Description
After hooking a Survivor, Dead Man's Switch triggers its effect:
- The first Generator any Survivor stops repairing for 2 seconds is blocked for 30/35/40 seconds
- The Blocked Generator is highlighted to you in white.
Dead Man's Switch cannot activate if its effect is still active from a previous activation.
