Wait, nvm, nvm. I just put it in the Cataclysm folder, not the save thing. NVm. Just me being retarded again.

10723

Is fine. Basically, put the mod folder in data/mods. Then go to the save folder, then the name of the save, and edit that file in there that says mods. It’ll list all mods the save uses.

10724

Is there a certain thing you have to use when editing? I used notepad, typed in the mod with rest of them EXACTLY how it was, and nothing happened.

10725

I’ve used notepad and wordpad on it, so…

Make sure it’s formatted right, and has appropriate use of commas?

10726

I added another comma, added quotation marks, put it in right. Is it the spaces?

10727

Does it puke up any errors on loading the save?

10728

No.

10729

Then it should be loading fine. Depending on the mod content, the effect might not be apparent. Any recipes should be accessible immediately if you meet the requirements for learning them, but items, monsters, and new mapgen areas might not start spawning until you venture into unexplored territory, to allow the save to generate more of the map.

I’m wondering on how I could use mounted guns.

I’ve seen tons of mounted guns bolted on cars (Water cannons, Flamethrowers, Hundreds of mounted M60’s) with no idea on how to even use them.

Is there any way to sort items in one tile in alphabetical order? Would be a godsend with 650 volume.

And more importantly - Why cant I find an item with SHIFT+V if its loaded onto a vehicle?!

/ > s > choose between sorting by:
unsorted(recent to first)
Name
Weight
Volume
Charges
Category
Damage

Use the advanced item management features - hit ‘/’ and take the time to figure out how it works. It is WONDERFUL.

10735

Which ones? I’ve tried Mutated Poppy, Bluebell, Dahlia, And Dandelion.

10736

Huh, odd. Is it winter, maybe?

10737

No, It’s Spring…

Is that the problem?

10738

Hmm, it should work then. Um…let me get my source-diving hat on. =w=

EDIT: Wearing any mutation-friendly mouth gear, like a long scarf?

    if ( ((p->has_trait("PROBOSCIS")) || (p->has_trait("BEAK_HUM"))) && ((p->get_hunger()) > 0) &&
         (!(p->wearing_something_on(bp_mouth))) ) {
        if (!query_yn(_("You feel woozy as you explore the %s. Drink?"), m->furnname(examp).c_str())) {
            return;
        }

Oops, I’ve been wearing the XL Gas Mask. Possibly for LONG time. And yeah, that was it.

Newb question: I found a luxury RV to strip for parts and install in my van. One of those parts happened to be a 30 gallon drum so I was able to install a water tank.

My question is … how the hell do I fill it with clean water? I can’t find a menu option for that anywhere.

EDIT: Okay, I had to do several forum searches but it looks like you use the “refill” command on the vehicle construction screen? Will test this after I cook some more clean water, I dumped all my clean water on the road trying to figure it out.
