📸 Setting Up Evidence Capture

⚠️ As per server rules, all clips used in Player to Player reports must include at least 5 minutes of unedited footage.
Reports submitted without this minimum requirement will be deemed invalid.

To ensure you're always covered, it is highly recommended you configure your recording or clipping software to save at least the last 5 minutes of gameplay.
