====== Arma 3 Antistasi Rules ======

<WRAP round important>These rules are complimentary to — and do not supersede — our [[:community_rules|Community Rules]].</WRAP>

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our Arma 3 Antistasi server rules before joining.

<wrap #1 />
==== ① Limit Friendly Fire ⚔️ =====

  * <wrap em>Your bullets are every bit as deadly to friend as they are to foe!</wrap>
  * **Always [[wp>Backblast_area|check your backblast]] with launchers** and use caution when tossing grenades!
  * Know roughly where your shells will land before firing mortars/artillery/etc.

<wrap #2 />
==== ② Base Conduct 🏠 =====

  * <wrap important>If you are the first to spawn at HQ, ensure Petros is safely sheltered indoors!</wrap>
    * If Petros is left outside he may be killed by passing enemy patrols or errant air strikes.
    * Petros being in cover also gives him a fighting chance in the event [[https://official-antistasi-community.github.io/A3-Antistasi-Docs/reference_guide/missions_info/missions/defend_petros.html|Defend Petros]] is triggered and no one can reach him in time.
  * Do not engage in disruptive behavior at friendly locations. This includes:
    * Damaging structures
    * Stealing or moving equipment/emplacements without approval
    * Hindering other players' activities

<wrap #3 />
==== ③ Vehicles & Equipment 🚗 =====

  * **Please use vehicles and equipment responsibly.** They are expensive!
  * <wrap em>Never remove source vehicles ([[arma_3:repair_vehicle|repair]], [[arma_3:fuel_vehicle|fuel]], [[arma_3:ammo_vehicle|ammo]]) from the garage!</wrap>
  * You may notify admin of assets destroyed due to bugs, though we cannot guarantee their replacement.
  * **Do not waste resources or leave vehicles unattended** in vulnerable areas.
    * When finished striking an objective, make sure to gather up your belongings and garage them if it' safe to do so!

<wrap #4 />
==== ④ Explosives Etiquette 💣 =====

  * Refrain from leaving unattended [[arma_3:explosives_trigger_systems|explosives]] lying around!
  * Minefields should be clearly marked on the map!
  * Commanders should seek to minimize usage of minefield supports.

<wrap #5 />
==== ⑤ Be a Team Player 🤝 =====

  * Limit operations to a single objective at a time. Reasons being:
    * Teamwork makes things easier and more fun.
    * The engine itself can only handle about 200 AI total without HC clients.
    * Once this limit is reached, server FPS craters and AI behavior becomes wonky.

<wrap #6 />

  * Use our Discord ''#📞support'' channel to let staff know of any problems encountered.

<wrap #7 />
==== ⑦ Cheats and Exploits 🚫 =====

  * Treat other players with respect.
  * No harassment, bullying, or toxic behavior.

<wrap #9 />
==== ⑨ Staff Roles 👮‍♂️ =====
