Barotrauma is a survival horror game with some role-playing elements that take place in a submarine. The game has been in Early Access for 3 years, and it was released not long ago. There are many mechanisms in Barotrauma, and you might forget some or not understand them fully. For instance, how to use handcuff in the game, so here is how to handcuff someone in Barotrauma.
How to Handcuff Someone in Barotrauma
Handcuffs are one of the best tools you can use in Barotrauma for many reasons. You can easily control hostile crew members with handcuffs without hurting them.
The first step in handcuffing someone is to have a handcuff at your disposal. You can find it by looking around or crafting it yourself with some steel bar. The next step is to make sure the character is unconscious so you can handcuff them.
In order to unconscious someone, you can use Stun Baton, Stun Gun, or use Chloral Hydrate to shoot them with Syringe Gun. Once they became unconscious grab them.
Then move the handcuff to the character’s inventory and afterward hit the Equip bar above them. This is how you can handcuff someone in Barotrauma.
In case you needed to remove the handcuffs off a person, simply grab them and then hit the unequip bar or simply remove the handcuff from their inventory.
The most important thing you should remember about using handcuffs is that you can actually handcuff yourself. If you put the handcuffs in your inventory and equip it by mistake, you will be handcuffed and the only way you can be freed is to ask another character.
This will be a real struggle because a character that is handcuffed cannot interact with Containers, Doors, or Hatches. The other thing you should also remember about the handcuffs is that characters can gain access to the handcuffed person’s inventory.
