The Same Apply to Crafting Ammo. Caught breaking this rule will result in prison time.

23. Walking Whilst Dead (WWD) - Walking While Dead is when you start running or walking when you're dead.

But depending on the RP situation you may RP crawling around. Keep in mind, before role playing crawling away or role playing grabbing your gun and do a last stance type of roleplay you need to RP your injuries first. You're not superman. Once you've been put to the injured state you need to RP the damage. Once you've completely role played which injuries you've gotten, you may start to RP crawling away or grabbing your gun and shooting the other players who may have downed you. If you do start RP crawling away, do not stand up and start to run away from the scene as fast as possible. If you're crawling it's going to take a long time to go from point A to point B. Use common sense on the speed an actual injured person would be crawling at.
Caught breaking this rule will result in prison time.
