Deviant (DayZ) 43 Posted May 4, 2012 1. You find a flat, clear area. Use your scroll-wheel and you'll get an option to put it down.2. Tents can be looted by other players, but only on the server that you put it down. Your tent stays on the server it's placed in, so keep note of that. However, other players cannot "pick up" your tent. Only you can pick it up, but everyone can access it.3. Find matches. Again, find a flat, clear space to place it, and scroll wheel. Select "make fireplace", then "light fire" once it's placed.4. The only vehicles you will find in game, currently, AFAIK, are boats, civilian cars and pickups, light transport trucks (UAZ's, land rovers, etc. No Humvee's AFAIK), and transport helicopters.For land vehicles, 9 times out of 10 they are completely destroyed. They appear to be completely drivable, but without tires. When you jump in, you'll normally find everything to be damaged.For a standard car to function properly, you need engine parts, fuel tank parts, 4 tires (wise to keep one or two for spare, in case you break one), and scrap metal for the body, if it's damaged.You also need Jerry Cans to fill up the car. One jerry can fills about 1/5th of fuel. Pumps at gas stations don't work, but there are large tanks at gas stations that you need to siphon fuel from. Just have an empty jerry can and use your scroll wheel on the large tanks.[EDIT]Ninja'd, fuck :\ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
