Food - no wiki
« on: September 07, 2015, 04:18:26 pm »

Hi,

There is no manual about food in adventure mode (just a little bit abut water) - so, how and where to get food?

In summer, you can use [g] on trees and plants to get edible bits. Also, look in chests and item piles, escpecially markets, food shops, and peasant homes.

I've been travelling for couple of days, I found a camp, but no animals. Do they live in any specific locations?

Nope, they don't live in specific locations. They live in the wilderness. And they'll generally fight back, but nothing to worry about, mostly.

There's a way to see the date ingame, although I don't quite remember the exact keys. But, once you figure out, here's DF's calendar.

[D] caps. I think. And just wander around the wilderness until you meet an animal. Not in fast travel. Or you can just kill and eat whoever's nearest, I used to do that.

Or you can try and become a vampire and never again have to worry about this petty things. Mostly.

Thanks for all the answers! I have manage to find, to win a fight, and later to eat a crab and tanned chicken I think.

One can stand on an adequate bush, and  pick up as much food as he wants.
