Tried both xterm and rxvt and got nothing once again. I've only built it once, so my tree isn't what's broken either. I tried using a binary compiled two days ago (from this page), and I get the same results.

Well, since you are on Gentoo, it can be virtually anything. Maybe you can try a sandboxed chroot or a virtual machine...

Is rope any good? Can I use it to descend into my own pits? if so, how?
You can't, but it may well pay off to carry a rope around with you anyway

Meh, I've never had any issues like this in the past. I guess I'll just play on one of the ttys.

Considering how rope seems to have 30 weight, I don't think many people will be carrying rope very far. Damn near fills up my inventory alone.

Fine then, if you fall in a sinkhole and have a rope then you can throw it and not sink.

I didn't even know there are sinkholes in the game. o_O

Some dumbass truck driver just took the corner of his trailer off by ramming/scraping it across a tree in front of my agency, some Portuguese guy is now screaming at him as if he's the Mayor or a cop, even though I don't believe he's even a local business owner. I wouldn't be surprised if the driver knocks him out.


Oh, domestic disputes; what saddening displays of human disaffection.

I've been playing this game for a bit, loving it, and It would be awesome if we could all post entries of our characters, like a mini lets play. 

Also, how do you find mutagenic substances?  I've got a strong genetic base, I wanna turn into a TMNT.

I think my bear swarm may have spawned from 4 different directions and came at me due to the alarm going off, had one bear coming from each of North, East, South, and West. I shot the spitter zombie, then shot the bear coming from the east, then started getting mauled by the ones from south and west - and the one from the north came around the corner as I ineffectually shot one of the two mauling me. There were a bunch of other things too. Eyebots, regular zombies, a few other letters I didn't even take time to check. Those bears didn't take long to kill me. I might have had a better chance running back into the police station, but I slowed due to the acid and thought my SMG could take care of them. Full clip of it didn't do a whole lot though, haha.

Losing is fun though. Learning that my epic death by bears was a rare occurance makes it even more funny.

I had another entertaining death. I started in a house with another science lab basement, found a mutagen, drank it, gained schizophrenia. Drank the purifier, but didn't lose it. Then I walked outside and got swarmed by giant wasps apparently emerging from the next house over. I thought it might be a hallucination since I hadn't even seen giant wasps before, but they killed me real enough :)

I started a third brand new crippled character, and now I'm off to an even better start. I picked up a backpack in the house I spawned in, found another glass bottle of purifier and mutagen across the street in a basement, and drank them both - got rid of all my negatives and gained light eater. Next house over had a basement full of weapons and guns and ammo; so I'm packing a combat knife, a rifle, and an SMG - as well as a few stacks of ammo for both guns and a couple molotovs. I think I'm near the same police station my other guy died at, im tempted to go over and see if I can get revenge. Wouldn't mind reclaiming the mp3 player :D
