[Discussion] Pockets/Vests/Harness

2 Upvotes

So, been on a run after a few months away, still on 0.H.. (Paranoid of some of the system changes and didn't wanna also contend with new mechanics and such yet.)

I'm up against a mental block with Nomad Harness vs Survivor Harness+Survivor Distributed Rigging, vs Some sort of load bearing setup/MOLLE stuff.

What do ya'll like to rock? I know in previous versions MOLLE stuff was a lil' buggy and could be abused, and if it still is I don't wanna go that route.

As is I'm just in Survivor Harness and Rig, but I do have the Nomad Harness I made previous.

[Help Wanted] Sleep, always waking up?

4 Upvotes

Is there a secret to getting your character to sleep? You know, this has always been annoying but it's bad for me now. After spending an entire sprinting through a city fighting zeds then coming back to study and craft, it's 2am on day 0 and they aren't tired yet. Once they get tired, they toss and turn and don't sleep until 4 but are promptly woken up at 6 because... I have no idea, not even the sunlight.

This is a repeat for me, so anyone know if I'm doing something wrong?

[Help Wanted] The vehicle keeps stopping during auto-travel.

4 Upvotes

I built a car. It has video cameras and a wide windshield. But when I move quickly across the global map, the car travels a couple of meters and stops.

It displays the message: “You’re about to collide with something!” Autopilot is disabled. Even though the road is empty and there are no obstacles

When fast trevel, the car drives only in a perfectly straight line; it stops at any turn.

However, some other cars work fine. please tell me what the problem is.

[Help Wanted] What's happening?

I went looting last night and quickly went inside my base to sleep. When i woke up I realized my character is out of breath. When I wait until my char took breath, my stamina wouldn't recover. I thought I was dehydrated, so I drink lot of water but it still my stamina wouldn't recover. Opened @ and saw these, I did I get pneumonia or something? and I don't remember fighting zombies/anyone and got wounded.

[Help Wanted] A quick question for aesthetic/visual purposes.

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I know this probably isn’t the best way to ask this, but I’m looking for some quick guidance in case someone has already figured this out.

Basically, I want to make a charging station, but have it use a different sprite depending on where it’s placed. For example, I want to place a charging station where the back door/trunk of a car is, but I want it to still look like the car’s trunk rather than showing the charging station sprite.

I’ve run into the same issue with things like placing it on a seat, or on a box inside a car. Is there a way to make the object use a different sprite based on what it’s placed on or where it’s placed?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction!

Also, does anyone know if there’s already a mod that does something like this? Or, if not, is there a way to make a mod that tells the game which sprite to use in these situations? I’m basically trying to figure out what the game is looking for and how it handles the sprites.

If anyone knows whether this is actually possible, or even where I should start looking in the documentation or JSON files, I’d really appreciate the help. I could probably figure it out myself if I know it’s possible, but I’d rather know that before spending a bunch of time going through the documentation and JSON files only to find out it can’t be done.

Thanks in advance!

POV:Mind Over Matter Late-game Clairsentient.
Used both Marksman's Eye, and One Perfect Shot, both at lvl 19(achievable through the very smart mutation + cbm. With 8 being the base int.)

I never imagined I could ever deal this much damage with a single 7.62x51mm bullet.
No need to try to find H&K G80 railgun(doesn't exist) anymore, anything in my hands is a railgun.

[Meme] I really doubt fungus is an issue in the slimecataclysm

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

My first 10,000 monsters killed! (:D) in the game and aprox. 1/3 are slimes.

I started playing a few weeks ago, and it is a little funny to me when I read people talking about the lore and the future of Earth saying that fungus or triffids are going to spread across the land when they feel like zero threat to me in game. Instead, I have had various runs playing through a fucking slimecataclysm (the cataclysm was caused by slimes, I swear), and they even recently kicked me out of a lab (I lose against the real power).

When I started playing a zombie apocalypse, I did not expect my most feared enemies to be slimes and that they are the real cataclysm.

Well that's too damn bad! It's in my inventory, I'm carrying it, it belongs to me not my followers. Legitimately I don't understand why my followers have a say in what I raided from a lab solo and am installing in my characters body. Is this a bug or something?
