So I walked into three madpoles on accident. Lost my right arm, left hand, and face. Only my face regenerated when using the freebie Ubernostrum injector from joppa. Is my character dead short of looking up how to wish more injectors?

Also this game is amazing. I'm about thirty hours in on the steam release. Loving every minute thus far.

Must say, after deleting my farthest save thus far to a presumable bug, I've been having infinite amount of fun with this game. Absolutely worth every penny. Will recommend to every friend with any free time! Massive thanks to UNormal and all the devs!

Finally hit #1 on the daily build yesterday. The only real early game obstacles I could find were two mimics. One in the waterlogged tunnel going down from joppa, and another up from the other end. Died because I was getting tired and the clock was approaching midnight. Solid daily though, I'd like more with drawbacks I'd never take like spontaneous combustion; it seemed to do more damage the higher level I was which was a nest way to scale the drawback and keep it relevant.

Do Bloated Leeches drop corpses? I had a fungus cure require one, but I've never actually seen one drop.

Yes. Though for the most part I just wish corpses up for cures. Its usually too much of a pain in the rear end to find them. Especially when its salt kraken or something equally awful.

Looks like inputting world seeds is broken on my version since the update today? I put the seed in, hit start game, and it just boots me back to the New Game menu. I can't highlight any op the menu options but I do hear the mouse-over sounds. Pressing escape from this point allows me to highlight and select a choice again, but as previously mentioned inputting a seed doesn't get me where I want to go.

Game is amazing Unormal and crew, y'all deserve all the praise possible.

Edit: Upon slightly further investigation; The seeds I'm inputting aren't the same seed I get at the bottom of the character sheet. For example: trying to input Tuxedo Catfish's BEMOMMEMBCBEBLBOCB Gives the output seed of BDKJMMNLBHBQBRDKDZEG. Dunno if this information is at all useful.

Edit2: This is beta branch, I'm sure that's helpful to know.

Just to be sure, are you entering the code via Chose character build from library > Enter code? If you put a character code into the world seed option you get weird results

Yeah turns out I shouldn't try and play before having coffee. Thanks so much.

Hey Unormal, found a bug(?) in beta on the daily run!

Using metamorphosis(lvl2) on Warden Ulraig spawns a new Ulraig, then gives me the error : "Well, the player managed to end segment with no current cell and that's not ideal so I'm going to return the player to a cell on the current map."

edit: Checked a few other targets and yeah, metamorphosis just seems bugged, lol. Talk about game-breaking. Infinite water rituals!

Seems like Golgotha. But I really hope not. I adore Golgotha for what a huge gut check it is. It asks several questions that if you're early to early mid-tier build and don't know what's coming, you may have no answer and I adore that about it. About Qud.

Qud is absolutely a learn and be better game. Yes, of course, it is possible to beat it on your first playthrough. But I'm sure 99% of players are gonna splat to a hulking baboon or some other early threat and go:" Well drat. What could I have done to avoid that death?" and push on.

Therein lies the spirit of Qud. It is the scientific method: the rogue like. gently caress around and find out. Die lots. Grow. Be better. :black101:

Idly starting a new run in King of Dragon Pass I noted that one of the clan generation options is to help your god and his son track the "Sky Bear."

You can not convince me this is not related. I have found the pre-apocalypse world that Qud takes place in. :tinfoil:

I just hope he has a ceremonial vibro khopesh. It'd really help fight off those ducks.

the horns/regen build posted upthread worked great, i'd never played anything like that

and when i needed to get to places i couldn't, i just bashed my antlers against walls a thousand times until they broke

So I am playing a similar build but took the space time vortex negative trait. So in practice, I only use charge on walls I need gone, and it procs two vortices every time. It's very satisfying. :science:

Recently started playing. Was wondering a lot about how to get started, reading and watching things. Until suddenly this one run worked-not because of strategy or character builds or me understanding the game or anything, but because on spawn the warden in Joppa immediately murdered the questgiver guy as well as a bunch of farmers and for some reason Mehmet(?) had a fullerite longsword that does 1d12 damage. So now my randomly generated water merchant with poo poo toughness and no knowledge of how to use swords is running around killing all the crocs in one hit.

This is a good game.

EDIT: then I died of overconfidence because of a random snapjaw warlord who spawned in the salt marsh while I was walking around on foot.

New player posting is the best. I'm not good enough to give advice, but please keep us updated on learning new fun ways to die.

Not a fun way to die, but this playthrough I got excited because a legendary gunsmith's workshop spawned in the marsh right out of Joppa. The gunsmith wasn't there. There were no hostiles. There were only empty boxes. I went down to the dungeon level. It was loving covered with empty boxes and several rooms, all of which were filled with empty boxes. Chests and baskets were both included.

It was weird.

Also in one of my runs the Zealot wandered into one of the houses with a chest in Joppa and I had to wait for her to leave before I could properly rob the place. But then I got killed by a croc.

I can't tell you how many times I've had to murder that poor cat because I didn't notice it whilst plundering chests in Joppa.

anyways i'll see the new content eventually, i just have to remember how to git gud

I have begun collecting oil from the mines to sell at the stilt to save up for that neutron flux

Level 5 of the mine had a corpse that was not covered in tar, it had... a jewel encrusted laser pistol

Update: Even deeper into the mine, many crabfriends, few enemies, tar everywhere, I am liking how the names change as you descend in the mines. I wonder how deep it goes.

I have passed the tar pool into the lava fields, everything is on fire, the crabs remain my friends.

Level 27 currently, angry ants and friendly giant magma crabs. I have discovered a set of flawless crysteel gauntlets. I assume those are high end goods.

Level 28, I have found a taco. I assume it is valuable and good because it is purple

I am loving these updates.

And yes, I believe flawless crysteel is top tier gear.

I press T to talk to Mehmet.

I throw a grenade at him.

But T is bound to talk... and thrown weapons has no keybind...

What gives?

I've heard of some hinky stuff with keybinds and the new UI. That's a bit odd though.

Also, still VERY Qud that your character decided to throw a grenade as a form of greeting.
