I haven't tried any mods, but I will check them all out.

Maybe toilets should have a "use" option, which it wouldn't be required but using it every now and them could give a small morale boost. The boost should be usable like once a day to prevent abuse. With that there could also be a negative trait, irritable bowels. A toilet must be used at least once a day to prevent minor pain and morale drops. Just throwing my toilet ideas out there.

The Day of the Triffids was perhaps the first great post-apocalyptic novel.  I highly recommend it.  I also recommend the 1962 movie of the same name, which is a mixture of awesome under-siege-by-monsters action, and unintentionally hilarious scenes of blind people getting hit by trains and walking into walls.

The13thRonin has his mod, which basically does what you said. You will NOT want to fight his zombies.

Is there a way to tell if a house has a basement short of going inside and looking for stairs?

No.  1 in 50 houses generated contains a basement.


Maybe toilets should have a "use" option, which it wouldn't be required but using it every now and them could give a small morale boost. The boost should be usable like once a day to prevent abuse. With that there could also be a negative trait, irritable bowels. A toilet must be used at least once a day to prevent minor pain and morale drops. Just throwing my toilet ideas out there.

I considered it (and requiring urination as well), but then decided that it was too Sims-y.  Also, I don't want to become known as "that roguelike where you poop."

New update.
Note: This update breaks save compatibility, and requires a clean build.

Features:
  • Most of Deon's Little Mod merged.  It's easier to list the parts I omitted; see below.
  • Morale gain nerfed considerably.
  • The "Morale" help topic is now "Morale and XP".
  • Paper walls and toilets more easily smashed, especially important for zombies and other monsters.
  • Copbot noises vary depending on whether or not they can see you.
  • Rain reduces your scent trail.


Bug fixes:
  • Acid drizzle and acid rain now cause the same wetness symptoms as drizze and rain, respectively.
  • Wax floors in beehives are considered to be "indoors" and protect you from rain.
  • The illiterate can no longer use computer terminals.
  • Fixed some unloading crashes.
  • Spears list their damage as "piercing" and not "cutting."
  • Bug wherein NPC settlement building were more likely to face north fixed.


Changes and omissions from Deon's Little Mod:
  • Flour, sugar and salt are found in cardboard boxes.  Broth and soup are found in food tins, not soda cans.
  • New juice types omitted.
  • Playground and basketball court merged into a single tile, "park."  I'll include the option for a generic trees,-plaza-and-benches park soon.
  • Some crafting tweaks.
  • Some tweaks to food properties.
  • New armor types omitted; I will be including a armor mod system, similar to the gun mod system, rather soon, and most of his additions will be made redundant.
  • Weapon mods omitted.  I will be adding various scopes soon, which will work differently than the scopes presented here.
  • Badlands omitted.
  • Probably some other stuff I've forgotten to mention...

Okay, once the windows version appears, I will add back variety of "parks" in form of playgrounds and basketball courts :P. Thanks for leaving something for my mod.

And of course I will add fire stations, warehouses and motels.

Try 'w'ielding instead of 'W'earing. You might have had Caps Lock on by accident, which reversed them.

Playing the latest Windows version, and I'm seeing survivors' names appearing on the map, similar to notes, in a normal town. I'm not seeing any NPCs, though.

Well, this is probably a bug. I found a missile silo, and went down the ladders. It dumped me into the rift with no way out and I can't move. So I'm trapped.

Already baked some bread and happened to spawn right next to a forest in this new world, so zombies won't bother me unless I go deeper into the city. I will attempt to trap rodents for food and try to survive for long. The new version seems sweet so far.

Oh, Whales, one thing I forgot to mention in my previous post, will you echo items gotten from containers such as shelves? So far they are silent unlike picking from the floor, so you always need to open the inventory to check their inventory slot letter.

Press m, and see if you can find a basement to teleport to. Otherwise, press z then m, and look for a basement or similar.
