Fuuuuuuck fungal infections. I was literally in the middle of crafting an antifungal drug and it broke both my arms and hosed me  Now I'm driving around at max pain with two broken arms desperately trying to find somewhere that might have antifungals in stock and I can't even find a city to die in  e; oh my god I'm the dumbest bitch ever, after driving around for hours then running out of tramadol I was looking through my RV to see what painkillers I had available and I spotted... five antifungal meds

After killing fungal towers once just to prove I could I have never had a world with fungus since because they are nothing but a slog and a chore. Not even a challenge, just another frustration to deal with. My gratitude to whoever made the no fungus mod.

I seem to have hit some combination of buttons that makes the display not show tiles I can't see, like I forget them immediately as soon as they are out of view. Anyone know how I reverse that?

A dev has taken it upon themselves to fix the gaps in vehicles when they are at an angle. So... Expect great features with terrible bugs. This will break something.

I went a little too hard on the mutant cockroach meat and now my character is doing the alien hand. Is there any way to purge toxins out yourself? I didn't even know eating mutant cockroach was bad for you.

And the only indication you have them is that it prints "Your stomach churns" once every few hours, often in the middle of thousands of lines of combat spam. There is no way in-game to learn what this message indicates, because it's "immersive" that way.

I didn't even know eating mutant cockroach was bad for you. It wear off eventually after a few days, assuming you're not still eating the meat. You have stopped eating it, right? I don't think there's anything you can take to speed up the process.

Yeah, I've stopped eating the mutant meat, and I'm by and large getting it out of my stores of food. I've gone from unnerving to concerning symptoms, which I guess means that it's slowly coming out of me. Because of the lowered immunity, I also constantly have the common cold. I also discovered my diet of mutant meat, poo poo I find in cupboards, candy, and my rapidly growing stockpile of dehydrated fruit have all contributed to make my character a real life goon. I think it's a mark of honor that I've managed to become morbidly obese in an apocalypse. So fellas, don't chow down on that delicious Cockroach bratwurst, it's actually not good for you at all.

I used to constantly have problems with my characters getting fat and being sick all the time. Then I discovered the junk food intolerance trait. Take it, and never worry about your health stat again!

If you think junk food intolerance is going to keep me from trebucheting the entire contents of a snack machine into my face, you don't know me very well. Seriously, though, unless your town situation is absolutely dire, you have enough varied food to pick and choose what you eat. I tend to limit my junk food to pretzels, jerky, and meat sticks. Although my current character has the garden pots mod and has been subsisting almost entirely on carrots and tomatoes.

I'm finding it really hard to goon it up in the latest experimental patches. Used to be you could eat two entire pizzas and a 2L bottle of soda without flinching, but now when I settle down in a place for any length of time, the first thing I craft is a mop. It seems a whole lot less food will have you stuff to bursting and throwing up like Mr. Creosote. That's aside from the extra vomiting from antibiotics. Tried to cauterize a wound out in the field rather than drive back home, and apparently it immediately turned infected? Is that a new thing? Took a single dose of antibiotics, intending to take one every 12 hours - which is how I think they're supposed to work in Cata - but apparently a single dose completely cured the infection overnight. Just like the doctors recommend - if you feel better after taking your antibiotics, just stop! Left me vomiting for 24 hours from taking a single pill, mind. Hence the mop. Glad to see all that work on making the game serious and realistic isn't in vain. Wolfechu fucked around with this message at 04:34 on Jun 16, 2020 |

Cauterizing always progressed the infection on a failure, but at some point they drastically increased the degree to which it does so. So cauterization is, as far as I can tell, utterly useless now. Instead, you want to craft cattail jelly and use that to clean blue bites. It’s trivial to make, takes nothing but cattails, and is in several survival books.

You can antiseptic deep wounds to avoid the infection altogether, which is why its worth it to hold onto that antiseptic from a first aid kit.

Motherfucker posted:gonna miss the days of surviving on nothing but bread. As the good lord said, man shall not live on bread alone. After all, it's lacking several critical amino acids and micronutrients. A proper diet can be achieved by continually raiding the endless expanse of New England's various military and scientific installations for MREs. As god intended.

We had this brilliant weight saving idea of eating nothing but MREs for a two week backpacking trip. The resulting Godzilla dump I took a day or two after we got back almost ended me. Not to mention waking yourself up in the middle of the night because you just Dutch ovened yourself with the most hideous flatuence to ever leak between a pair of buttcheeks.

Apparently the Pythagorean theorem is real in Cataclysm, which is highly irregular for roguelikes. I just noticed this now, that diagonal movements take almost 50 percent longer

Circular distances use Pythagorean to increase the movement cost of diagonals, I'm not sure if that stacks by summing or multiplying the movement cost of difficult terrain. I thought it was off by default, should be in the world options somewhere. It is highly irregular for roguelikes but as Kevin said when it was brought up in a PR, I don't much care what other roguelikes do, especially since I don't consider dda to be a roguelike.

I often do the 'kite zombies into a fire' thing early on, and they really seek to go into them diagonally.

Is there some bug that makes all labs the one-floor office kind? I've been to like eight in a row with that kind of setup and not a one with an autodoc.

One is called “lab” and the other is called “science lab”. I think the 1 floor variant is “lab” but don’t quote me on that. Autodocs also spawn in at least one doctors office layout so that’s an option.

I've found at least 2 auto docs in basements, in some rooms slightly hidden behind the fridges. Oddly they both also had pools in them.

If you do it quickly you can do a cauterization, then if that fails do a disinfectant cleaning and not worry, if you really gotta stretch your stocks. It is time sensitive though, so be careful, you don't want to wait a few hours then try, or the wound will go to infection right away if it fails. God wound care is so dumb in this.

I've never had to cauterize because I always had disinfectant/booze available. ...I forgot to mention that hard alcohol works too. E: matches IRL; every time I bash my shin open on the coffee table, I splash a little vodka/whiskey on it and my leg hasn't fallen off yet. goatsestretchgoals fucked around with this message at 07:07 on Jun 17, 2020 |

Like someone posted earlier, I always just bathe in cattail jelly after outings where I take any damage. As soon as you get the recipe, you have no excuse for ever getting infected.
