Has anyone run into an issue where they suddenly can't craft clean water without a water purifier? The trusty atomic coffee maker isn't working anymore. edit: nevermind, it turns out I accidentally his the recipe Manager Hoyden fucked around with this message at 18:00 on May 31, 2020 |

I am still just playing the most recent stable version, and I found a laser rifle in the bottom floor of one of the labs I raided. After installing it in an automated turret, I gotta admit, it is a ton of fun to just annihilate hordes of zombies with endless beam spam. However, it doesn't really seem more effective than, say, an automated M249 for which you can get virtually unlimited ammo, it just doesn't have that nagging feeling I always get whenever I fire a conventional weapon that I am consuming a finite resource. I suppose I will be using the aftershock mod on the next stable release.

The laser rifle shines as a personal weapon, though. I don't know if you can currently, but last time I got anywhere with it I was running it off my cyborg power, which is a lot easier to carry and generate than ammo, meaning less trips back to the car to reload my magazines. I'd have to check and see if that's the case now. It's also smaller, and less noisy than the m249 is.

I dunno if this is common knowledge but apparently cloaking plus a vehicle with an automated turret is an effective countermeasure against flaming eyes. The eyes don't look at you if you're cloaked, and you can get close enough, fast enough to easily kill them before you run out of bionic energy.

Can't you kinda achive the same by crouching behind the wheel while you drive up to them? I swear I read that you can stop turrets from seeing+shooting you that way while you plow towards them with your deathmobile

It's the same reason you have deathmobiles with no windows and only cameras for vision. Eyes/turrets/other non-scent-baddies completely ignore you if they don't have line-of-sight of your character.

It breaks both my sense of immersion, realism and moral decency that characters with the small or tiny trait aren't counted as permanently crouched for the purposes of sight, permissible exceptions for driving if they are equipped with an inflatable donut and platform shoes to reach the peddles.

As you'd expect, the infalliable logic of "This is the correct decision because I'm clearly right" and the fact that he's the ultimate arbiter of what is and isn't allowed to be in the game, means that most of the other main contributors are just as bad, unfortunately.

So the description for the advanced UPS says it can't be recharged with a charging station which makes sense since it uses plutonium as the power source. But can you recharge these things when you're lucky enough to get some plutonium cells or are they just trash once they're empty?

But can you recharge these things when you're lucky enough to get some plutonium cells or are they just trash once they're empty? Yeah, you can load up to 5 plutonium cells into an advanced UPS for a total of 2500 energy. It seems like plutonium energy is somehow more efficient than standard batteries, like those 2500 plutonium energy points can be used for more than 2500 standard UPS points

Cool! Hope I can find some cells when I get into my first lab Also one weird trick I learned today is that your headlamp works just as well when you carry it in your pocket and activate it there instead of having it on your head. Was getting annoyed that it always took damage while I'm fighting and figured this out on accident

All the other drugs I found say that they're very addictive so I'm not looking to take them until it's my last resort

If you do need to keep the pain down and are real paranoid about it you can mix it up with other pain killers. Start your day off with some morphine and end it with some oxycodone!

Examine any minireactors/cells for damage and avoid them if they do.

But yeah I get it now. I figured since the major line of design is slanted towards punishing the player you would be getting slammed with addictions if you take that trait. But if it's not so bad then I can keep a shot of morphine on me for those cool situations where you stumble into a shocker inside a building and can't run away from them before you get hosed up. gently caress shockers btw

Addictive Personality and Lightweight are both free points disads that relate to how the game used to be played. Once upon a time drugs would give you stat buffs, and the drug disadvantages made it harder to use them so they mattered, but then I guess that was unrealistic so now the most you can get from extreme levels of caffeination is like +1 speed. Other drugs do literally nothing except making you briefly happy. Nowadays the only addictive substance you’re likely to take enough of simultaneously to get addicted to is mutagen, which is also an incredibly toothless addiction that just makes you sad for a few days and wastes some time. Good thing we fixed that! Everyone knows chemicals don’t do anything, that’s why every sports league in the world doesn’t have a list of banned performance enhancers! Even electronic sports! Realism is the goal! BlondRobin fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Jun 4, 2020 |

The audience for this game is the people making it." That is the response. If you like this game I suggest backing up a copy of every version you play and like and learn the simple json system to change the things that irk you. One day a version will come down the pipe that is finally too stupid to play and you will probably want a backup of the last fun version.

Oh yeah of course there will be a fork that'll be irregularly updated for about six months before everyone working on it gets tired of it and moves on. That's the thing about these types of games. It takes a very specific type of person to work for free on something this complex and that sort of person is awful. If you want to know what happens to a normal human being when they are exposed to the toxic socially stunted fiefdoms of community development, follow the tale of the deadpeople tileset guy.
