Tips, Tricks, and Newb Questions!

Did you try lowering it on yourself?

Yes, that’s how I found out.

+1 Thats how i play cata too xD.

Does anyone know all the colour codes for map notes? I like to map out my science labs in detail.

test it on Urist Mc Test subject

Since the door also pushes them back, I was thinking about digging a line of spiked pits in front of the door too. That way the unlucky Zeds first get hit by the spikes, then crushed by the door, which also pushes them back on the spikes.

A wire fence on the other side should keep me safeish while I operate the winch.

Hahahahaha

yes, now we have a Dwarven zombie atom smasher

Survivor atom smasher
Materials: steel, kevlar
This common atom smasher was heavily customized to smash undead atoms.

Though it’s not really an atom smasher. Currently the only real atom smashing happens when you drive a car into deep water.

Reading your comments on this, I know this might sound pretty dumb already, but when I did it I had no idea what had happened the first time I did it.

And when you drive a car over something. I often use it for that purpose, to get rid of trash.

Note: I have Per: 6

Alright so on day 4 I’m mopping up zombies for scrap after using a slingshot to be able to craft longbow. Imagine my surprise when I reach archery two and get the message “You’ll need a more accurate gun to keep improving your aim.” What gives with that? I crafted a short bow which that had just unlocked and got the same thing. I’m essentially trapped at archery 2. So I searched on the message and got the block of code below. Is this another case of bullshit hidden breakpoints like the draw strength stat? How do I even make sense of this garbage to know at what point my Per is too garbage or diminishing returns shortchanges my investment?

// If the dispersion from the weapon is greater than the dispersion from your skill, // you can't tell if you need to correct or the gun messed you up, so you can't learn. const int weapon_dispersion = used_weapon->curammo->dispersion + used_weapon->dispersion(); const int player_dispersion = skill_dispersion( used_weapon, false ) + ranged_skill_offset( used_weapon->skill() ); // High perception allows you to pick out details better, low perception interferes. const bool train_skill = weapon_dispersion < player_dispersion + rng(0, get_per()); if( train_skill ) { practice( skill_used, 4 + (num_shots / 2)); } else if( one_in(30) ) { add_msg_if_player(m_info, _("You'll need a more accurate gun to keep improving your aim."));

You have to aim better when you shoot to get more experience.

Quick answer:
Is it possible to get rid of the Marloss Carrier trait? Tried purifier twice, didn’t work.

I’m trying to keep my character as pure as possible.
Also, annoying message spam.

Where are the Alpha and Elf-a books? I am raiding fourth lab in my fruitless attempt to find one.

On a side note, wearing lots of stuff to keep warm is sort of funny. I imagine my survivor as walking ball of fur by now.

Elf-a is found in the standpipe maintenance log. It says it’s “Just for fun”, but is actually the only way to learn Elf-a mutagens.

I think Alpha is one of the proposals, but i’m not 100% sure.

It’s too late for the spam. You’re addicted now and there’s no turning back AFAIK.
