BTW, it just bugged out on me and said rats attacking me destroyed clothes I didn't have. I apparently lost a labcoat and a tank top. Also, I apparently killed a Shrieker zombie AND a regular zombie, but I only killed a regular garden-zombie that I found in the bathroom.

Wait so the zombies are from
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
But, do you have plans for playing as zombies?

EDIT: ^ Agreed. I wanna be rewarded for being drunk, high, and a Schizo all at the same time.
EDIT2: Also, sewer rats are overpowered. 4 of them vs. me with a 2x4 ended in a victory for them.
EDIT3: ^also, you don't get sober with vodka, you get very, very, drunk.

Seems like you forgot to add my guide :P. But it seems like no one needs a double-click launcher anyway, everyone wants to type in the terminal, nerds we all are aren't we?

Do the components used to make an item affect its properties?  If I use 00 shot in a grenade will that be different from using gasoline in it?

Ever considered a perk system? I know, I know. It's not like you actually 'level up' here,
but more like achievements system. you get sober with vodka and kill zombies with ak.
and you get a perk named 'In Soviet Russia...'
something like this.
You do kind of level up through morale I believe, and I'd be all for being able to pick a new trait after certain 'level' milestones, but I'm not too keen on achievement-style perks to be honest.

Okay, lost a character due to a crash, but I found a great way to make a character. Get drunken master, schizophrenic, and near sighted (Or any other -2 perk), get 6 points in unarmed, get drunk, and have a blast.

Having great fun! Not doing too well, though. I tried the whole 'camp out in the woods away from zombies' thing, and the forest is as bad as the freakin' city!
Anyway, I think I'm doing something wrong... Is there a way to build without carrying all the materials? The 2x4 boards I gathered were too damn heavy to carry along with a hammer, and this was a decently strong character.
Even AFTER I removed my clothes! :P

well I assume you can carry those with your hands, as it would be absurd to put it in your jeans pocket.

https://github.com/downloads/headswe/Cataclysm/Cataclysm_win_SDL_1.3.2.zip

New version includes all latest commits.
I bet that's incompatible. Noooooooo I finished my multi-hour stashing of 10+ gunstore guns and ammo and multiple army/scientist groups just a few hours ago. It was beautifully loaded with so many bullets, biotics, flashlights, guns, and food. D:

Oh well. I'll update when my character dies I guess.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

You get a shovel then use it (a) and then select where you want to dig the hole.

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.
Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

I just stash them in a house. It seems to do alright.

Edit: Of course, now it's getting swarmed. Heh.

I had a closer look at wikia itself. Aparently the reason the http://cataclysm.wikia.com/ is still around 4 years after its inital creation is that wikia never deletes a created wiki, as it keeps the page score up and hence advertising money coming in. For this reason, namly that it might keep information it dont own as its own I think another wiki site should be used.

or we can accept their way and basically take over the http://cataclysm.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page wiki for our own use. Someone can apply for admin and then it would be ours.

Katana... is deadly. Very overpowered.
well it get's stuck ted often but what's the point, I just one hit kill everything.
Just remember to grind unarmed in case you meet something you cannot one hit,
otherwise there's a high chance it'd get stuck in.

I just had an error with the windows version (not the latest, but second latest) while reading in bed. Thankfully, it has some text:

*NPC name* chose action Follow player.
*NPC name*: Target = -1, danger = 0
address_needs Undecided
address_player Follow player
