Is there a way too check the time? I was running around and suddenly I can't see poo poo. I'm not sure if it's because a boomer exploded next to me or if its just dark outside. With a torch on I can see a bit further but apart from that its 1 tile in every direction.

In addition to what's already been noted, if you're running around again while outside and your vision starts dimming, that's your cue that night is falling and you soon won't be able to see poo poo. Daytime similarly is easily noted by slowly increasing your vision back to normal, if you happen to be awake before sunrise.

It's night time, there's a little meter near your character stats that shows the sun position in the sky. It takes a little getting used to. If you find some kind of watch or clock, that meter is replaced by the actual time.

I was running around for like 30min and it never came back :( Could it be because I got boomered to the face?

No, being boomered does not last that long. If you have a watch, what time is it? (Daytime comes back around 7 am I believe) If you don't, post a crop of what you see after "Spring, day 1" in the top-right corner.

I have closed the game now sorry. I did get to Spring, day 2 but it was still dark.

I have just found out that Spitters are just as lethal to other zombies as they are to me.

I was being chased by a brute and a spitter tried to goop me, he hit the brute which immediately turned into a pile of melted zed. Thanks spitter!

Fullscreen mode is quite unstable, I found it hates anything using flash player in the background. Windowed doesn't have that problem.

Honestly I have it in Windowed and I tried alt-tabbing with Warcraft open and the window just goes all black and I can't interact with it.

I just had an amazing start as a Mall Cop in a Mall.

There must be a giant ant's nest outside as I have ants invading the mall and zombies fighting them off.

All these people talking of Death Machines and I have barely figured out how to Drive without crashing and burning.









Or even make it a season without doing something stupid and getting myself killed and/or crippled beyond hope.

I got a bit too big for my boots on a really really successful Mall Cop run.

I was running around with a Fire Axe, Ceramic plated vest and every piece of clothing I had was decked out in Kevlar and Leather. I found a supply drop and opened a crate to find 3 nades and 2 C4 charges. I decided I'd see if the C4 could blow open doors on a bunker, turns out it can but the turrents behind the doors tore me to bits :(

That definitely won't end well. My advice is: DO. IT.

Edit: For the sake of being informative though; robust genetics just increases the odds of getting "good" mutations. Whether or not a particular "good" mutation is actually good is up for debate. The specifics of that is robust genetics changes the normal 2/3 chance of any mutation 1/3 chance of a bad mutation into 2/3 any 1/3 good. Won't save you from any addiction or overdose effects of mutagen though so :shrug:

What if I take Robust Genetics, the post trait that makes me heal from radiation, the negatrait that makes me emit radiation and the nega trait that makes me mutuate more often?

I thought this was a pretty sick combo

I don't know what exactly happens if you chug a bunch of mutagen but I think that just might be crazy enough to work? Am I crazy for thinking that?

I thought it would work well if I have my world set to Radiation causes Mutation.

So I'm constantly radioactive thus causing me to have an increased chance to mutate. The radiation is healing me constantly. And I constantly have a higher chance to do mutate in a positive direction.

I found a spare teleporter in one of those teleporter test rooms. :stare:

Then outside I found a military truck, which I used to ram a hole into the lab. There's that problem solved.

There is literately nothing in this game that can't be solved by throwing a heavy vehicle at it.

The way you deal with triffid queens is to drop a piece of paper on their extremely-flammable trails of foilage and set it on fire, sit around for a half hour, then after everything burns out you chop up all the delicious veggie steaks and fibers.

I never thought of that.

However chance your sitting around to constructing a fortress on their corpse.

Actually never mind. I parked my 20 mph car outside a garage, went in to look for a welder, and some zombie managed to immediately blow it up. Now I'm probably going to die to the big crowd I gathered by driving slooowly into the center of town.

e: related to this situation: The LAW rocket launcher claims to do 2500 damage, but it barely scratched a zombie hulk (or me, since I was in the larger-than-expected blast radius). Is it bugged or did I do something wrong?
