I think it is, but I would have to run a new game and I'm in the middle of an excellent one at the moment. Basically, Recycling Suit + Photo skin + 1/6 thirst should equal unlimited game time. Not 100% positive on that though. Its not an issue though. If the world map is 85 x 30, with 9 squares each. Add in lairs and caves that can extend up to 20 tiles down, and you get a MASSIVE number of map screens that would be nearly impossible to clear out, even if you just removed the food and water clocks.

[Niveras]

Hmm. Speaking of food and thirst, does Fasting Way/Mind over Body also reduce the frequency in which you need to recharge with Photosynthesis? Or douse yourself with the Amphibious defect?

[Kishmond]

Okay, someone needs to fix hordes of apes appearing outside of the first cave. That's just not a cool thing to throw at a level 1. There are also occasionally slugsnouts in there.

[beorn080]

The apes are NOT that hard if you have even a borderlands revolver.

Edit: Is it a bug that you can't pour out flamethrowers? I kinda wanted to get a dram or two of oil to play with from the flamethrower I purchased, but the pour menu for it doesn't work.

[Kishmond]

I guess I just had a stroke of bad luck with the apes. The character I've been playing for the past hour is one of the my best ever. He just seems to find everything he needs. 

Are two handed guns like shotguns and chainguns affected by Bows & Rifles skills?

[beorn080]

I think all two handers are effected by rifle skills, unless they are specifically noted as being heavy weapons. Personally, I think Akimbo is better then all the skills in rifles put together, but that's just my opinion from a game with two purchased plastic armors that got converted into a pair of overcharged laser pistols. Though, if you get aiming down, Rifles would be amazing against single targets.

Edit: Is there any way to force Fugue clones to use guns over melee? Just tinkered up a flame thrower and want my three clones to unleash firey death upon my foes.

Wasn't there a way to 'dig down' at any point on the map as well to generate more underground area? And can't you dig 'off map' from the lairs and caves to find randomly generated areas?

[beorn080]

You can't dig down, yet, but you can set up a debug key that lets you go down or up levels without stairs. And yes, you can dig across anywhere and find more caves and such, but its quite rare, though possible. For instance, I used disintegrate in Golgantha about 4 floors down, and it opened up a new cave to the south of it. Also, if you haven't gone to Golgantha, get a strong character, BACK UP THE SAVE, and head there. Its quite fun but horrifically unbalanced.

[Kishmond]

Yeah it took a level 18 character with 150+ health and immunity to electricity to get through Golgotha. At least I got a nice gun out of it.

[beorn080]

The electricity one is by far the easiest route there. I just ran my horribly overpowered character down through it, and didn't get hit once. Just takes timing. Now, if you land in the chute crab route, or the acid route, your screwed. Even with a phase cannon, the one time I tried that I couldn't kill them fast enough to keep from being surrounded.

*The old autoinjectors have been replaced with a variety of tonics. Applying more than one tonic effect at the same time will risk an overdose, with negative effects, so choose carefully. True men generally gain more benefit from various tonics, and mutants are typically more vulnerable to negative side-effects.

Oh heck yes.

*Fixed phase cannon's charge use

Goodbye Autowin super weapon of doom. Though, I shan't update till that character bites it. One shotting Slumberlings is too much fun.

Ew. Started a new game and walked in on Argyve and the zealot getting it on. Not something I want to imagine given his description.

Edit: And then the zealot died a couple turns afterward. WTF?
