What the Seven-Day Federal Raid Does
A growing base and a full wallet do not last indefinitely in ROB RUN. With the ROB RUN server wipe explained, the key rule is straightforward: the Federal Raid takes place every seven days, clearing plots, bases, weapons and cash while converting wiped assets into jail time and authority. Knowing that deadline changes how you think about earning, defending and rebuilding.
The reset starts another competition for resources and power. It is part of the game's progression loop, rather than automatically a sign that your account or save has malfunctioned. The Steam description likewise presents a week-long rise through the server hierarchy followed by a new start.
The official help page specifies the seven-day interval. It does not provide an exact weekday, time zone, countdown or conversion formula, so that interval alone is not enough to calculate a server's next precise reset time.
What Gets Wiped and What Carries Over
The official list separates possessions you rebuild from identity, preferences and accumulated progress that remain:
| Category | Federal Raid result |
|---|---|
| Plots and bases | Removed |
| Weapons and cash | Wiped |
| Wiped assets | Converted into jail time and authority |
| Cosmetics | Retained |
| Player name | Retained |
| Tutorial progress and settings | Retained |
| Accumulated jail time | Retained |
That distinction is useful if you are deciding how to spend your first week. A base is valuable during the cycle, but it is not a permanent purchase you carry intact into the next one. Your retained tutorial progress also means the official reset description does not imply that every part of your account returns to a completely untouched state.
Kefir does not state the amount of authority or jail time awarded per item or unit of money in this material. Avoid treating your wallet balance as a known conversion calculator.
Banked Money Is Protected Until the Wipe
Banking protects against a different problem: theft during the current cycle. To open an account, visit Looty Bay Bank as a Civilian. Cash is then processed through the Laundering Desk at your base, and the laundering process takes time. Withdrawals are available through ATMs.
The important limit is the same in both money-related help pages: protected funds are safe from theft until the next wipe. That does not make them exempt from the Federal Raid's cash reset.
For planning purposes, keep two separate questions in mind:
- Can another player take this money during the cycle? Banking and laundering address theft protection.
- Will this cash remain after the Federal Raid? The wipe rules still apply.
See Kefir's official Federal Raid explanation for the reset and carryover list.
If Your Progress Disappears Unexpectedly
First check whether a scheduled wipe has happened, then confirm that you are using the correct Steam account. Those are Kefir's first troubleshooting steps for missing progress.
If the loss does not fit the expected reset, contact support with your UID, player name and the approximate time it occurred. Those details give support context for investigating the loss; the help page does not promise an automatic restoration.
This also keeps two different situations from getting mixed together. Losing a base during the Federal Raid matches the normal reset description. A loss you cannot explain after checking the wipe and account deserves its own support report.
