That part of the OP has always been bad info that's been mis-communicated from the good info that (at least once upon a time): if you're not taking any other negative traits NOR boosting your strength, glass jaw + 3 points of strength makes your character generally better in exchange for like -3 head HP or something like that. Note how incredibly specific that situation is. EDIT: Still, it's a situation that came up a lot in new players' builds. TheBlandName fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Jun 25, 2016 |

What happens when you go over the limit of bionics in a slot? I have 112/80 in my torso right now and I don't see any negative effects. Also I don't really want to uninstall anything so I just hope its nothing.

The thing about Cataclysm is the apocalypse happened literally yesterday which is why the fridges are full of perishables and some abandoned cars are still running.

I'm a few versions behind since I don't like to update mid-save file, so keep that in mind when I say I think they're still experimenting with bionic limits and right now it's just a vestigial UI feature that has no gameplay effects.

same but if you find a car with a dead battery why not take the battery out and replace it with a battery from a car that has charge once you find enough gas, providing your alternator's + battery's not too damaged, you can just idle the car overnight and fill up on juice easy. if your alternator and battery are yellow, you should always pop them out and replace them, as it requires less mechanics to switch out than it does to repair. also, always go for truck rather than car alts/batts, the extra capacity and charge rate more than makes up for the slight fuel inefficiency and speed decrease of your vehicle

Someone is a furry and the devs don't care enough to remove it I guess. I'm pretty sure there are mods that you can enable to remove those things when generating the world, as it stands you can just ignore them and chop up any wolf suits into rags and burn them. Or if you want to brave the icy cold, maybe even put one on (gasp how horrifying!) because they are, well, very warm, thick, full body suits.

Modifying an expanded SWAT truck with an enhanced electric engine (and later on, two of them), armoured monster truck tires, as many upgraded solar panels as I could fit, and 3-4 batteries on every non-edge tile allowed me to create a solar-powered behemoth helltank with effectively infinite energy. This thing could simultaneously run a pair of laser cannons, multiple internal charging stations, dual enhanced electric engines, a bunch of floodlights, and every type of onboard workshop 24 hours a day for an entire winter - all while hauling around and regularly repairing tons upon tons of extremely heavily armoured survivorbus stacked to the roof with crafting materials, gold bars, stacks of money, guns, porn, vibrators, and drugs - without losing more than 2-3% of its total charge at most. What I'm saying is that creating a self-sustaining, all-purpose combination tank/RV is how you win this game, and battery stacking is an important part of that.

Angry Diplomat posted:What I'm saying is that creating a self-sustaining, all-purpose combination tank/RV is how you win this game, and battery stacking is an important part of that. I've never had trouble getting by with just storage batteries. A storage battery has around 13x the capacity of car battery + motorbike battery in current experimental. That's like 90% of the capacity in a battery stacked vehicle. This will probably still hold truish when they get around to rebalancing storage batteries. A quick look at modern storage batteries says you get 5x or 6x the kWh of a car battery at around 4x the weight. So adding car and motorbike batteries will give you something like 20% extra capacity. Nice, but not vital.

Phoneposting but as of a couple months ago it was 15k motorcycle, 35k(?) car, 50k truck, and 100k storage. So you can almost double per-tile capacity by stacking motorcycle/car/truck batteries. This was more important to my game style because my go to supercar is 5x7, with 14 of those tiles as bumpers.

There have been a lot of rebalances and migrations since then. https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/commit/a0f75d284192a2fe20dffe25f287f119c8827b10 on March 11 changed those comparison rates, then a bunch of stuff in https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/commits/1d5027547d204632bb51d1090b6715fb383f9a43/data/json/items/vehicle/battery.json messed with it some more. But yeah stacking gets more useful if you're constrained on space. I rarely am but that's a killdozer design decision on my part.

so can you die from not sleeping for like 5 days because you drank around 30 cups of atomic coffee, other than the obvious radiation poisoning? i kinda don't want to lose this character cause i had a real good start by finding an atomic coffee maker and lamp, along with a working motorcycle.

I don't think so. If you're really tired the game usually just just forces you to fall asleep. That can obviously happen at a very inopportune time though.

This is stupid but I believe what wakes you up when you cough is actually the noise it makes. So if you dose yourself with painkillers and put some earplugs in you should be able to sleep better.

Yeah but I assume that what kept you up wasn't the noise of the coughing, rather than the fact that your chest is heaving. If you put a pair of ear defenders on it wouldn't alleviate the symptoms of a cough.

True but on a truly poo poo cold you eventually just end up passing the gently caress out because you're really really tired. Dead tired is accurate but the inability to sleep is not.

Anyone else experiencing issues with the scraps of metal not stacking? It looks like charges now, I can't repair my weapons. Also if you move partial piles/charges using the advanced inventory, you lose the remaining bunch. Edit: Appears to only be an issue with the awl spear. Has anyone repaired this weapon?

If it's like the standard cold you could get in the game then drowsy cough syrup will let you sleep longer than 30 minutes. Mix with alcohol if needed.

Sleeplessness won't kill you, but atomic coffee is powerful enough to be an overdose risk. I think chugging 4 or 5 of them at once will give you a stimulant heart attack.

I started as a Black Belt with decent strength and karate, then almost immediately found a zweihander. Would it be better for me to keep using unarmed (with the 8 melee/8 unarmed skill I started with), or use this ridiculously-damaging sword (with 8 melee but zero weapon-specific skill)?
