How does the new hunger system with calories work?

Where all recipies for arrows now and why they have 0 stats?(8834 game version) And why some evac shelter have deadend stairs to roof?

Looks like the arrow recipes were changed. You’re probably looking at the new “crude arrows” which are basically garbage. Bolts now require actual fletching as well.

By dead end stairs to the roof do you mean stairs that go up but don’t actually reach the roof?

Yes, stairs lead nowhere

Haven’t played in months, do NPCs use/consume drugs in their inventory if they have the means to do so? Example would be if they have a lighter and cigarettes, would they smoke it? Some kind of hidden stat that constitutes whether they will take mild to extreme drugs.

Does the new code of arrow make the produce noise? i getting randomish nose levels when i fire a bow

Bows cause slight noise. You can craft a dampening kit to reduce it.

NPCs will consume painkillers, apply healing items, and consume food, but as far as I know on a brief check of the code, they won’t do drugs.

I was irradiated 35, down from 45… my health kept dropping, is that why? It kept taking a little health at a time so it took a day or two to die.

Yes, heavy radiation poisoning will slowly kill you.

  1. What’s up with latest win64-curses experimental? Seems like the last one was made 5 days ago.
  2. How camp crafting works? My NPC makes charcoal and I can’t find it anywhere. The same with meat and flour. And two anvils. 5 hours and he returns with nothing. Am i doing something wrong?
  1. Windows curses got support got dropped recently

Wait, what? When? Why?

TIL that firing a laser energy weapon through cobwebs sets all the web tiles it passes through ON FIRE. I’m not going back to that lab again.

Depending on the layout and available space you might be able to wait it out, my first response to fungal infestations in labs is to torch em and the walls tend to mostly contain it.

I’m not 100% on the exact reasons, but here are what I heard:

  1. It’s not actually curses
  2. Very few people use it
  3. Because of the above two, when performance issue cropped up on the server building it ( Both with the automatic builds, and the automatic testing for PRs ), it wasn’t worth it to maintain.

Do you need a jackhammer to dig trough rock?, i wanted to link two hose basements, but cant dig trough rock with a pickaxe, just the normal wall.

Iirc you can dig through rock with a pickaxe, it just takes forever and tends to exhaust you. Unless it was changed recently. I confess it’s been a long while since I tried to tunnel anywhere in game.

Is it possible to change jsons in order to minimise ‘the spawn’ of diesel and gasoline? In my opinion there is too much fuel everywhere

Could someone explain the new batteries, kind of confusing how they work now
