Evacuate FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I craft emergency exit doors?
Emergency exit doors are crafted using standard building materials like wood and metal blocks arranged in a door-shaped pattern. Check the crafting recipes in your inventory or JEI/NEI for the specific style you want, as the mod includes 6 different door variants.
What do crash bars do on emergency doors?
Crash bars are decorative items that attach to emergency exit doors to make them look realistic and functional. They don't change the door's mechanics—they're purely for aesthetic purposes to complete the emergency exit look.
Can I place fire extinguishers on any wall?
Fire extinguishers can be wall-mounted on most solid blocks, or placed on the ground in rooms and hallways. They're purely decorative and don't actually extinguish fires, so position them wherever they look appropriate for your build.
Do the fire alarm buttons actually trigger anything?
The manual call point alarm buttons are decorative blocks that don't trigger in-game mechanics. They're designed to complete the look of a realistic emergency system in your buildings.
What's the difference between the safety signs?
The mod includes over 40 ISO 7010 standard safety signs (like evacuation routes and assembly points) plus separate IMO safety signs designed for naval and boat builds. Each sign communicates different emergency information and matches real-world safety standards.
Are the IMO signs only for boats?
IMO signs are specifically designed for naval and maritime builds, but you can use them anywhere you want a nautical aesthetic. They're cosmetic, so feel free to incorporate them into any build style.
Do I need other mods for this to work?
Evacuate Mod works as a standalone mod and doesn't require other mods to function. It may have optional compatibility with other mods, but all core features work independently.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
Evacuate Mod adds only decorative blocks and items, so it has minimal performance impact. You can place dozens of signs, doors, and extinguishers without noticeable lag.
Can I use these blocks in survival mode?
Yes, all Evacuate Mod blocks can be crafted and placed in survival mode. Gather the required materials and use the crafting recipes to build your emergency systems.
How do I make an assembly point area?
Place an assembly point sign (marked with the standard gathering symbol) in an open outdoor area away from your building, then surround it with safety signs and clear floor space. The guides cover full setup instructions for creating a complete evacuation zone.
