Each map plays one '''game mode'''~~. A~~ map's own ~~rules decide its~~ teams, ~~its goal~~ and ~~its clock~~, so a [[Level Editor|custom map]] can bring a mode of its own.

Each map plays one '''game mode''', named by the start of the map's file name. The mode is the kind of match; each map sets its own teams, clock and numbers, so two maps of the same mode can play differently. A [[Level Editor|custom map]] can bring a mode of its own.

All modes share the basics: you respawn after 8 seconds unless the ~~mode~~ says otherwise, your own [[Spawn rooms|spawn room]] protects and resupplies you, and when a match ends the [[Map vote|map vote]] picks the next map.
