Tips, Tricks, and Newb Questions!

Here’s a neat trick using the charcoal kiln. If you can carry it around, find enough wood, turn on your flash light and fill the kiln, then turn your flash light off. You can just activate it to get instant brightness for reading into dark weather.

If you can make the kiln, you can easily make lightstrips, which are infinitely better at this job and don’t make you visible.

It stopped when weather was turned from global to local.

I updated the wiki entry for tankbot recently:

They’re surprisingly easy to assassinate at night, but if you see one during the day, just run. Or if your speed is below average, take stimm drugs and run.

Nope.
Glass items will always break (purifier is stored in flasks). Not sure about the others, but don’t think they take any damage. Just grab a shovel, because they’re likely to get buried.

An issue that confuses me about the operations of control laptops: What exactly is the difference between combat mode and passive mode?

Just a little question: Is safe to wear 2.5 canteen full of gasoline?

Last I heard(a week or so ago?) there is currently no acid rain right now. Turned off due to bugs(maybe balance depending on whom you ask).[/quote]
It’s turned off until we get weather based on location.

This made me think: Is it possible to pour out a little of something, or only full bangs?

Yes.

Only full containers, unless you are pouring into a smaller container.

APCs are hard to drive, I may have just crashed one into my large tent.
How do you repair large damaged tents? I tried using the soldering iron since it was plastic and aluminum, but now I just have a reinforced large damaged tent, which doesn’t really make sense but okay.
I’m going to assume it either can’t be repaired or it’s a crafting recipe, and what skill level is it at, because I can’t find it with 7 fabrication and 6 survival, which it would make sense to know how to repair a tent with those skills.

I have seen something like damaged somethign + something else = something.

Maybe it was the tent you speaking of…

No, that’s the shelter kit. I don’t think tents are as easy to fix.

How do I disassemble a sheet, towel, or emergency jacket? I have a sewing kit & pocket knife, but I can’t cut 'em up.

It might sound stupid, but have you tried disassembling?

The “(” key to be precise.

Nah, still doesn’t work. It says “this item cannot be disassembled.”

a -> knife hotkey -> enter -> clothing hotkey

Thanks! :slight_smile:

what does the underbarrel laser dot sight do statistically for you.

Speeds aiming, I believe.

I don’t suppose it’s possible to permanently change what hotkey goes for which tool or weapon or such?

For example, I am used to my pocket knife being assigned to f, my sewing kit being assigned to q, my crowbar h, etc.

It gets a bit tiring resetting it every time I die.

Does anyone know how to do the npc mission sombody forgot to encode this
