Hey. It’s a FAQ.
Please point out any mistakes, be it grammar or gameplay. And suggest new stuff to be added here as well.

- Get items from display racks/trunks/boxes?
You can get items from display racks, trunks, boxes, or any adjacent tiles by examining the tile containing the item.
- Remove/change the batteries in my flashlight/welder/mp3 player?
You should think of your flashlight as a weapon:
-Hold it in your hands;
-Press the reload button.
-If you want to remove the batteries, press Unload.
- Transfer liquids from a container to another?
Once again, think of the container as a weapon:
-Hold the container with liquid in your hands;
-Press Unload;
-Press N when asked if you want to pour the liquid on the ground;
-Choose which container will receive the liquid.
- Remove/Use silencers/extended magazines/gyroscopic stabilizer/enhanced grip?
These items, the gunmods, can be installed by anyone with a firearms skill of at least 1. Here’s how you do it:
-Press use (a);
-Choose the gunmod to install;
-Choose the weapon to modify.
Note that weapons can only have up to 4 gunmods.
To remove gunmods:
- Press Unload to completely unload your weapon.
- Press Unload with your weapon already unloaded to remove all gunmods.
- Use spare magazines
-Attach the magazine to a weapon. Note that revolvers and shotguns can’t have spare magazines attached to them for obvious reasons;
-Reload your weapon;
-Press “reload” again to reload the spare magazine. The next time you reload your weapon, it should be much faster.
-Sometimes, your character can’t use spare magazines. I’m not sure of what causes it, but the obvious fix to it is creating another character.
- Repair my vehicle?
You’ll need a welder with 50 charges of battery and some skill in mechanics for this. For the mechanics skill, you have two alternatives: a) start with skills in mechanics and b) read a book called “Under the Hood”, which will take your mechanics skill up to 3. Once you have everything you need to repair the damaged part:
- examine your vehicle;
- Find the damaged part;
- Press repair;
- Refuel my vehicle?
There are mainly two ways of refueling a vehicle: a) using a gas pump and b) using a container with gasoline.
Refueling with a gas pump:
- Make sure your car is adjacent to you;
- examine the gas pump;
- Press Y to pump gas;
- Press Y to refuel a vehicle;
- Select the vehicle.
Refueling with gasoline in a container: - examine your car;
- Find the gasoline tank;
- Press refill.
- Make rags from clothes
You’ll need scissors or a sharp weapon for this:
-Press use (a).
-Select the scissors/sharp weapon;
-Select the clothes you wish to turn into rags.
