status: in game

happens: naturally

type: environmental

event description: you're shrouded in darkness, find the power boxes.

date added: august 2nd, 2022 (blackout update)

icon: the icon shows a light bulb hanging from some wires in a pitch black room.

intro: all the lights will flicker on and off for a short while before turning off for good.

effects: although this event does turn all the lights off, that's more of a visual effect and as such, this event doesn't really have any effects.

goal: there are power boxes scattered around the map that you have to find. the amount ranges from 2 - 10. most of them don't work. the ones that do work are lit up. to use the ones that do work, hold "e" on it for a short while until it becomes fixed. once the set number of power boxes is fixed, the blackout will be over. another alternative is simply waiting for around 2 - 3 minutes.

visual effects: as just mentioned, this event turns all the lights off and in outdoors maps, makes the sky darker and makes the ambient lighting darker.

ambience: the ambience sounds like a very deep grandfather clock that gets a little more intense midway through.

outro: the outro is very similar to the intro except that when the flickering is over, the lights are on again.
