• Call the helicopter and board the extraction rope before it is too late.
• Drive out of raids with vehicles to add them to your garage and use later.
• Extracted loot remains yours, while uncollected world loot persists.
• Customize your hideout over time to meet your needs.

Hideout

• Fuel-powered electricity and water.
• Ammo and medical supply deliveries.
• Security, ventilation, heating, communications, generator, and intel upgrades.
• Skill books can optionally provide direct XP inside the hideout.

• Complete quests to gain rewards and advance the light storyline.
• As you build trust with contacts, gain access to a few different barter trades.
• Contacts have special services they can offer such as weapon or vehicle repair.
• Gives a use for some of the loot you generally don't bother with!

Multiplayer

Designed for multiplayer with server-authoritative raid state. Either play with the shared hideout in Coop or enable Multi Hideout and play the mod Coop or PvP! In Multi Hideout you can invite players to reside within your own base and work together to upgrade it just like in a shared hideout. Join a faction to share quest progress with other players.

Additional Features

• Dynamic insertion and extraction locations.
• Late-raid and extraction hordes that scale with player count.
• Progressive sprinter chances.
• Rare infection cures and hideout infection protection.
• Optional [42]Bandits NPCs or A-Life NPC integration. Not required but recommended!
• Tons of sandbox options for fine tuning how the mod works.
• Admin controls for managing players, hideouts, and extraction.
• Custom raid location editor to setup custom maps or change any of the default ones.

Server Setup

Place the hideout map before the vanilla maps:

Map=ExtractionMap;Muldraugh, KY[/code]

Enable both the mod and its map in your server configuration. Also be sure to add the mod to the Steam Workshop tab in server settings.

You may need to add the following to the list of spawn regions, particularly when using dedicated servers:

[code] { name = "Hideout", file = "media/maps/ExtractionMap/spawnpoints.lua" } 

For in game hosting you can check the screenshots for reference on how to add this line (if needed).

If you are setting up a Multi Hideout server, check the pinned discussion thread for a guide.
