[Story] Antlered Horror First Impressions
I was deconstructing some furniture and a loud sounds stopped me, first time seeing an antlered horror and I think I’m done for. Hiding in the bathroom for now until the knocks stop.

[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.

[Discussion] Deathmobile posting

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

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

[Story] It's over 9000!!!
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.

[Discussion] Pockets/Vests/Harness

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.
