Investigating Locations
Investigate Nearby locations and get cash and supplies by: Hunting Zombies, Scavenging for supplies or collecting from outposts. You can also start or join Safehouses from here. From the "Investigate Nearby" list, you can see the number of other Survivors, the number of Zombies at each locations and other SHs in the area.
Hunting
Hunt zombies in a location to reduce the number of zombie infestation, get experience (EXP Points) and cash and increase your "Hunting Skill."
Hunting is one of the mini-games in PSC. You can choose from 3 hunting options, Recon, Hunt or Assault which vary in difficulty as well as energy cost.
Zombies that are left roaming a location will end up damaging any SH that has been established there.
- Fights are real-time, turn-based; you get limited time to choose your attack every turn
- 6 attack areas will appear at the bottom of the screen when it is your turn to attack
- Choose and tap on an attack area to use that weapon, tap one before they disappear (tap quickly enough to get a 5% increase on the weapon's damage!)
- The attack areas are based on the weapons that you own in your own inventory
Survivors, Friends and Allies
Any Hired Allies or other survivors in that location will assist you in your hunt. On occasion some of your friends may randomly appear to help you during your hunt as well.
Scavenging
Scavenge locations to get supplies and items to increase your scavengeing skill. Each location can only be scavenged every thirty minutes.
Scavenging is one of the mini-games in PSC. You can choose from 3 scavenging options, Explore, Search and Scour, which vary in difficulty as well as energy lost.
How to Scavenge:
- Hold and drag the flashlight around the screen to find supplies and items
- You have a limited time to grab all the supplies and items on the screen
- Beware of the moving zombies! Once you're caught, you'll lose everything you've found!
Scavenging at a special locked room
When you find a "Locked Room," buy a lockpick from the Market to open the room. Locked Rooms typically have more supplies, items and cash than regular scavenging.
Outposts
Establish outposts to collect supplies or cash over varying periods of time.
You can establish outposts at any location, but only 1 outpost per location is permitted.
If you are collecting too late or too far from the location, you will be charged a late/distance collection penalty. Collecting from outposts will increase your Trader Skill
As you progress through the game, additional Outposts will be made available. Existing outposts can be sold for a small return or replaced with newer ones at cost. The maximum number of outposts you can build is 3x your current trader level.
Outpost Courier
The Outpost Courier will collect all your Outposts for you instantly, for a small feee. You will still get all the trader skill experience that you would normally get from manually collecting your outposts. You will also get a bonus in cash and supplies, from the courier, based on how much you are collecting in this instance.
