Hehe, it actually says food cooking quality of 2 or more. Which means: pots and frying pans

… Fuck my stupidity.

Uh… What can you do with the Amigara Faults?

I thought you could get Amigara Horrors, but the tremors aren’t doing anything.

2.) There seems to be a bug with funnels, if I remove a container from the tile they’re on, it seems that it won’t work ever again to collect rain, even if I deconstruct the funnel and replace it. What do?

I still need an answer for this one :/. I’m going to start dieing of thirst if I can’t get my water collectors working again, and I really don’t want to abandon my current location in favor of finding a river.

[quote=“dovla, post:2796, topic:42”][quote=“prytoclasm, post:2795, topic:42”]Just some random hint, even if for higher characters which use bionics and can craft CBM:PowerStorage MK-II: When you enter a Laboratory, take some plutonium cells with you and disassemble all the terminals you can not use, or do not want to use or that have no use for you anymore and craft power storage units.

Last visit in a laboratory increased my max storage from 240 to 550.[/quote]
Crafting all those Amplifier Circuits and Power Converters to create even more CBMs has the added benefit of grinding your electronics skill, making CBM installation less risky. I curbed my OCD by limiting myself to only scavenging consoles on the first level of the lab.[/quote]

How do you disassemble something which isn’t in your inventory?

Construction menu, deconstruct furniture.

Well, you could always abandon your base to find a swamp, they tend to have alot of water

Are 8 tentacle arms good for anything besides getting in a slap fight with a zombie?

JakeAM · 2014-04-05T02:15:04.000Z

Anyone got any cool suggestions for making explosions with few items?

Hibou · 2014-04-05T02:55:17.000Z

Matchbook bombs are always nice. Or pipe bombs if you’re feeling especially anarchistic.

Blackopsman9999 · 2014-04-05T04:34:04.000Z

Well if you want warmth grab that HEDP rocket and light it for a small bon fire. Little known fact, the metal on the rocket is actualy a very slow burning material that is not put out by run and lasts 2 days on fire! Or you know, go boom. Either one will work.

Quick question: The broken robots, how do I dissassemble them? Tried butcher, the dissassemble menu, tossed one on top of some dynamite for the halibut, nothin works. =/

John_Candlebury · 2014-04-05T11:25:40.000Z

They lack disasembly recipes as of now. So they are completely useless. Just leave them there laying on the ground.

Lawliman · 2014-04-05T11:26:57.000Z

Alright, thanks. ^^

JakeAM · 2014-04-05T15:45:24.000Z

Anyone any idea what happened here? I seemed to have randomly died when I put down my turret.

John_Candlebury · 2014-04-05T15:50:25.000Z

You probably missprogrammed it to be hostile. It happens when you place them and have low computers skill.

JakeAM · 2014-04-05T15:56:18.000Z

But all my health is max, I see it shot me, but I don’t believe it could have killed me in one turn.

I recently destroyed a fungal spire, but it doesn’t seemed to have helped clear up the fungal bloom:

Will all the fungaloids die out on their own, given time?
