Can a manual for ninjitsu be found on the current stable version? I checked debug and an item for it seems to exist, but I never found it on any dojo before. Am I just unlucky?

Looks like it isn’t on the dojo’s manual itemgroup, and the normal martial manuals itemgroup doesn’t have it either. Seems to only show up on the military books itemgroup.

Other places it can be found is houses (rarely) and mansions (not as rare due to size and chance of certain rooms spawning). Just keep that it mind you are not unlucky yet.

What does the Close Quarters Battle CBM actually /do/? By the time I got it, I already had Melee 19, so I can’t really say if there was any improvement in my fighting.

Random_dragon · 2015-05-29T00:10:51.000Z

Biojutsu, apparently.

So I have been trying to disassemble a policebot but it’s to heavy and starts giveing lots of pain so I look around and find a post that says press “B” to disassemble on the ground with the right tools. But when ever I do It says “There are no corpses here to butcher” what tools do I need and can the bot be broken and if it can’t what should I do to make it so that I don’t brake it. Thank you

Either that or it gives you the bionic fighting technique.

It gives you three unarmed fighting styles when activated. Bionic combat, muay thai, and one other thing I can’t recall.

Bionic Combatives or Biojutsu gives a +1 Dodge along with techniques that include a counter, rapid armed, rapid unarmed, impale, sweep, and wide attacks. It’s also compatible with Bionic Claws and Monomolecular Blade.

Basically it turns you into a cyberninja.

And now a derp question. Anyone know if the “vehicle facing indicator” that shows up in ASCII mode can be configured to appear in tiles mode? Does it have an entry for the purpose of assigning it a sprite in tile_config?

It may be hardcoded in ascii at the moment.
Similar to how hallucination is hardcoded.

You might need a screwdriver, I guess? Or a soldering iron? Then there’s the Integrated Toolset CBM. That’s guaranteed to give you most tools you’ll ever need. You CAN disassemble items while they’re on the ground. Later on you might find even heavier robot wrecks that you can’t even pick at all due to their extremely heavy weight.

Hard coded and yes it does work in tiles I have it all the time.

It doesn’t work on MShock24 or the modded version though, so it has to have a tileset designation if it DOES work on any other tileset. :V

Can I transfer a save from the stable version to the experimental ones?

Yes you can, just copy the save folder

Azrad · 2015-05-29T17:42:35.000Z

Ooh, nice. Might switch to experimental once the next year of my game starts.

Random_dragon · 2015-05-29T17:44:16.000Z

The only thing i that version differences MIGHT result in save incompatibility, so you will want to check and ensure it still works. o3o

Is there a way to restore deleted saves and worlds? Please? I’ve fucked up fucking bad.

One cheap way of unfucking is basically to do a hard save (save and quit) then exit the game when you mess up. The game doesn’t actually consider you dead until you return to the main menu.
