what do I need to make a generator, I’m thinking that I will need a engine but i’m not sure what else I would need.

An engine, an alternator, a gas tank and a battery, along with the requisite frames to fit all of it.

Big question guys: This town I’ve set up in is getting swarmed by Triffids, there’s no grove nearby, what do?

[FunsizeNinja123]

Find it.

[Datanazush]

Find it.

It’s around 50-60 map tiles away from my home base, yet there’s plants sprouting up everywhere. How far can a grove even reach?

[FunsizeNinja123]

Veerrrryy far.

[TheFlame52]

I love fungaloids, but hate triffids. There should be a plant pheromone mutation that makes triffids neutral but fungaloids hostile.

When on the final character creation page where you enter a name, you should see beneath that “Press ? to pick a random name.” and beneath that “Press / to select location.”[/quote]

i auto-quote to say: i’ve tried right now and i don’t see any “Press / to select location.” =(
are we talking of the stable version?

[Datanazush]

Nah, I think house spawns are only in Experimentals right now.

So what your telling me is not to eat ANYTHING uncooked, very strange ive eaten atleast 100+ strawberries and never got such a thing. so like your picture shows is there a way to pass the parasite naturally or can only be cured with medicine? not that I really care I really make my guy with a brain parasite commit suicide

[kilozombie]

Seems like according to the picture that the parasite only nests in certain types of foods, and even then only the types that aren’t properly grown/cared for.

It’s specifically raw meat, fish, fat, bones, or wild vegetables.

[quote=“blazing glory, post:3152, topic:42”]Me again,I accidentadly punched up a zombie with my fist’s,but when I realized I was punching it I noticed that I was dealing strikes at a very fast rate,though somewhat weak.

My question is this,how much potentional would this have if I leveled up the skill,and would brass knuckles and rubbish do blows at the same rate as fist’s?[/quote]
By the way, this is more effective than it seems, because every time you deal bashing damage to a monster it reduces their number of moves. On average the number of moves reduced is equal to the damage, so if you can get your damage per turn high enough, you can effectively stunlock them.

[quote=“KA101, post:3335, topic:42”]Uncooked meat, fat, or veggies, yeah. I think non-Clean water only gives food-poisoning.

What uncooked veggies have parasites? that seems like a bug in the code does it not?[/quote]
Technically it’s a bug

Find or brew up some Antiparasitic Drug. I take a dose every couple of weeks just as a precaution.

[Kyriolexical_Dino]

Not trying to ruin the whole parasite thing but here’s a completely different topic.
Does installing an eletric motor on my car reduce it’s normal gasoline consumption? If you still don’t understand, does having two diferent types of fuel (eletricity and normal fuel) splite the consumption between those two?

[Arek_PL]

even if it will not reduce fuel usage i think this will increase speed and more speed = more efective fuel usage*

[size=4pt]*i am not sure i am not responsible for fuel loss and/or injury or death[/size]

[TheFlame52]

Yes, it consumes both fuel types, increasing your speed but not making it more efficient.

Hey guys, got the fleet footed trait but the movement cost for normal ground is still 100, im playing experimental, I have tested out a new character to see if fleet footed actually works and it does, so just wondering what could possibly be canceling out my fleet footed on my main character, the only things im wearing is jeans that fit and a undershirt that also fits, I have no negative effects and my morale doesn’t effect it
