    Water and Food for a few Days then Done

    Unfortunately, Healing Factor uses food to replace HP. So if a player is struggling for food its a sub-optimal choice. There are animals everywhere (especially at night) Animal Tracking is not necessary. Living on basic food and drinks is easily managagable but not optimun. Scrounging for eggs...

    What kind of new quest types would you like to see added?

    I tend to think any attention to the quest system would be welcomed. Certainly I, and others have their preferences; but the game is currently flexible enough to meet most players preferences. A few more trader quest types would make lots of players happy. IMHO, the games quest system needs a...

    7 days cctv camera needs rework

    There is a wide selection of security cameras equipped with motion detection and tracking technology. Just saying... Could the in game assets better reflect that? Sure, but I can live with it the way it is.

    What kind of new quest types would you like to see added?

    That’s fair, and admittedly a poor choice of words on my part. However, an underlying assumption is that we’re limited to using resources already available in the game. Too often we keep thinking in terms of changing the deck chair color or rearranging the deck chairs when what’s really needed...

    What kind of new quest types would you like to see added?

    An underlying assumption of this perspective, is simply adding quests lines to the current Trader Quest Treadmill schema. The difference between a "retrieve the supplies" quest and a proposed "retrieve the resources" quest in the current trader centric model appears negligible. However, some...

    What kind of new quest types would you like to see added?

    That's a good point that I did not address (maybe outside scope of the OP question?) but certainly there needs to more "modes" of play and bigger chain quests. Sandbox mode, Story mode, the Rebirth Purge mode, escape to safe zone mode, need to be available in vanilla. Certainly, the basic...

    What kind of new quest types would you like to see added?

    Firstly, thanks @Pokketninja for taking the time to get feedback from the community. 1) A primary consideration would be disconnecting quests from traders and trader stage. The reliance on the trader and the trader monopoly on providing quests, does a disservice to the game. There are so many...

    Rad Remover Mod vs The Hunter Mod

    This thread is an exercise in pedantic opinion and perception, so fair play to you. ;-) Regardless, I find it easy to reconcile that either/or "entity affecting" decision tree (alive vs undead). IMHO, there should be two mutually exclusive mods one for use against "live" entities (including...

    Rad Remover Mod vs The Hunter Mod

    Notwithstanding, that this is video game logic and TFPs video game logic at that... I expect its intended behavior. IMHO, much like a player can not mount two weapon barrel mods (e.g. muzzle break or silencer) at the same time, TFPs chose to not allow a player to mount two "entity affecting"...

    How far have you gone this playthrough?

    Navesgane is a custom map included with the game, for whatever story TFPs come up with. It is not the "reference" map. RWG maps are played consistantly more often. Once a player plays Navesgane, they know it. IIRC, Navestgane cities and traders can feel further apart. This may affect the...

    How far have you gone this playthrough?

    Interesting. The whole point of the exercise is to to skew the RNG results in your favor. I don't think he got really lucky. I made it work with a couple extra hours (i.e. 27 hours on 60 minute days) with worse RNG. Having said that, Navesgane is so oddly configured (spread out) it may...

    Motion Sensor Logic Inversion

    I suspect the Gyro was another 60% prototype placeholder never to be polished and never to be revisited. There likely was a decision long ago that VTOL would make cheesing loot on the skyscrapers too easy, and hence it remains. It can be done with the gyro but its a much riskier endeavor...

    Motion Sensor Logic Inversion

    But a gyrocopter (gyroplane, autogyro) is a plane. It just has a freely-spinning rotating wing instead of a fixed wing. Forward propulsion is via the engine driven pusher propeller. Notwithstanding, that the 7d2d flight controls suck and there is no instrument feedback (altitude, aispeed...

    Motion Sensor Logic Inversion

    Jawoodle produced a video that showed an automatic base vehicle entrance in the desert using overhead doors. It was a complex way to do this. I did look for the video but never could hit the right keywords. It was (A19. A20, A21) I think. IIRC, the technique was to have the doors powered and...
