So in the latest build, either there's a "bug" where meds aren't being used up, or I somehow messed up installation. I'll have to check on other consumables.

Also, apparently if you stand near lava you can die from the heat without noticing till you're dead.

You should notice messages like "You feel your face getting warm" or whatever, unless you're already on the brink of heat death somehow.

Argh. I just lost my most successful character (yet) due to accidentally throwing a grenade against a chain-link fence. I suppose that I should take this as an important lesson. You can drive through cities headshotting zombies with your longbow like a badass, but one little grenade is enough to end it all. Bah.

Do longbows have a strength requirement of 10 or you can use them with less? Because my current character has 9 strength, and may replace his shirt bow with one

Apparently my face is blistering from the intense heat I've endured, wearing a dust mask and bandana in 77F weather.

As a Texan I have to say the PC in this game is a wuss.

I mean the temperature system is obviously a bit fuzzy, since I started getting 'Warm' at 55F, apparently just because it had turned from Spring to Summer.  But I feel like this is a little too punishing, even for Cataclysm.

Yeah temperature is something that really needs balancing. It is nice to have something else to also worry about in survival but right now the penalties of exceeding stable temperature make it very hard for the player. I would prefer it that low temperature increases hunger and high temperature increases thirst and only have stat penalties for the more extreme boundaries on temperature, of course this might still be very annoying for new players by having even more worrying about food but it provides a more reasonable way to alleviate temperature problems other then wear a blanket or be naked.

I had 8 strength and my longbow seemed to work just fine, though when it dropped to 4 I couldn't fire it anymore. If you can't use it at strength 9, then it must have been changed in your version.

Then I will craft a new bow. I thought that there was an actual requisite of stength.

Apparently they're good, I guess. I found one and thought it sounded really stupid so I burned it along with the rest of the spare clothing I'd found.

It dissects things, some might say too efficiently.

Yeah, science labs have gotten much, much larger in the last couple months.

   It has 100% coverage over you whole body. While that in and of itself doesn't make such things in real life great armor in the game with how it works they make you godly. As I have said before, I took a jabberwock in melee combat with only a wolf suit and a crowbar and won.
