Just finished the entire ‘course work’. I️ have to say as a new player that this is helping immensely. Your presentation is so much better than most UA-camr personalities. Please keep them coming!
Just wanted to add a note. Recently, the knife spear, fork spear, and glass shiv were nerfed by being given the FRAGILE_MELEE tag. What this means is that those items are far more likely to become damaged if you use them. This shouldn't be too much of a problem if you pay attention (each one will usually last long enough to do what you need) but if you're not careful, they may break into their components, plus or minus a few. If you don't want to deal with this, you can mod that tag out of the game simply enough, or just use stone spears instead.
I was wondering what was going on. I'd never had weapons break so early in the game before! I like this addition -- it balances out how good that knife spear is.
Things have changed somewhat since this post. The knife spear has been renamed the "simple knife spear" and it can be upgraded to something that is less fragile if you have a drill of some sort.
Knife spear has gone through multiple changes since this video was created. Current wisdom is to use a Wooden Spear instead as the forked spear has the 'fragile' tag and will break quickly.
I have not been having good lucky with my playthrough attempts... I started a survior game in an evac shelter.. and when I left the shelter.. and a giant wasp came out of the woods right beside said shelter.. and killed me.
I recently started a wandering spawns world and I was surprised at how zombie free my area was. Turns out that one giant wasp soloed everything that moved in its fov, including any critter. They are indeed terrifying
Thank you very much ! Your tutorials are very helpful :) In the beginning the game can be a pain in the ass and seem boring, but when you actually become a bit comfortable with it it's huge fun ! I love these simple but very complex games. Much more fun and creative than "modern" games, which are all about cheesy graphics with no real depth. Do you play Dwarf Fortress? I could imagine that this is also a game of your taste.
Yeah, lockpicking underwent some big updates not too long ago. I pretty much ignore it entirely myself. there is rarely a situation lockpicks solve that don't have much simpler and faster alternative methods. plus there is almost never any loot worth making the attempt in locked safes. if you do want to lockpick prior to being able to make them, keep an eye out for hairpins when you are looting houses/corpses. most of them also have lockpicking 3 quality.
What you are able to drag is based on your Strength attribute. I don't remember trying to drag an oven when i had high strength but i have dragged wood stoves around.
You don't. That build won't let you, it only takes rocks. Experimental allows use of marbles/pebbles so 0.G stable (whenever that arrives) will allow it also.
I know it's 2 years late but I wanna ask you what soundpack are you using. I got the same ambient music as you do, but got a pretty annoying heartbeat sound when low on stamina instead of the accelerated breathing that you have
So i saw on your map that the town had a name, Union? Is that in the base game or a mod? If its a mod I'd REALLY want it as it gives more depth/lore to your story when you die . :P
Its' in the base game (assuming you are playing the latest experimental branch release). You just have to uncover the 'center' point of the town to see the nameplate info.
heh, i assume you mean just the University playlist. The tutorial series is now over 100 episodes...that one would take a bit of time. Hopefully you enjoy all the new content that will be hitting the channel.
Yeah just the University one lol. Probably gonna watch all of the 100 episodes over a couple weeks due to moving and having NOTHING to do but watch youtube.
Most of the episodes i have posted use the Chesthole32 tileset. My livestream series that is most recent is using the Mxotto+ tileset as it has more of the PK's mod graphics included. Those are the only two i have used in my uploaded videos so far.
Chesthole32 is on the graphics menu by default (i'm assuming you are also using the launcher). You should not need to d/l anything for it. Mxotto+ does need to be d/l and manually installed in order to use.

With your tutorials (as well as other play throughs) I just escaped my first lab . Thank you!
Gratz! 👍
Knife spear can no longer be made with a 2X4. Gotta find a long stick by whacking down a young tree
fooking quality

If you can find some rebar and sharpen it I believe they are sturdier.

Pot IS wonderful.
another item to craft should be a makeshift sling, for an early game bagpack, made with 1 sheet (from windoes)
As of 0.E the recipe for a knife spear has been changed. Now you'll have to make forked spear - requires basically the same stuff plus 2 extra spikes.

Wasps are terrifying

I got 2 immobile Riot units beside the evac shelter...no wonder zombies were dying left and right.

they must have updated things. I need bolt turnng or fine hammering to build lockpicks. I guess i have to luck out finding some other tools in town

I wonder if you could drag an oven out of a house into your shelter? I'll try this sometime.

How do i make a sling use pebbles /marbles??? It will only allow me to fire rocks in Frank build.
You don't. That build won't let you, it only takes rocks. Experimental allows use of marbles/pebbles so 0.G stable (whenever that arrives) will allow it also.

Hmm...i can't be sure but i think i was using RRF Sounds back then. Nowadays i use @'s soundpack with the music only from Co.Ag added in

Awesome! Almost finished the whole playlist now and I also subscribed to you as I like how you talk about things!

I am still adding courses to the University playlist. I try to add 3 or so a week.
What tileset do you use?

Vormithrax thanks i downloaded straight from the website so i dont see either of those and im not to fond of the ones it comes with

Heh, and Course #20 is planned to be one talking about....Tilesets!
I am now lol and good youve helped me survive more than a day at a time btw thanks a lot. Hope your channel does as well as i think it will
