I can't say I've ever seen a crowbar.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

You can make one with pretty low skill.

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, rock and pipe, with like 1 or 2 mechanics.

I tried out my mutant hunting humans thing.  Spent an hour or so gathering up a huge portfolio of mutations, got shot in the face as soon as I tried to attack someone.  Considering the work you have to put into becoming a mutant, if that's the kind of stuff that's gonna happen I'll probably just hold off on that playstyle until stealth is more robust

Pretty much the last two pages have confirmed that everything goes after the player only.  Copbots don't go after zombies.

No, but they hit any creature that gets in their way while going after the PC. Instead of going around it, even. I think that may be related to the same pathfinding AI bump which causes friendly NPCs to stand next to you all "Get out of the way arsehole" instead of just sidestepping the PC even when there is space.

[GlyphGryph]

Does dodging help versus bullets? Might be worth dumping a bunch of points into that before starting a mutant run.

[Graknorke]

You mean Neo style bullet sidestepping and ducking and whatever? If that isn't a thing, it should totally be a thing.
Besides that, just wear as much amazing headgear as you can find. I don't think there's any penalty for head encumberment, so stack as many army helmets on as you like.

Very eager to play, just waiting for the awesome genius that is Deon to update his graphical pack!

[TempAcc]

There are penalties for eye encumbrance, not sure about head encumbrance though. It might lower your speed, not sure.

Head encumbrance doesn't give penalties, but it DOES limit headgear since it has a hard cap. And you're only allowed one hard piece of headgear as a completely separate bit of code.

edit: actually I am playing, but deon-tileset would be awesome

[Aqizzar]

Uh, is there a way to... turn off NPCs?  I really want to give them a chance, but every wandering NPC I find bugs out as soon as they get into conversation range.  They seem to be automatically turning hostile, because some of them immediately try to flee.

I always get this issue, and it gets incredibly annoying while I'm trying to drive towards them

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, there's still enough issues with NPCs that I'm not gonna bother playing until they're smoothed out a bit more.

Z-8 head a splodes all NPCs in a large area (possibly all of them period)

You have to ask the grandmaster Gremour (the guy who has made the vehicle mod) to update the source, I only made the tiles! Please read the credits .

I don't care how much of a mutant you are, if you punch someone holding a shotgun you are essentially hitting the Quit button.

NPCs are being worked on; I apologize for the issues.
