Enemies and ammo
Posted: Mon Feb 17, 2020 8:25 pm
So I apparently started this game 80 hours ago.
I'm loving it. The Tech. The Tiers of Tech. The RPG etc.
Awesome stuff.
There's just one problem.
When I started I got a little scared and turned the bitters to peaceful.
I must have somehow missed the warnings about needing enemies turned on.
So I now find myself 80 hours in with everything up to and including Blue science, but with no way to easily proceed into Grey (military) science.
So I figured I'd prep some defences and then turn the bitters back on.
If this were vanilla, I'd create a a wall with a series of guns and a belt of ammo.
The trouble is that I don't understand the varieties of ammunition etc.#
It seems there are many types of enemy and many types of ammo.
In addition, there appears to be something of a shortage of sulfur which appears to be necessary to create gunpowder. Don't get me wrong I've got quite a bit leftover from mining coal, but it seams like when I run out of this sulfur, the only way to get more will be to mine way more coal than I actually need.
Let's ignore that problem for the moment though.
I'd really like to understand the ammo.
Is there a simple guide to the enemies and related ammo that someone can point me at?
