Gunpowder
« on: March 12, 2013, 04:26:17 am »
I tried to do the research for gunpowder in NU. Could not get it to work until I hit the automate button. I got a couple of new skills, used 2 PM notes, but that was it, couldn't make gunpowder. Read the tutorial on making ammo, went to Saransk, put in the exact amount of resources the tutorial said to. Result, used 4 more PM notes, got experience in a couple of skills, still can't make gunpowder. Can a newcomer make gunpowder? The officer in game says to ask the manufacturing supervisor for details about making ammo. Where is this guy?

If you used the amounts here
http://wiki.afterworld.ru/wiki/Gunpowder

and clicked confirm, and you didn't get the research done, or don't have the option to click confirm, then maybe newcomers can't research, but i think they can, because in Alpha newcomers were able to craft ammo in Qa1, as far as i remember from when i was a newcomer in Qa1 there.

I assume you've already looked through this

In Alpha, Newcomers could not craft ammo because they could not leave Quarantine to go to Sar to research Gunpowder.  (The research facility in Quarantine did not work).
We are in an odd situation for Newcomers at the moment because they are allowed to leave Quarantine.   I presume that at some point the NPCs at the gates will be introduced and the old rules will apply.
(Dale's book mentions Newcomers making ammo in NU which puzzled me, but I thought he must know more than I do)  ;)

I had to make them get to gunpowder to use a gun.. I think research should be turned on in NU.

I don't believe newcomers will be stuck in NU, since firstly, they start in Mugen village and make their way to NU, and secondly, they receive a 50 clone bonus per outpost visited.

Thank you for all the information guys.

I did read the information on the wiki site Allfather. I had thought that I would be able to make some when I came across the guy that walks around NU and one of the questions had to do with ammo. I can no longer put any gunpowder components in to the research window for gunpowder and when I go to the weapons components machine it still says I need to research gunpowder.

I am assuming that us lowly newcomers can not do any research, and I was so looking forward to trying out some new ammo on some of the beasties in NU.  :'(

Well the only conclusion i can reach is newcomers cannot research. If you just wanted ammo though its not too hard to get. Making it is nice of course but you could get any item by trading for it with someone.

If you dont care about crafting profession, then i suggest that you should buy ammo! Its much cheapper than making it yourself!
