Official wiki and independent guides

Urban Games’ TF3 wiki contains the game manual and modding documentation. This site, transportfever.wiki, is an independent fan guide. Our summaries link back to their evidence and provide an inspection order for a specific question.

Keep the game version in view. TF2 has a separate official wiki, and older campaign puzzles or vehicle-region instructions can belong to the previous game.

Read the controls for your platform

The manual offers mouse-and-keyboard and controller views. A PC shortcut or editable settings file is not automatically a console instruction. Read the displayed platform controls, then use the documented feature rather than copying a key sequence blindly.

Check a manual against the installed build

When a rule seems different in your save, note the store, version and mods. Read the current release notes and known issues. Pre-release videos show development-stage behavior; the released manual and later patch notes are better references for a current setting.
