Flares

The Flare is a feature in the tribute game. Upon pressing the activation button, a green, red, or black colomn of smoke will emerge from the player. It will shoot high in the sky, eventually disappearing. They eventually regenerate, so you can launch them again. The activation button is 1, 2, and 3 by default, but can be changed in the Options menu.

When another player launches a flare, a colored arrow will appear next to your player, indicating the direction of the flare.

Flares are a useful way of communicating with your team mates. Here is the general color code for flares:
