 Humans including [[:guards:]] and [[:agents:]] can be **knocked out**, usually when they are [[:attack|attacked]] with non-lethal [[:weapons:]]. While knocked out, the unit is inactive; they cannot move, attack, or use items or most other abilities, and they have no [[:vision]] or [[:noise|hearing]]. Knocked-out units also do not block or impede other units' movement; it is possible to walk over them with no penalty. Humans including [[:guards:]] and [[:agents:]] can be **knocked out**, usually when they are [[:attack|attacked]] with non-lethal [[:weapons:]].

 At the start of each player turn, every knocked-out unit's KO timer is reduced by 1, unless the unit is [[:pinning|pinned]]. When a unit's KO timer reaches 0, they wake up and become active again; when a guard wakes up after being knocked out, he also becomes [[:guard behaviour#alerted]] (or if he is a [[:civilian]], he [[:guard behaviour#panicking|panics]] instead). At the start of each player turn, every knocked-out unit's KO timer is reduced by 1, unless the unit is [[:pinning|pinned]].

 +A guard will be facing a direction he was dragged onto a tile he woke up. This means that if a guard was knocked-out by a melee attack and left alone, he will wake up facing a direction he was attacked from. If no one dragged the guard after he becomed knocked-out (for example, by using a ranged attack or Shock trap), he will be facing the same direction he was facing before being knocked-out. Grabbing and dropping a guard without moving do not change a direction he will be facing after awakening.
  
 A guard's KO timer can be increased using a [[:items:Paralyzer]], or by attacking him again with a weapon which deals KO damage. However, when a knocked-out guard is attacked, their KO timer is reset to the KO damage done by the new attack; it is not added to their existing timer. KO timers can also be reduced by the daemon [[:daemons:Jolt]]. A guard's KO timer can be increased using a [[:items:Paralyzer]], or by attacking him again with a weapon which deals KO damage.
