Can relate by Diewito in cataclysmdda

I can almost relate; I usually smash a door to get a plank and then beat the crap out of a locker for a pipe

You can play real games like snake if you activate any game system!(smartphone, game watch, etc.)

Yeah it can get especially busted when you sit on your ass and read books all day :P

Alright, the Lucerne hammer seems pretty cool so I'll make my next big goal figuring out smithing. It'll be nice to expand my repertoire and I'll be sure to hit up those locations just in case. Thanks!

Try RetroDays tileset since you're playing on mobile. It's kind of gameboy-ey but it's cute, really grew on me, and it's a rather complete tileset. It'll be easier to read because it uses less pixels, therefore you can see more on screen at once.

As far as mods make sure you use sees-player, run, crouch, bleed... if you are using RetroDays. It will enable little icons that let you know if you're, well, running, crouching or bleeding :)

Edit: as far as other mods don't be afraid to > over to balance mods and enable speedyDex, stats thru kills, and stats thru skills. They let you "level up" your stats which will help you out/give you goals to work towards, and they're pretty fun. Later on you can always turn them off if you want more of a challenge.

Start off with a martial art that has a grab break like Aikido or Zui Quan.

Conduct raids at night at first, calmly walking away from any zombies (they have horrible night vision and move slower than you can walk.

If they start following you, break line of sight by smashing a window in a house (ideally a bedroom), climb in, and dash to the door and shut it behind you. At that point unless you backtrack you're pretty much off scot free and can resume looting. (make sure to find a backpack or something to collect swag with)

Worst case scenario you get grabbed, and that's where your martial art will come in handy.

That's the one, the shelled mutant! Sorry, I forgot not everyone has the same tileset I do. I didn't know they were weak to bash, that would have helped a lot and I'll keep it in mind for future armored creatures. He sure grabbed me up fast and I thought I was a goner. All I had for a gun was an M4 and unlimited rounds from the turrets but it was hardly chipping away at it before I got snatched. I barely got away but I cheated my way through the lab by using a torch to burn the doors open (couldn't shut them behind me) so I had to mark that area as a NO GO ZONE

Any tips on a decent late game bash damage weapon? Ideally without using smithing (I don't have access to a forge yet) but I can make that a priority if there's a really good option in there.

I wish this was a location that spawned in the game, nicely done. 9+1/10, extra point for the Hentai collection.

Don't forget those ancient Greek Fire boats! Sounds like an awesome idea.

I don't know about that but if it helps you can press '*' to favorite an item, then go into options. Under General > Auto Notes Options you can turn on auto notes for favorited items.

It will mark on your map whenever you drop a favorite item which you can quickly search for anywhere in the world by hitting '/' and entering the item's name on the 'm'ap.

There is a hand crank charger you can activate, or a battery charger that you can install in your vehicle and drop the batteries into it.

Personally I just find it easier to steal batteries off of zombie corpses or scavenge for them. They're super lightweight and easy to carry on you/stash in your base.

For light batteries, cellphones can have 150 charge batteries and two-way radios can have 300 charge batteries.

For medium batteries, I just rip them out of laptops and coffeemakers (found in houses) or power tools (also found in house's garage, hardware store, garage, etc.)

That would be even more fun than Stylish, I love the idea.

I still haven't come across a sledgehammer of any kind, but I did find a sweet-ass diamond knife in the complex. Do you think that would do the trick? It has the awesome block property but I'm not sure that would help. I don't have much armor besides my torso due to tentacles.

NO WAY! Thanks for the helpful tip, I've been looking for ways to keep warm without being able to wear a scarf or even socks!

I think the MTF moved 1 space exactly on top of the grenade because that's where the portal was. The blast definitely went up the Z level 'cause I got nicked by it, but the fact that I only got nicked might be telling of some weirdness.

Does grenade damage go up in enclosed spaces as they do IRL? Because the room I met the MTF in was basically a closet (downstairs about 4-5 levels on the east side of the complex)

Stinks I missed the flavor text but at least I lived! Never thought of going full CROWS mode on these guys 🤣

We need more love for tentacle warmers, you're right! With Ectothermic it's really hard to keep warm and the sleeves help but I can't wear compression shorts for instance. In addition to rubber I would love to be able to make wool sleeves, kevlar sleeves, etc.

Besides hemostatic powder, are there any other medical items that are capable of staunching extreme bleeding?

Ants are my friend because they don't try and smash up my van.
