game starts automatically when 3 players are in the lobby, after Config.AutoStartDelay seconds (15 by default).
Config.AdminOnlyStart = true reserves starting for staff.

A lobby player who moves more than Config.LobbyLeaveDistance (60 m) away from the ped is removed from the lobby. /banana quitter lets you leave at any time.

#The roles

The three players sit around a table, the bomb in the centre.

Role	What they do
Blind	Only sees silhouettes, but is the only one who can handle the bomb (E)
Deaf	Sees everything (colours, timer, serial number) but cannot hear the others: they read aloud
Mute	Cannot see the bomb and cannot speak, but is the only one with the manual and hears everyone. They communicate by gestures

Each player only receives their own role's information: the solution stays server-side.

#Briefing and arming

Each role's briefing stays on screen until all 3 players have clicked “Understood”. The bomb only arms at that point (otherwise /banana quitter).

#Modules

Between 3 and 7 modules depending on difficulty: wires, button, braille plate, symbols, switches, dials, sound.

#Difficulties

Default values (editable in Config.Difficulties):

Difficulty	Modules	Time	Tolerated mistakes
Easy	3	360 s	3
Normal (default)	4	360 s	3
Hard	5	300 s	2
Expert	7	420 s	2

#Communicating

The deaf player reads aloud what they see; the mute player hears it.
The mute player answers with gestures (G key): numbers, actions (CUT, PRESS, HOLD, RELEASE, UP, DOWN, SUBMIT), answers (YES, NO, ?, STOP, WAIT), colours. Gestures appear as a bubble above their head and in the HUD, visible to the deaf and mute players, not the blind one.
Slap the nearest teammate: H.
Text chat is not blocked: remind players of the honour rule.

Gesture labels

The default gesture bubbles are written in French (COUPE, APPUIE, OUI, NON…). Edit the text and name fields in Config.Gestures to translate them.

#During the game

A player who moves more than Config.LeashDistance (25 m) away is put back.
During the game, the phone (lb-phone) is disabled, the pma-voice radio cut and calls hung up (Config.BlockComms). Everything is restored at the end (the radio must be switched back on).
A player who is dead before the game is revived through the framework's ambulance event (Bridge.revive).

#End of game

Victory: every module defused before the timer ends.
Defeat: timer at zero or too many mistakes. The detonation is a local screen effect, shake and sound: no real explosion.
An end screen shows for Config.EndDelay seconds (8 by default), then players are sent back.
