Rince Wind, that doesn't help. Sure it lets you know what food won't help you, but you need to know you need to do that, so new players won't know to do that. :v

Plus, like I said, as a human being I know for the most part when I've been eating poorly, just based on how I'm feeling. Cataclysm survivor should also have that ability.

More 'wake up' messages?  Maybe an infrequently triggering 'your tummy gargles' or 'your love handles feel heavy'?

I like the semi-vague Nutrition or Healthiness label myself.

I was looking for advice for the game, though :v

Don't die, unless that is your goal.

[pisskop]

-Take a melee centric character.  Especially with the acid nerf.  Its not the best, or an OP way, just less fun with numbers and micromanagement.
-Its worth taking a few points in melee if you want combat to be easier
-Dont dump all your point into a scenerio or profession.  Better to take a character with solid melee capibilites than a cuborg ninja who is power-starved.  Also consider what season you start in, and make sure he can be appropriately clothed.
-Get a car.  Getting a working car will prolong your life by quite a bit.
-Find something you want and study and focus on it.  If you want manhacks study up electornics to get them as soon as feasible.  If you want a pimped out mobile base study mechnaics.
-Read the wiki.  Even outdated, it can serve as a general guide.  Much of it is accurate enough to learn from anyway.
-Dont rush off into battle unprepared.  Run away before you get overwhelmed.

Its a sandbox game.  Meaning there will always be more chances.  And that failure is the best teacher.

And if you must die, die spectacularly.

^This. Mininukes are your friend. An assholish friend, but still a friend.

We all have one asshole friend we simply cannot live without as he teach us life lesson by being an asshole....

"Asshole friend hands you a mininuke (active)"

Now that magazines are a thing, are revolvers going to get speedloaders?

[Sheb]

How do magazines work? I started as an army recruit, so with 30 rounds of .223, a STANAG magazine and a M4. I can (r)eload the rifle with the emplty magazine, but it doesn't let me put ammo in afterward. I can (r)eload the STANAG and get a STANAG (30), but then it says I'm "out of ammo" when I try to reload the M4.

[Orange Wizard]

Is the STANAG compatible with the M4? You need to find a compatible magazine (or make a makeshift one).

Update your experimental build. This is a known issue that I'm pretty sure has been fixed. The proper procedure is to reload the magazine, then reload the firearm with the magazine (as you would logically expect).

[Sheb]

Yeah, STANAG is compatible. And I'm pretty sure that's the latest experimental (or was yesterday evening). I'll try to update again tonight and see what happens.
