Gungula

Looks like netting is spawning again, on 1PP at least. Got it safely to camp, even found a tent along the way in the quonset at NWAF, then was running back in my skivvies and met a nice man who killed me for waving at him.

I have a heartworming story for those griping about KOS in experimental, just happened about an hour ago. It's nighttime on a 1PP server, I approached the loot barracks at the southeast corner of NWAF, as I came in from the fence I see a guy hurrying north away from me and he ran past a dead guy standing next to the hangar. I checked the barracks, then the dead guy's ruined pack and found a lantern with fuel can attached. I peeked around the hangar, didn't see anyone so I run back to the barracks, set the lantern down and turn it on and then book out of the airfield. Suddenly gunshots behind me, two people shooting different guns, I think maybe they're fighting each other, so I hide until the shooting stops and swing wide around the south end to check the other barracks there. Same deal, a dead guy standing outside the already-looted barracks, so I light up a torch I was carrying and set it between the buildings and run away. I made the fence and started running west across a field, suddenly gunshots behind me, again, except this time they're aimed at me. I start weaving, running up a hill with no cover, the sun is dawning and I'm wearing a snow-white jacket with a bright orange boonie hat, and the treeline is 200 yards away. Bullets are hitting all around me, that guy must've shot a mag and a half out of his ak, but didn't hit me once. A couple hills later I find a heli crash, inside was a smoke grenade but not much else, so I lit it and dropped it right there inside the heli. I crawled out, ran to a nearby shed and logged out smiling. That was probably the most fun I've had in this game yet. On another subject, anyone finding netting anywhere? I've made a couple trips along the coast, and the dynamic boat crashes only have hats or the occasional jacket.

Gunga-what?

I had to eat every steak from two goats to get from yellow hungry to bright green energized. There was a server reset 3/4 of the way through the goat, so when I got back on I had two steaks left. They had changed color back to the raw pink, but were still a bit warm from cooking. I ate them that way for science and did not get sick. My beans to the guy a few pages back who taught me how to use a campfire. I'd been putting the fuel in the fire's inventory, then building a new one when it died. You get like 1.2 steaks cooked that way per fire. If you're fast.

Found a weapon I've never seen before, Flanged Mace. I died before I got to hit anything with it though. I thought it would be fun to walk along a high ledge at the Devil's Castle. B) On an empty server. B) B) I've found logging out with something in your hands gets the item stuck in your hands when you log back in. Happened to me with an FNX and a jerry can. At first the FNX had lost all its attachments, a server change fixed that but it was still stuck in my hands. I right-clicked + drank a soda out of my inventory and it fixed the stuck item, both times. The jerry can went on the ground and the gun went back into the bag it came from. I think any usable-from-inventory item might work for this, things like rags, vitamins, your precious leather sewing kit...

I found one at a floating police car loot spawn, very early on in .56, but died before I could get a battery into it.

No prob BC, those trucks have killed me more than anything else. Vehicles get you into all kinds of trouble. :^)

You can shoot one bullet into the truck to engage the physics. If you have a bullet. I haven't risked a melee yet to see if it works for this. You'll see the vehicle drop, or fly into the air or whatever would have happened, and it's safe to use after that.
