Hmm. I'm surprised there's no real woodworking in this game aside from construction. Plates and cups might be useless but I'll be damned if I can't enjoy a cup of morning tea in my cabin and eat my scrambled eggs off of a plate and not my hands!

Also, clay... I will have to take a look at the sand code. I will break this reliance on plastic for watertight containers!

So a wing mirror mounted in an... inexplicable place (right smack dab in the front) turns this APC from cumbersome to almost easy to drive.

I think I'll just pretend those are exterior cameras. Makes a lot more sense.

Exterior cameras.... hmmm...

? What do you mean by that?

Also apparently, when using my bow, I have permanent Recoil while the bow is wielded.

Maybe you're not strong enough to use it properly.

Go try to drive a regular apc around for a bit. Then mount a wing mirror front and center.

I... Shouldn't be, though. I have 12 STR and it's a short bow, and I'm up to 5 archery skill.

I'll give that a shot when I get home.

There's a bit of a bug re: rocks, I have three but I can't make a stone hammer or knife, "a rock" is browned-out. No other hammer tools. Used to be able to do it.

Also apparently, when using my bow, I have permanent Recoil while the bow is wielded.

There's apparently a minimum level of recoil of 150 without aiming. Recoil above 35 appears red.

Code: (player.h) [Select]
// The minimum level recoil will reach without aiming.
// Sets the floor for accuracy of a "snap" or "hip" shot.
#define MIN_RECOIL 150

When you press 'f' you can see all the options in the firing window.

Had already tried that. And with one equipped. And with many rocks, on the ground, in my inventory, and equipped.

Well my old character finally bought it after 120 days. APC got stuck between two triffid queen bullcrap instant tree groves. Then something managed to batter its way through the composite armored gas tanks while I was trying to clear a path with my zweihander.

Cue enormous screen-filling explosion.

Gravestone read: BUT CARS DON'T EXPLODE.

Wonder if my active defense field would have saved me. Or that heavy power armor sitting at my base... Also had an Uncanny Dodge CBM sitting in my APC waiting to get back to base to install, can you dodge explosions?

I think you're looking for Evasion.
