NPC situation?

OOH! Make it like the claim system in The Walking Dead! So if someone in your group has low enough relations with you they might try to steal something of yours, in which case everyone else in the group would turn hostile towards that NPC, and ditto if you try to steal from someone and are caught.

Walking Dead is really back in business! Pretty soon we’ll want Daryl’s crossbow and Rick’s Honda in C:DDA too.
Completely unrelated, but where do I find a Mjolnir? I saw it in the debug menu but couldn’t find it anywhere else.

Wait for it to crash near a small town in the desert?

I’ll look out for any homeless, blond bodybuilders wandering around nearby, too.

Next to the Flaming Chunk of Steel +2. In the debug menu, where they belong.

What are those things supposed to do, by the way? And who implemented the Mjolnir?

The flaming chunk of steel +2 is a prototype for AFAIK unimplemented flaming artifacts/weapons.

The mjolnir is the one hammer to smash them all, AKA a debug tool to test if smashing terrain broke.
(i2amroy added it when he revamped terrain smashing)

My last character died from radiation, so I’m going to wait until a property system has been implemented before starting another game with a fresh experimental, so please hurry!

You may have a long wait.

Question: What determines which items an NPC is willing to trade with you? Your speaking skill/speech related traits and mutations, or how “threatened” they feel by you?

Question: do NPC’s heal? I had a situation recently where I tag-teamed with the starter NPC under static spawn option where she was the melee and I was the archer due to dreadfully low strength. It was working really well, but some cougars jumped us and we both got our legs slowly bit off and I had to leave her for dead lest they kill me too. I remember a while before that she tried to slug it out with a fat zombie and was kind of lagging behind me as we walked along, and I was wondering how I could have helped her, if it was even possible.

I guess I don’t understand how NPC’s work in general. I know they’ll switch weapons if they can based on the situation, but do they use medical items? Do they heal when you sleep? Do they passively regenerate? What about replacing their clothes when they rip? Eat food? All this would be really good to know.

bahihs · 2014-11-13T02:15:30.000Z

As far as I know, NPC’s don’t sleep. However, if you give them medicine (medkits) they do in fact, heal themselves.

It’d be nice to finally be able to have NPCs as companions and not simply walking bags of free stuff traveling merchants.

Wally-kun · 2014-11-13T04:39:34.000Z

Mmm…troublesome. Because by the time I can afford to sustain two people I probably really don’t need that other one.

It seems like passive regeneration (slow yet proportional to the time passing in total) would be an effective solution. Not sure how it’d work when a chunk gets unloaded however.

Something to add to the laundry list of suggestions for later, I suppose.

Valpo · 2014-11-13T18:40:19.000Z

I generally think a human beeing should be healing over time all the time… though we have accelerated healing in cata and such… so maybe the blob stops workign when your awake?

Realy now if we implement constant healing rates(slower when awake compared to sleeping) we can perhaps just slap that awake regen on top of your trusty friend.

You and me both. It’s a bummer that the few survivors who I do coerce into accompanying me on my quest to find a Refugee Center, they all end up with Darwin Awards.

bahihs · 2014-11-13T19:49:39.000Z

I did mean first aid kits, and I always use NPC’s as distractions in hairy situations, so they can be useful to keep around.
