Rescue Missions is a map event that occur occasionally while playing Flood Escape 2. In a rescue mission, you will escort an NPC to the exit for gems. This mechanic was introduced into the game on February 3, 2021.

Mechanics

A distress call.

Notification when you have successfully rescued an Escapee

A distress call is signaled to you when the current map event is a rescue mission, notifying players that there is a stranded NPC somewhere in the map. The rescue target is marked in the game similarly to buttons but with a red-colored warning symbol. Each player can only do a Rescue Mission individually, so each player must escort their own escapee.

Getting within range of the target will get them to follow you, mimicking your movements like jumping, sliding, ziplining, doing emotes, etc. Each group button pressed counts as 2 presses with the NPC. If you managed to successfully escort them to the exit without dying, you will be rewarded 1 (2 if the intensity is at least 4).

Map Making

To make a rescue mission in a map, you must have a part named _Rescue and place it somewhere. You can customize its name by changing the value of RescueName under the folder of Rescue, while you can change its appearance in the Cosmetics folder under the same folder. Save the map and test it. Rescue missions rarely occur unlike Normal Servers, so you have to wait a little bit. When finishing a map with an Escapee (or whatever you call it), the game will say that you have escaped with an Escapee and you will not receive any Gems.

Trivia

• If you don't have VIP, this is your only way to get gems other than leveling up and reaching Days 5 and 7 in the Daily Login.
• There are 13 possible appearances for the Escapees, in which one of the 7 is randomly picked if it's not a certain map.
  • In Beneath The Ruins, the Escapee is replaced with the FE1 Guide.
  • In Graveyard Cliffside and Gloomy Manor, the Escapee is replaced with a Skeleton.
  • In Blue Moon, the Escapee is replaced with an astronaut.
  • In Polar Industry, the Escapee is replaced with an Elf.
  • In Construction Thrill, the Escapee is replaced with a Forgotten Worker.
  • In Northern Workshop, the Escapee is replaced with Santa.
    • The Escapee with the orange hoodie is the same person in the Flood Escape 1 thumbnail.
• Rescue Missions were first teased by Crazyblox on Twitter and Discord on February 1, 2021.
• Lost Woods, Axiom, Castle Tides, Poisonous Valley, Buried Oasis, Infiltration, Crystal Caverns, Snowy Peaks, Sunken Citadel, Abandoned Facility, Lost Desert, Beneath The Ruins and Poisonous Chasm are the only maps that didn't got changed to accommodate rescue missions.
• Back then, there was a glitch where returning to rescue an NPC after finishing the level will cause it to follow you the entire round, regardless of any level you complete and the only way the NPC will disappear is when you rescue another escapee or when you die. This has been fixed.
• The only maps that have the escapees located underwater are Buried Oasis, Crystal Caverns, Sunken Citadel, Abandoned Facility and Magmatic Mines.
• Rescuing escapees in Crazy Maps may be a challenge as you will not only take a detour from the original path, you will also waste time.
• Forsaken Era didn't had a rescue mission when it was first added. It finally had a rescue mission on the 10/23/2021 Halloween Update.
• Before being revamped, Fallen's escapee was located on a small platform right beside the path to the second button.
• Rescue Missions used to occur every 5 minutes or every 3-4 rounds but was changed when Map Events was introduced.
• In the Lobby, there's a machine right beside the Update Log screen that says "Monitoring Distress Calls". Aside from that, it has no affect or purpose during the map event.
  • The machine also appears in Abandoned Facility.
