Now that you have registered your account, and hopefully have completed the tutorial. You are now standing there wondering what to do. This guide will be for you.
I highly suggest you go thru the startup tutorial and read the games startup guide.(Press F1)
The first thing to do is press the M key to view the map and see where you are.
As you look at the map the bigger re
The Grey areas are mountains, Green are forests and yellow deserts.
On the bottom left of the map screen you will notice 2 #’s change as you move your mouse around, those are the X,Y coordinates of that location on the map.
On the bottom right you will see 2 buttons Oil and Zone. The zone button will display the green, yellow, red and black zones on the map.
Yellow is areas surrounding the green zones.
Red zones are danger zones where you may be attacked by zombies and if you die in this zone you have a 10% change to lose something from each units inventory slots.
Black zones are like red zones but you have a greater chance of being jumped by zombies and you have a 50% chance of losing something from each units inventory slots
The Main screen
On the top left, the first # is the number of people on the server.
Next – the game time. So you will know when certain events happen such as the altar eats dark energy (Once in 3 game days – real 6 hours).
GC is the game currency. Drops: from bots, rewards for a placement in the blitz ranking. It is spent for the purchase of territory, units, clan, etc.
PC – premium coins. Very rarely drop from zombies, rewarded from the yearly ranking, they can also be purchased thru the premium shop.
TP – Tech points. Drops from bots, also as you perform actions such as resource gathering and crafting you will receive pts. For each achievement achieved. They are spent on the study of technology.
X and Y Current Coordinates of your mouse cursor on the screen.
Top right you have a compass rose and below that is the current threat level of your location(green, yellow, red, and black)
Bottom left is the chat interface
Left side of screen(you can have up to 5 units):
The level of the unit and the experience necessary to achieve the next level.
HP – Health. Hit points of the unit
AP – moves. Spend for every action in the battle, see “How to fight?”
Stamina – It is spent in battle, for every step taken.
Morale – If your unit dies in battle – the rest of your units will lose morale. At low values, units decrease the number of available moves. Killing bots restores morale.
Satiety – Drops every 2 minutes. Twice as fast if the unit is wounded. If 0, the unit’s health drops to 10 HP. To restore satiety eat something-put it in the inventory of the unit and press RMB.
Main and reserve slots. Press X to swap them.
