Bedside Manner Revive Friends: Read the Revival Prompt

Find the revival-choice binding

Bedside Manner lists Y/N under Revive on PC and D-Pad Up/Down on controller. These are the published choice inputs. Keep them distinct from movement and interaction so a tense cooperative moment does not turn into repeated presses of the wrong action.

Read the decision before confirming it

A revival choice deserves a moment of attention even when friends are calling for help. Read what the prompt is offering and decide whether that is the action you want. The existence of a revival input does not by itself tell you the cost, conditions or result of every prompt.

If a prompt involves payment, review the displayed amount and your own spending limit before agreeing. Do not let the urgency of a run become the reason you confirm a purchase you did not intend. This is a general spending recommendation, not a statement that a particular revival always costs a fixed amount.

Recover a shared plan after the choice

Tell the group which decision you made and what objective you intend to pursue next. This helps avoid a situation where one friend expects a rescue while another has already committed to a different route. Keep the information short enough that players can act on it during the run.

For power-restoration work, the Bedside Manner generator guide is a useful next reference. It explains the operate and leave inputs so the next cooperative objective does not become another control question immediately after the revival decision.
