Order of Night actions
Actions are posted chronologically.
- Jailor detains target
- Bulletproof vests are used
- Target switches and role-blockers
- Priority order is Witches, Bus Drivers, then role-blockers (Escort or Consort). It then repeats that cycle a random number of times to deal with complicated webs of events and paradoxes.
- Killing roles and suicides act simultaneously (Jailor, Vigilante, Mafioso and Godfather, Serial Killer, Arsonist, Jester, Disguiser, and leavers in that order (being killed in a previous event does not matter, however); Bodyguard, Bus Driver, and Witch indirect kills/suicides happen throughout in the applicable areas).
- Janitor cleans a target
- Investigative roles detect (Sheriff, Investigator, Consigliere)
- Disguiser replaces his target if the kill was successful.
- Mason Leader recruits someone to become a Mason.

Random Roles
Certain roles cannot be randomed in situations in which they would have no effect on the game. These roles include:
- Masons by themselves - they will always spawn as a pair
- Coroners when there is no Janitor in the game and/or the mode is not Clue variant
- Mason Leader will not spawn if there are no Citizens in the game
- Note: Spies are exempt from this rule and still spawn even if there are no Mafia-aligned roles or Masons in the game - this, however, is incredibly rare.
