I ventured into a lab (almost under my base; that's why the loading took so long all the months) and killed some phase shrikes, thus aquiring some activity suits and malfunctioning 5-point-anchors.

The purpose of activity suits I get, but what are these malfunctioning 5-point-anchors for? Why are they malfunctioning?

Day 1 I encountered a Moroi within seconds of starting up the game and was infected in combat with it.

1.5 Days from Wan infection, now vampire. Day 2 6PM Day 4 7AM learned first ability Gleaming eyes Day 4 1:30PM learned second ability Revocer stamina Day 6 6:55AM learned third ability Learn from Children of the Night

Day 7 8PM reached reddened eyes Day 9 11:45AM VAMPIRE2 stage reached

Day 9 12PM First tier 2 power achieved Coagulant weave Coagulant weave removed bleed effects but not poison

Day 11 12AM LEarned bloodheal

Day 13 6PM Emptiness effect

Day 14 1AM Mortal Hungers VAMPIRE 3 stage

Day 14 12:20PM Hypnotic Gaze appears

Day 15 3AM Learned Bloodhaste. Final current vampire ability.

In my first world, as a new player, it's very, very hard to find recipes that use the few, common items I have. The crafting list is cluttered by more advanced items. I know it's not yet the full list as some recipes have to be learned, but it still takes checking a lot of recipes to find one I can make.

Can it only show items I can make right now? Like the "Show craftable" recipe book button in Minecraft, if I'm allowed to compare this game to Minecraft.

There could also be an option to see recipes I only lack 1 (or N) items for, so I can then have the goal to seek out the missing items.

I was translating raw veggys and I was wondering if salsify roots are Scorzonera hispanica or Tragopogon porrifolius.

You like Retrodays but you don't want to squint at tiny sprites? Well here's a solution: GiantDays! Basically Nerodays tileset upscaled and redrawn to 20x20 sprites It's currently available in the tileset repo https://github.com/I-am-Erk/CDDA-Tilesets/pull/2098 and should get shiped with the game soonish

I've been finding a little time to do micro PRs with just a bit of small talk for NPCs I write. Having been out of commission for months, it feels good. I've added a little small talk for Jenny Forcette, Uyen Tran, and Mandeep Singh in the refugee centre.

If there's an NPC, particularly in the refugee center but I'm open to other suggestions, who you would love to get a little more characterization and dialogue, feel free to suggest. Or, if there's a short-answer question you'd like to ask a particular NPC, let me know. In my next pass I am going to try to add a bit of dialogue where you can ask Rubik about where they came from, for example.

anything like nexusmodmanger or whatever for DDA?
