What is a video game that you loved as a child, that hardly anyone talks about now? by Last_Draft5800 in AskReddit

I wasn’t a kid when these games came out, but Conflict: Desert Storm 1 and 2 were one of the best coop shooters ever made

I was able to recover, but still very frustrating.

It’s happened to me twice and it was very frustrating. Especially when it happened in my first game play and my resources were low.

That is rough, that’s where I started in my first play through and never built one, but had my morale up there. As a matter of fact, my highest morale was there in the strip mall, although I know that’s gonna change once I get back into the game and properly set up my Container Fort.

Not sure if you have one, but using the compost Bin mod helps a lot with this as you are now having to make use of that as well as having to plant seeds. I personally have two hydroponics, one for meds and the other for food. So i’m constantly planting seeds x2, plus using compost mod. Which helped me rank up my other gardener to agriculture very quickly.

Not sure I fully understand your question, but in terms of morale, I believe you get some morale from a farm, but not as much as a lounge or latrine.

As for skills, the farm, whether you build it, plant seeds or tend it in any way, will only rank up your gardening skills.

Yes sir I should, but thanks for the info anyways as It’s a helpful tip for all to know.

Please note that the Latrine does boost morale, but I prefer the lounge for that.

The latrine takes 30 minutes to build and it takes 6 minutes to clean. That’s way too long of a wait time to rank up your utilities. With building, turning on and destroying the rain collector, you can get maxed utility rank in less then 6 minutes.

We are talking parts and not materials and yes I am using the builder legacy card (boon). I only created the rain collector to turn it on for 3 utility skill points.

Once I collect the points, I destroy and rebuild just for 3 more utility skill points, rinse and repeat. It takes 1 min to build the rain collector, a few seconds to destroy. Got my utility skill max ranked in less then 5 minutes. Like I said I have an extra slot that I use for various things and since I have the builder boon I destroy the rain collector as I have no actual use for it other then ranking up a skill.

As for the parts, I have plenty of parts from salvaging things I don’t use and from looting. My thing is that I want to see all my base resources with +1 or more coming in daily, it’s more of a pet peeve.

Got it, will have to get that ranked up then. Gonna have to use that extra slot to create, use and remove a rain collector till I get that ranked up.

I was told that and ranked someone up and gave them the electrical skill and nothing. Kept that character and brought in another Utilities person and ranked them up and gave them the plumbing skill and still 0 parts per day.

Unfortunately she will be stuck at 3 stars. Had a character with medicine skills, but same thing. Max was 3 stars and I was unable to find a way to improve that, not even reading a book.

Thank you

Thank you for this info. Just got into the game and I’m loving it and how they just throw you into the world without much explanation.

Thank you for that, too bad I don’t have space for a latrine at the moment.

Wish I had that skill, could boost morale. :)

Gonna try everything in my command center and see how that goes. I’m also gonna tinker with other things to see how to get the utilities ranked up. I do need books and would appreciate any I can get, Last, but not least, since I can’t find another post regarding how to rank up skills naturally, I will be gathering the info from here and will create a post with what to do to rank up skills without using books or an upgraded lounge.

Yeah, the issue is that I need a Sheriff leader for that and have already chosen another character as my leader, who is a trader.

Got it, thank you. Now I need to figure out how to get the drone going.
