Look for a computer anywhere. Also, if it is near the edge tunnel around into it. Else use explosives and damage the goodies.

What sort of basement? There are about twenty...

You could also use the teleporters, both the trap ones and the portable ones.

No terminal, just a tiny, tiny room.

Vehicle.
Explosives.
These fine gentlemen have the right idea.

Vibrators, explosives, and vehicles. An average day in post-apocalypse New England.

RE: pneumatic rifle: Ok yea, the accuracy on those things is also too high.  Frankly I'm mostly concerned with keeping the game technically stable, I don't have time to keep an eye on anything but the roughest idea of balance, that's why I listen when people tell me about stuff ;)

That's two actions, 1. make the rifle also reload one, 2, drop accuracy significantly.  I think it'll be reasonable-ish at that point, but still quite good.

Hmm, didn't someone mention sewer rat caves are treasure troves? Welp, just found one, empty save for 3 of the little bastards.

I used the pneumatic rifle and didn't notice anything over powering about it. It's weak compared to anything but .22 ratshot. it was taking three or four single shots at fairly close range to kill normal zombies, while a burst would generally kill one, that's about it. Definitely doesn't replace proper firearms.

If you want to balance it just make it take only bearings as ammo and add a crafting recipe for them, if they don't have one already.

Besides, whats the point of a single loading Assault Rifle? Its for assaults, single loading would make it pretty worthless for the job its named for.

I just feel like i should tell you all that you shouldn't try to cook food by starting a fire in a gas station. Explosions will result. If you want to survive don't do it anyway.

But it's ~FUUUUUN~

EDIT: I probably should have written it as '!!!FUN!!!'

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

'!!!FUN!!!'

I thought you had written it so, but the explosion warped, twisted, and melted it into the form I was reading.
