I'm barricaded in a billiards room in a mansion with the entirety of the first library I found on me. Readin causes my game to go all not respondy for like 10 seconds, so I am cheating.

That's just the simulation of the time passing while you read.

Well I want to make it stop... Also, I think some zombies broke in earlier. I heard glass breaking and one whack.

Started a few screens from science labs with card reader, Where to find?
My guy cant hit a barn from the inside when throwing.
found a crossbow = slow as death, mine
Eat mutagen? sure why not eat really odd stuff with warning on it, I can see 4 squares in the dark.
Find a backpack, yea carry loads of stuff, "you are insanly encumbered with this one backpack on you" = boo!
Am I using it right, stuff auto gos in backpack or does it matter.
so many bear traps protecting a piece of bubble wrap!

Lab cards can be found on dead scientists, which spawn randomly in groups. Already dead and on the ground, that is.

Yeah, all inventory is lumped together. There's no way or need to divide it up.

Backpacks let you carry more, but you still get encumbered by the weight.

When I'm using a backpack and still want to be half competent at melee I usually take my shirt off wearing only the backpack.  That drops the encumbrance down to 3, which isn't quite as severe, and a t-shirt doesn't offer much protection anyway.  It would probably be more problematic when cold matters though.

if you want me to improve the mental image of that for you... picture a dying survivor sitting in the middle of that trap field clutching the bubble wrap to his chest and rocking back and forth.

So recently, I was gladdened by the tons of new updates and the addition of the vehicle mod to the main game (Ayup, I'm that slow.  )

But one thing perplexes me...

Why can't my character scoop up any liquid in a bottle that had fallen on the floor? Not the natural puddles, but after throwing water on the ground, it is impossible to pick it up again. Same goes for milk and gasoline.

Try doing this yourself. Then you will see why it's impossible.

this basically.

But what about your trenchcoat, and your kevlar vest, and the second backpack you're carrying?

[Tiruin]

 

Now that I re-read what I've said...yeah, good point.

But in multiple amounts? Is there a hidden liquid level somewhere, or is the ability to get fluids a tile flag thing?

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Nope, it just turns into an item on the ground. For extra fun, try pouring a bottle of water onto an open door. Congratulations, you can now never close that door again.

[Girlinhat]

I think it's been fixed now, but it was before that you could pour liquids onto liquid tiles.  Back in ye olden days, there were two types of water.  One was 50 thirst, and the other was 40 thirst and causes food poisoning.  I'd take my bottles to the river and fill them all up.  Then pour out the 40 thirst ones and refill them, until I had only pure water.  This would result in a large pile of "water" all sitting on a river's shore.  It was funny how you could have 15 puddles of water in the same tile, and how all of these puddles were actually in the middle of a river.
