The new feature in latest release, how do you do this ?[/quote]

Activate a knife-type object while standing near/on top of a non-pulped zombie corpse

Watch out for your morale though

Nevermind, I just had to move my car. Why this worked and not blowing up a mininuke, I don’t know. I’m holed up in a modified sewage treatment plant.

I cant do it, there is no option for it. only cut material, carve writing and cauterize. Tried it on different non pulped zombie corpes.

Buff up all my skills to 50 through debug menu, still nope, no options for “pack mule” thingy.

Only reason i can see why it won t work the is that your playing stable.

DoReVo · 2014-11-18T18:33:36.000Z

Oh so its in the experimental ? Yeah i was playing the latest stable.

Valpo · 2014-11-18T18:57:13.000Z

It should be in stable 0.B? iI am not sure but isn t it released? are you playing 0.A?

edit: i checked and it has been released.

There is an area that every time I go near I get deafened, I don’t know whats causing it. Anyone know what might be causing it? I would very much like to get rid of it.

There is a triffid grove near but it’s about 8 over-map tiles away from the deafening area, don’t see a queen anywhere.

Can anyone explain the deal with martial arts to me? Because it seems like 100% fluff and 0% meat. There are like 400 different styles and they all seem to boil down to walking into a guy and seeing “you batter X for Y damage”. Am I supposed to be going to a menu to pick moves or something?

are you holding a weapon in your hands? did you chose a stile?
and yes you walk into an enemy and moves are performed randomly depending on your chosen stile.
for example using brawling you can trip enemies which makes them stumble away from you + you can start a counter attack if they hit you.

also consider that you need higher lvl in unarmed combat to unlock techs from the martial arts. not all are available (proly none) at unarmed 0.
they unlock as you lvl that skill.

Catfoodbob · 2014-11-18T22:15:16.000Z

could drunken brawler apply to martial arts that you use if you dont have a techniqe unlocked it would give it to you ?

So about the Camera and E-Ink Tablet, is there a difference in the quality of photos? All i’m taking are exceptional photos. (Ps, it would be really neat if it acted like a bestiary, showing stats, spawn zones, etc)

Also, how does one make Zlaves? i haven’t been able to find any documentation on that.

Thwap · 2014-11-18T23:46:30.000Z

Fire, smoke, electricity etc. are all invisible to me in this version. Maybe because I’m using software rendering. Unplayable.
