Fight, surrender or bribe

The three ways a Criminal's run-in with a cop can end in Looty Bay.

Fight and die
BagLost Equipped gearLost

A Criminal killed in Looty Bay drops the whole inventory. If you carry gear you cannot replace, fighting on is the most expensive choice.

Surrender
BagConfiscated Equipped gearKept

The officer takes your bag and you walk away with everything you have equipped. Once a cop has you, it is the only way to save that gear.

Bribe accepted
BagKept Equipped gearKept

You can only offer a bribe with money already in your bank account. If the cop takes it, they get a solid payout and you lose nothing.

Cops are paid from confiscations, arrests and bribes, so every ending puts something in the officer’s pocket.

Civilians, cops and the desert

Without a mask the rules soften; outside the city they disappear.

Civilian in the city

Killed without a mask in Looty Bay, you keep both your bag and your equipped gear.

Cop on shift

You keep personal items and lose department-issued gear. Each death in a row makes the next respawn take longer.

Anyone in the desert

The desert is lawless and anyone can try to kill you there. Death there takes all your loot, whatever your role.

Civilians in the desert

Kefir has not said whether a Civilian killed in the desert keeps anything, and the desert rule says all loot is lost. Carry only what you can afford to drop.

Cash and the weekly wipe

Two rulings that ignore zone and role.

Banked cash

Loose cash in your pockets can be stolen or confiscated. Once you launder it into your bank account it is out of reach until the next wipe, and any ATM pays it back out.

How laundering works →
Federal Raid

Every seven days the Federal Raid clears plots, bases, weapons and cash and turns them into jail time and authority. Cosmetics, your player name, tutorial progress, settings and the jail time you have built up survive it.
