how do you change the key layout, I’ve tried to do it a few times and it keeps crashing the game, am i doing something wrong?

Aside from changing local rather than global binds, I’m not sure why messing with keys would cause crashes. Write it up and post in the Garage, would you?

er wait there’s a difference between local binds and global binds? Could changing local bindings crash the game?

Local is to a particular part of the game, such as the main screen, map screen, bionic screen, etc. Changing global seems the only one that could cause a crash. But in any event, if yours are acting up, file a report in the Garage.

Gives you power when you drink beer and such.

Is there a way to split stacks of ammo? I have too many fusion packs to fit into just one turret. (I have 900)

digitCruncher · 2014-10-12T21:30:48.000Z

Lets say the fusion packs are in slot ‘x’. Then, I think the keypresses to drop 250 fusion packs is

‘D’ ‘’ ‘2’ ‘5’ ‘0’ ‘x’ ‘’

Haven’t tested it on turrets, but pretty sure that should work…

digitCruncher is correct.

Um im wondering what i have done wrong, I found myself a humvee and took off the browning then replaced it and added ammo, i then drove round town and the turret beeped at me the text was the turret (or something like that) turns toward you and beeps, this happend 5 times each time one more beep then it killed me. the turret turned and shot em inside my vic. What happend

TheFlame52 · 2014-10-13T00:18:13.000Z

I think the turret was trying to shoot something, but you were in the way. Eventually, the thing moved, and the turret judged you were out of the way enough that it could shoot. You weren’t actually out of the way enough and it shot you to death on accident.

mwswimmer · 2014-10-13T00:47:14.000Z

then why the fuck was it beeping at me

For people who aren’t really into wilderness survival set city size to max, choose ambush scenario and let the good times roll. I haven’t had this much fun in a while. There is just about no forest as far as I can tell just one huge ass city with enough gun stores to make me proud to be 'murican!

Goombah · 2014-10-14T13:52:47.000Z

I thought I was unarmed when I was trying to beat the Spitter Zombie to death.

…but instead, I beat it to death with a trenchcoat.

We can make vinegar, right? I mean, we can do most other brewing things, but I can’t find a way to make vinegar. The Item Browser doesn’t list a crafting recipe, but that makes sense, because it is actually a brewing recipe, and those aren’t listed AFAIK.

Home-made vinegar would be awesome, as it would mean a (nearly) renewable source of batteries, which would make my life easier. Also, pickling.

Nobody’s ever filed a PR, IIRC.

Hardest part of making adding bloat to games: setting up the environment. I’m trying to git gud at git now, so I can add “missing” recipes and fix bugs too tiny to report (like thunders being hearable by the deaf).

digitCruncher · 2014-10-15T01:21:24.000Z

Not a huge problem, I’m not complaining. I will just start on looting missions for books, electronics, and … vinegar.

Sounds cool!
