Summary
Wreckfest 2 servers have a variety of event rules that can change for each map. Users can set default rules through the BisectHosting Games panel to automatically set them when applicable, ensuring a fair ruleset is maintained even without Race Directors or admins online. Rules can also be changed while in-game; however, any changes will be reset on server restart.
