    1) In multiplayer, you can harvest multiple skins from Cave Dwellers/Fingers/etc, if all players use the "cut skin" action at the same time. This also applies for getting skin from deer. If only one player skins the creature/animal, after the animation finishes, nobody else can harvest it.
    2) You can place a GPS tracker on Virginia, once you have high enough affinity with her. This also lands you an achievement.
    3) If you're able to get to the 3D printer cave early game and print a red mask, when the first wave of scout cannibals come to your newly established base, wear the mask to shoo them off. They won't attack. It does however disrupt Kelvin from his log hauling duties, as he will stop and point.
    4) Set your base up next to a wide river with white water, where fish do not naturally spawn. From your base, tell Kelvin to "get fish" and "drop here" (at your base). Kelvin should then catch a fish (in the wide river that doesn't spawn fish) and be unable to pathfind back to your base. He will then immediately drop the fish in the river and continue fishing, then drop the fish, and fish again, rinse and repeat. Every day, check downstream (or build a dam) and you'll have 30+ fish waiting.
    5) The zipline can be used to transport logs. Both ways, up and down. Very useful.
    6) To avoid Kelvin and Virginia from running into walls, use a full log vertically cut, to create a step, up into your base. This should help their pathfinding. Not 100% proof though.
    7) Plant a stick in the ground, then place another stick adjacent to it (following the guideline it prompts you with). This should give a meter gap between them. Use your axe to cut the sticks into stakes (spikes). Now place a vertical stick between the two stakes and another adjacent to it (following the guideline), you should now have 4 stakes with half meter gaps. Rinse and repeat this step as many times as you like to create an impentrable line of spikes that the enemy cannot breach. Amazing for protecting walls.
    8) Sharks can be distracted from attacking you if you throw cannibal limbs into the water they are in
    9) If you want to craft multiple arrows, don't just use 4 small rocks, 2 feathers and 2 sticks, craft, then place the same recipie again. Place 20 small rocks, 10 feathers and 10 sticks onto the crafting mat. Now spam the craft button for faster crafting speeds. This can be done for all crafting.
    10) Don't be stingy with your guns and ammo. There isn't an end boss (that's not a spoiler, its a disappointment), and ammo respawns when you log out and back in.
    11) You can use your shovel on ANY lightish brown terrain (that looks similar to the grave's terrain). There is a chance of finding bones and coins with each dig. Do this for pretty much unlimited coins if you don't want to cheese the respawn trick.
    12) You can use quarter logs vertically cut, and add it to a campfire (it basically becomes firewood), greatly prolonging it's burn time.
    13) You can stack firewood to create a firewood pile, looks cool to boot.
    14) If you see a tied up Cave Dweller, or Fingers, at a cannibal campsite; you can sneak in, cut it free and watch the carnage unfurl. Cannibals and Cave Dwellers attack each other on sight.
    15) Blueberries are crap. Don't waste your time eating them.

I beelined to the cave with the 3D printer, made a mask, then set off to the beach to create a base. 3 cannibals arrived, then I continuously wore the mask and even approached them. They didn't attack at all. I repeated this every time they revisted.

    If you need feathers build near the coast where there are seagulls. Make a "body pile" and place bird houses near the pile. Seagulls are attracted to bodies and will leave loads of feathers. Chop bodies up as much as possible to create as many body "nodes" as you can to attract more seagulls. This also works on the original "Forest"

    Don’t know if anyone knows this. But you can make log transport easier by placing a post next to your base, place a post next to you (where your clearing trees) and shoot a zip line between the 2 post you place. And place the logs on the zip line :)

    @frozencreeper ปีที่แล้ว +4

    In winter season, you can build a base on a frozen lake, which will last even when winter is over. Thanks to zip lines you can enter and leave the base with no problem, while enemies stay out for 3/4 year. To avoid attacks on your base in coming winters (when the lake is frozen again) you can install defense systems like sticks in the ice which you sharp with your axe after placing them. Your enemies will kill themselves when done correctly. This will also provide an easy way to get some food during the cold time (even when you realise at that moment, that you, too, are a cannibal).
    A locked door can be realized by putting a stick on your installed door. But enemies will destroy your door to enter your house.
    Using zip lines, take care to install them on trees, because enemies will destroy everything that isn't 100% natural. If you connect a zip line to a simple log which you may place because there is no tree around, you may loose your good rope because some enemy destroyed the log. Of cause you can protect your zip line carrying log with spikes, but that costs ressources and time.
    Fighting mutants, I'm not sure but I think that a torch is your best weapon. Set those creeps on fire multiple times will kill most of them really quick.

    I don't use the backpack to switch items and I'll tell you why...In SPM, when you open your inventory, it stops the game (time continues to elapse) so let's say you're very low on health simply press I and enemies will not be able to attack you so long as they're not in their attack animations already. While in your inventory, you can eat to recover hp and leave it open while the hp bar fills up then, when full, you can go back to your business. Very handy...ESPECIALLY ON HARD MODE.

    One tip I felt so dumb for not knowing, you can put sticks face up in the ground then hit them with your axe and it pushes the stick outward along with turning the blunt stick into a spike. So in the situation where you're having enemies that keep coming from a certain direction you can put spikes along that area, while pairing that zone with traps.

    Also i might add a very very important tip, that'll make your life oh so much easier. I play on hard and Fingers are literally pain in me arse. But! Make 5 spears, see the finger, toss 4 into it's body or head and with your remaining spear, thrust into it's legs, it'll stunblock it and while it's stunned you can recover your spears you tossed and keep stabbing it, until your stamina runs out, get some distance and fill our finger boy with spears again and when you're going to stabby stabby, you will kill it easily. Also it's manageable with two or three fingers, just wee bit more running around. Also! Those weeping/sleepwalking cannibals in the cave drop creepy armor, as well as all the mutants. If you have 10 on you and 10 in inventory, you're pretty tanky and do 3-5 caves without worrying. Also modern axe is life saver against babies and weeping cannibals.

Now if you got the beach spawn, there is a spot just on the coast where like 6 or 7 seagulls spawn. Just chuck a grenade in the middle of them and I got around 70 feathers.

    I built my base on stilts(or struts). cannibals have never gotten in and in some cases I just crouched and hid inside my base and they ran around and checked stuff out but never jumped/climbed inside my house. cannibals can potentiall knock it down but there are tons of support beams underneath and they'd have to get damn near all of them. I left the redundant ones underneath instead of taking them out once the ceiling is done inside. they are pretty much sitting ducks under there, i also had a redman get stuck under the base once. then i use one diagonal full-log near an opening (from floor to level 1 for running up, i'm current testing using a staircase with only 2 steps spaced out to see if cannibals can still use it to climb in. Otherwise I did a 3 story rope ladder but you can't carry logs up there if you're trying to make a very tall base w/o stairs.

    Best defense of base is 3-4 rows of sharpened sticks in ground at angle. (1 or 2 rows they can easily jump over with sprint). Leave space between rows so you can walk in there, but not more.
