Laker

thanks, it worked.

I am unable to plaster or paint some corners. It is a wall that I constructed. You can see it top corner of the attached screenshot. (Sorry, don't know why the multiple images.) The reason I took an exterior shot is because I don't understand if it is related to the two unpainted beams on the exterior wall at the bottom of the screenshot. They are both corner walls so I was wondering if that might be of help. I am also getting a red error code when the game starts so that might be related as well. Thanks for your help.

That's a good question. I'm the same as you about conserving fuel. I just logged into my server and tried - no to welding torch and sledgehammer. The sledge can take down the wooden electricity line poles when I tried those. I don't know how you take down a street lamp, would love to hear if it's possible.

Pr1vateLime on YouTube did a series where he was using a cart to transport lumber. That might be what you are looking for.

I like the idea. It makes sense for finding some zombies. But Fryhizzle's point about idle zombies is valid. There'd need to be some balance.

I used this and it was very easy to follow. Saved me a lot of time and frustration. Thank you so much.

Have you tried any of the isolated cabins? Should find fishing items as well. I always worry about getting lost trying to get to those places so rarely go.

I achieved level 10 strength skill - it often glitches back to just a few points shy of level 10. I can play the game and within 20 minutes or so I have regained the 10 level. It is almost as if it reset to my last save prior to achieving the 10th level for the first time. Doesn't bother me but thought you'd be interested in knowing about it. Cheers.

The amount of time it takes to heal, to suture, to remove glass, all the action become quicker as your skills raise. If it doesn't seem like much, it will save your life when you are badly injured and are bleeding to death because you can't perform the actions quickly enough. At level 10, you zoom through the actions of giving yourself treatment and the healing time seems greatly reduced. It does time a long time to grind though. As soon as I'd heal up from wounds, I'd walk barefoot on broken glass and jump through windows with the broken glass still in place - it was a grind but I'm glad I did it. I do like Extrema's suggestion about chance of failure being involved with each medical action.
