No, it only runs off of its internal power supply.
Can anyone link to an explanation of the new aiming/dispersion system?
Or I could just write one here?
Basically, dispersion is in minutes of arc (roughly fifteenths of the previous measurement, so everything looks larger but shouldn’t be Less Accurate). Sight-dispersion is the sights being imprecise, and the main dispersion is the gun itself. Ammo affects that as well. Dispersion moves your shot away from your aim point, and your skills (weapon/marksmanship) counter that.
Hitting “f” or whatever key you’ve got set for gun use brings up the weapon, and you point it roughly at the tile in question. In order to actually use the sights and aim (making sure that pre-dispersion aim point is on the target), you use the various keys there to spend time on the shot. As you do, the Steadiness bar fills, and you should see some improvement in the Confidence bar.
Confidence key (the more symbols, the greater the chance):
- = relative chance for a crit/headshot
- = relative chance for a good hit, center-mass sort of thing
| = relative chance for any hit, may or may not damage through armor
The confidence bar is not itself very confident, by design, so it’s pretty safe to presume that if it thinks you have good odds, you do.
Thanks.
If I have it correct most of the time I shoot by hitting ‘ff’ at short range or ‘fc’ at medium range, but can take manual control if I need to?
I admit, the “degrees” of aiming are a bit confusing and it’s not always readily apparent what degree to use in particular situations. That, and the four of them seem a bit superfluous–I don’t necessarily know all the reasoning that went into creating four degrees (snap-shot, aim, careful aim, precise aim), but as an end user it seems like it could possibly stand to be pared down to three (regular fire, which presumes aiming in a timely fashion for combat situations; snap-shots for when you don’t have time to aim; and careful aiming for sniping) or possibly two (regular fire and sniping).

What’s the use of the Power Armor Interface CBM? I can run my power armor just fine with my Internal UPS CBM.
Hello, can someone explain the encumbrance numbers in the + menue to me please, I don’t understand the ingame explanation it sounds to me the same, what is the difference between the first and the second number?
You mean the 1+0=1 numbers?
Afaik the first number is the total “native” encumbrance of items worn while the second is the penalty encumbrance for wearing too many items in the same layer. Third number is self-explanatory.
Hey, thank you man! I have another questions, I have aquired some raw pelts, how do I do furs from them. I have survival skill of 2, do I need more than that?
To cure a pelt (preserve it) you need cooking and survival of 1. For a tanning fur pelt you need cooking 2 and survival 3, from what I can tell.
But where do I find this? Or do I need a recipy first?
You gain skills by practicing them. Cook stuff to up the cooking skill, butcher animals and zombies and (e)xamine bushes to forage and up your survival skill. I don’t think you need a recipe for a cured pelt but I think a tanning fur pelt does require a book of some sort.
dovla, I cant find it in the craft menue &. which tab is it there or is it something else? I have cooking 4 and survival 2 currently
Try pressing (f) while in the crafting menu, then search for pelt. If you don’t get any hits then it’s probably a book recipe.
Hey, I’ve been lurking around forums for quite a some time, but this is the first time I couldn’t find answer without posting the question. 
So, I was wondering- can you install vehicle parts using makeshift welder? I’m not sure whether it’s a bug, or it’s just made that way, but when I try to install a new part to a vehicle using my fully loaded makeshift welder and other required tools, it wont let me install it. Any advice?

Do you have welding goggles?

When installing a new part, it is also shown the item, tools and the level of your mechanics skill necessary to install it - all of these can be green if you have them, or red if you don’t. What are you missing?
As Flatgun pointed out, you might not have welding goggles. If you don’t have those (or don’t have a welder), in the install parts menu both welder and welding goggles are listed as red regardless.

I saw a bed of fungal fires near the town I was looting, so I decided to try the ‘kill it with fire’ approach. A few matches later and now I’ve started a massive raging fire that has engulfed not only the fungal flowers but the three houses right next to it.
How effectively will this kill the fungus? There’s a big fungus in the center that doesn’t seem to be affected.
