havent used any explosive bolts, but pipe bombs were pretty useless. didnt seem to cause any signifcant damage, but does seem to knock some zeds down. seem more effective as a perimeter alarm(mines) or flashbang (pipe bombs and exploding bolts) than actually killing anything. there is a perk...

i think the SI of electrical parts has changed, not the hatches. it sounds like relays and generators no longer support blocks above them, not sure if this is a feature or a bug. you just need to add a block to give the hatch something to support it from the side: plates and siding are the...

did it dye just the dot or the dot and backlighting?

personally i cant use the sight because of the red glass that the red dot is shown on. the whole point of red dot sights and reflex sights is quick target acquisition from a large and clear sight picture. red dot on red tinted glass is clear as mud, if you add any color to the glass it should...

burnt biome rains a lot because its always overcast, rain falls when the amount of overcast is over a certain %. ive had it rain for weeks straight while living in the burnt biome, but you can alter the weather through console commands if you want. dont remember the commands, but im sure you...

i havent had much luck with coal either. just getting to the point where i need to start producing a lot of ammo, so i havent done much prospecting yet. i will say that every coal deposit i have found is pretty small, and mostly found by accident rather than intent. when i try to look for...

we need this in the game, perhaps the next tier in trader quests

im pretty sure critical hits are limited to popping off heads and limbs, and i know you only get head explosions at lvl 3+ of cracking skulls. so it doesnt do any extra damage, the bonus is either instakill or disable.

if you want to have bigger hordes early game, but dont want to mess with mods, just restart. if you restart before dawn the horde resets

i never have a problem with just a hatch and ladder, they wont even climb the ladder unless the hatch is open.

i think wasteland has the best chance for nitrate, but you can find it any biome. its really luck of the draw. but look for boulders on the surface, then dig up some of the gravel near them (it pokes thru in little patches). if you get nitrate and iron when you break the gravel blocks you are...

you could use the rations(white cans; lamb, beef, chicken) as taco fillers, or mixed with canned soup to get stew, or to make meatloaf. tuna salad/sandwhiches from can tuna or cat food, pasta can could be the base of many italian style dishes(maybe add tomatoes or cans of marinara sauce). you...

type 'cm' into console to enter creative mode and exit console, push u to bring up creative menu. search for motor bike. if you want to match quality, just refresh search until you get a match in quality. drag to your inventory then turn off creative mode

i think he's complaining about crafting times going wonky when you get out of range of your base. its very annoying when you are doing mass production of cement or steel. you cant just cancel and restart to rest the times, because there wont be room in the forge for all the materials after...
