Extended Piratez general FAQ/Strategy Guide

[Dioxine]

20+50% = 30, so the health damage would be 50-30 = 20.

[Gyuudon]

For Battle Flag use, what exactly triggers me to be unable to use the Battle Flag (Text: you lack discipline)? Morale lower than Bravery?

[Eddie]

To use the flag, you need 20 energy and 65 moral.

How do you tell which melee weapons are two or one handed?

[Eddie]

Meridians exe which is now the standard has an option to display indicators for twohandedness. It is not enabled by default. If you enable it, twohanded weapons have the number two displayed in their picture in the battlescape. A green 2 means it can be used with penalty as a onehanded weapon, a red 2 means it cannot be used with one hand only.

As of 0.99B is out, there's some medical stuff in the game. What are the ones that can be used both by the carryer on himself and on an injuried gal?

Hmm..
Rum, vodka,  Magical Medikit, mushroom beer, X-grog, apple, mutant meat, magical cake...

all of these have the "    allowSelfHeal: true" attribute.

How about oxygen tank or not? Sadly bandages, medical bag and medical supplies AFAIR can be used only on a patient.

[ivandogovich]

Yep there are other items that can be used on oneself and others.  I thought you referred to items that Healed only (removed wounds or gave health).

So if you want the other items like that:
Canteen, beer, sake, pain killers, combat drugs, oxygen tank, buddha smokes, crack, pillow book, and the Wench outfit's Good Touch.

What are the use for mutant meat and personal database? Bootypedia description is quite vague.

What are the use for mutant meat and personal database? Bootypedia description is quite vague.

Mutant meat: One use, give 50 energy, 50 morale, and 2 health.
personal database:  Basically the drops from human corpses.  These can be used later for creating researchable items, like  "Govt Personal Code", "Govt/Reticulan Files", "Humanist Files".  Further hacking work can turn them into decrypted data discs as well.

[Solarius Scorch]

Mutant meat is really good on mansion missions. There's plenty lying around in kitchens, and there are always some wounded gals, so I tend to raid the meat supplies with them to get some health back and therefore get shorter hospital time.

Thanks for the tips! And what is usage for the Rare earth elements and soylent? Also Tiny drill is supposer to be an item which become useful later? Has a prerty money value though.

Rare earth elements are components for many items down the road. You can get them from cave hunts or Raider Corpses.
Soylent is basically a food good that can be sold or purchased on the market.  It is used later in medical and unit creations.
Tiny Drill is a critical component along with the Menacing Hulk for an iconic vessel in the game.

Since extended piratez uses the Custom executable realized by the user Meridian i've seen on a gameplay video on youtube, while in battlescape, a strange screen concerning some firing/accuracy stats. What does it means and how i invoke that ingame?
