Scattered within Facilities are Matrixing Terminals, these can be found in every Spawn Room, backdoor area and in basement areas. In addition they can be found:
Amp Station: Bio-Lab: Dropship Center: Interlink Facility: Tech Plant: |
| On the catwalk over the Lobby. In the Advanced Medical Room and near the CC. Inside the Air Vehicle creation room and in the upper Lobby area next to the Equipment Terminal. In the upper Lobby area next to the equipment terminal. In the upper Lobby area opposite the front door and outside under the Air Creation Pads.

Hitting the Action Key when facing one will embed your DNA within the Matrix Storage of the Facility. That way, if you do fall in battle, you have the chance to reappear there rather then traveling from the Sanctuary or the nearest base. An Advanced Mobile Station (AMS) is a vehicle that allows players to respawn out in the field rather than only being able to respawn from facilities. These to have Matrixing Terminals to bind at so you can respawn from that specific AMS.
To bind yourself to a Facility or AMS find a Matrixing Terminal, approach it until you receive a pop-up message inviting you to Bind there and then hit the Action Key. Once successfully bound, you will have the chance to respawn there if your character dies. Note that you can only Bind to a Friendly Facility that is completely under your Empire's control (e.g., it has an operational Generator and has not been Hacked by the enemy). In addition you can only Bind at one Facility at a time and one AMS at a time. Therefore you can choose to Bind yourself to both a Facility and an AMS at the same time to maximize your Respawning choices.
If you do fall in battle, you will be presented with a choice to begin the respawning process immediately or you can choose to wait until the timer has counted down. Keep in mind that once the respawn process starts you may no longer be Revived by a friendly, thus when operating in a Squad with capable Medics you may wish to postpone the respawning process to allow your medics time to revive you.
You can choose to begin the Respawning process immediately by selecting any of your valid Respawning locales. These may include:
The Facility at which you are manually bound to. The facility must be completely under your Empire's control with both the Generator and Respawn tubes operational.
The Advanced Mobile Station (AMS) at which you are manually bound to. The AMS at the time must be operational and deployed.
As a contingency plan, your Empire also allows you to respawn at the nearest Friendly facility, AMS, or Tower for the continent you are on, as long as they meet the above criteria as well.
Finally your Sanctuary is always available as a Respawn point.
| Thus it is possible to have up to six respawn choices: |
|
|
|
|
| 1) A facility to which you manually bound yourself to; |
|
|
| 2) An AMS to which you manually bound yourself to; |
|
|
| 3) A backup respawn point at the nearest friendly facility on your continent; |
|
|
| 4) Another backup Respawn point at the nearest deployed and friendly AMS on your continent, |
|
|
| 5) The third backup Respawn point at the nearest Tower on your continent, and; |
|
Choose carefully as you may end up in a location you weren't expecting and thus inconvenience yourself needlessly.
