I got home and loaded up my game and the screen is completely black. I could see the UI just fine, and could move around despite not being able to see anything. After a bit the graphics popped back up. However, I found myself outside my safehouse, as if I had walked through the wall, as there were no doors open. Then I went back inside my house and noticed the place where the fridge had been was blank and thus all my food had disappeared. I'm assuming this is a bug? I think somehow I may have walked through the fridge while the screen was black, causing it to disappear. Anyway just wanted to throw that out there in case it isn't a known issue. Gonna start a new file and give all these tips and tricks a go! Thanks again for the info! EDIT: After reading a bit more on the forums I see the black screen issue is already known so discard that.

Thanks a bunch for the info and welcome! I also found a link to the wiki and map and I am dying(pun maybe intended) to get home and play!!

I just started the game yesterday and am playing the regular Steam version. Within a few days of starting my characters are always sad, bored, in agony, etc. I figured out how to make bandages and apply them but that only helps scratches and stuff. Once the broken bone icon comes up saying I need first aid I'm usually screwed as i can't figure out how to do it. Also, my chracter slowly worsens over time in pain to agony etc. I don't see how to stop this either. Finally sadness and boredom, how do you take of these? EDIT: One more thing. My weapons don't seem to last very long at all. Is there a way to increase durability or repair them?
