Holy cow building a car from scratch takes a lot of this stuff. This is the first game i’ve ever tried to build a car. I’m scrounging every house for light disposable batteries to craft the rods. Fortunately most houses have at least one in a flashlight. Is there another good reliable source for welding rods or wire?

Something that might be fun to do on this sublemmy is do a collaborative Sky Islands run where a save file was shared and people took turns doing runs. I suppose it could all go on one post or posts could be made for each individual run or day. People could roleplay it in describing what happened on their run or just relay the...

Yesterday I switched mods on for the first time, and had to test each mod individually, none of them is capable of running on latest experimental, so I changed to stable gaiman, and after enabling all but one mod, it worked. But I’ve seen some relatively recent reddit posts that say mods can be enabled on experimental. Is...

What is everyone’s preferred general weapon loadout before getting the high end tech stuff ( i.e. Laser Weaponary, Bionic weapon, etc…)...

If you’re going in blind like me I recommend reconsidering reading this, I don’t really spoil anything all that much, but I wouldn’t have wanted to know about some of this stuff and prefer to just fuck around and find out....

I’m a little lost when it comes to the new armor stats found on experimental builds....

On experimental, I’ve a common cold that’s lasted over 2 weeks....

So recently I have come off experimenting with mutagens and took the boring, but resource intensive alpha mutation line to post-threshold with bionic character as a means to test how mutagens work....

The meteorologist asked for me to bring him radio controls, what are the items that he will accept for the mission? I’ve already tried talking to him with both a radio and a two-way radio in my inventory but he didn’t want either.

So after many failed attempts, and just outright going to last save automatically done - I present after 20 days the “Chimera” mutant idea that is illiterate… raised intelligence to 5 and used bombastic perks to raise it to 6 because low intellegence is painful to level stuff. No mutagens yet and looked up chimera traits...

Does it automatically prevent npc’s from taking items from the tile the container is located? Or do I have to activate it like door locks in order to lock it?

I’ve just failed to throw a grenade past my NPC friend while on the bycicle, twice it hit her/him turning it hostile and the last time the grenade exploded point blank and killed us both XD.

Are bandits universally evil? I just murderized and entire encampment of bandits by leading a group of mi-gos towards them first for the softening. And then promptly shot in the back a fleeing bandit. Could I have talked to them? I’ve never interacted with bandits before but are they more like scavengers than evil individuals...

Do items have maximum durability that goes lower and lower the more it gets damaged like vehicle parts? Or can I repair a piece of clothing forever with no drawbacks?

I think intelligence should matter more than it actually does… Why can we just dump the stat and still be able to hack computers, install cbm and create mutagen c’mon…

As a PSA, there is an official developer hosted Lemmy instance for CDDA. Making an account is developer only (alongside less reputable folks like moderators /s) to keep hosting costs somewhat sane, but anyone can visit/post/comment.

I found a place in a research lab, traversing it really hits home how FUBAR Earth is once things start to fall apart....

I’ve never run a mutated character before–usually if I do anything, I install stuff to become a cyborg....

I’m just curious what things are must-haves for you in a base....

Making a post to display general hints and tips, feel free to add...

I like the vehicle construction In CDDA, however I am somewhat poor at vehicle conceptualization....

So here I was doing a short sewer sweep near my base, killed some amalgamations, climb out to the suface to safetly dissect the spoils and something catches my eye while dissecting:...
