COMBAT GUIDE

You, I see, you are definitely here for something special... Maybe I you are a fan of fast FPS shooters and games of the SUPER GORE category, who has a creative mood, maybe someone who is looking for something to do in this game, believing that he has achieved everything, or maybe you are the one who could not believe that you died onece more in the Warehouse and came to seek salvation in the guides...

Anyway, wanderer, you will get what you wanted and become the top of the food chain in this world again

But some games such as quake and doom have a special technique which is called "Quickswitching"

The first thing to know is that you can skip cooldown animation of every weapon using this technique by, of course, switching slots. SO, you can accelerate your fire rate and gain an advantage.

And if I am telling you all this ♥♥♥♥ right now I want to say that Scrap Mechanic has this accelerating technique. And here it is... The most effective and simple technique Right now you can see average fan of punching air without any tricks. This looks like he is gonna die soon because of fatigue.
On the over hand you can see gigachad average techniques enjoyer who prefers destroying trees like a man instead of robbing houses near the road. Because of this ultimate power the sun has risen. As you can see with each punch I switch my weapon slot to encrease my firerate. I would recommend you to set "1" and "2" like "z" and "x"

So you might already understood that this technique can destroy rocks and robo-heads as well

Actually, at this point, you can leave this guide. But if you want more advanced tricks let's see the next part of this article

If you noticed, after any hammer shot, your character slows down by 0.5 seconds, which is just terrible and unforgivable! Are you going to spend your whole life in your computer games? Then learn to save these 0.5 seconds! Switching to any other item cancels the current deceleration instantly, but be careful-switching to the hammer back any time will slow you down again immediately and make you wait the same amount of time, so the best option is to" recharge " the hammer while standing at the broken box, waiting for the loot to fall out, or simply avoid the deceleration stage by constantly switching after hitting.

Here you can see 2 variations.The first one is done without this technique and the second with it

Ok, now let's see what quickswitching can do with other weapons

First of all semi-auto weapons are Spugun and Spudshotgun. Both of these weapons have the same firerate, so I am gonna accelerate only shotgun. Here it is-natural fire rate of the semi-auto weapon. Nothing special
And this is how THE REAL DAMAGE LOOKS LIKE. This technique has the highest DPS in the game. It can kill farm bot without taking any damage very quick

There is only one automatic weapon and there isn't anything special about it. But you can control firerate by always clicking the fire button for getting better accuracy Without stabilization
With stabilization

You may say that this is useless but hear me out. Spudling gun can drain your ammunition very quickly and not because of low accuracy but because of the fact that you hit every unit more than it actually needs. I would call this weapon V2 of the spudgun with function of fullauto in sticky situations

The water bucket is actually a weapon. You can falter Haybots with it. Let's see what we will get by stunning hay bot and then using accelerated hammer
You may say that this method is inefficient beacuse you can't hold many buckets and it's hard to fill them with water but there is a trick with a vacuum pump which will give you 600 water buckets

So the only thing up to you is how many buckets are you gonna take with you. Water buckets will open you possibility to kill haybots for free (without using any ammunition) and will give you ability to split groups of enemies for better combo performing

In this article I will show you some weapon combo in order of decreasing potato consumption.

The most simple, ugly and inefficient method
Shotgun+Shotgun

My favorite one after getting shotgun. Really fast and efficient
Spudgun+Shotgun+Hammer

My favorite before getting the shotgun
Spudgun+Doublehammer+Spudgun+Hammer
Pretty good variation with 2 scenarios
Shotgun+Doublehammer
Doublehammer+Shotgun
Eco mod. You can fire to make unit spot you or to give it extra damage in the middle of the combo
Spudgun+Doublehammer+Doublehammer
Doublehammer+Spudgun+Doublehammer
Nothing really interesting to say here
Hammeruntilitisdone
Waterbucket+Hammeruntilitisdone

In this article I will show you some data about damage taken, heal and more.

I noticed that even in wiki there isn't any information about bot's resistance to weapons, so here it is-
Table including resistance data. First of all let's see all entities in the game to make navigating more simple for newbies

P.s1 In column "shots" for shotgun after first number there is this figure "(...)". Well, you see, shotgun shots 4 bullets at once, so the first number is how many times you need to shoot actually and second number is how many bullets have to reach the target

P.s2 R.Penetration is measured as a percentage relative to Spudgun penetration which is always 100%. The less R.penetration weapon has the stronger unit's resistance to this weapon is and the opposite

P.s3 Glowb has the same data as Haybot, Tapebot type:red has the same data as Tapebot type:blue

This crazy game only has 3 items to heal yourself

There will be some creative combat techniques even if they are not really efficient.

Crash your enemies using this powerful device! If you will hit it with good angle it will kill haybot instantly or it will drop bot on the floor. When you use this technique bots can't get close to you because they are to scared of you. Planting video

Many old players know that it was removed and this is true. However, I can offer a movement option that, while maintaining the usual speed, will allow you to jump 3 times higher if you want to surprise others with your acrobatics and give bots a slap in the face by jumping over them. Of course, we are talking about placing an elevator and activating it right on the run. However, many scrap mechanics have faced such a problem that when they press the run button, they can't change the slot of the selected weapon and lift the elevator. To do this, you can set the auto run by selecting the Shift+w combination for the running action and at the same time set the lift lift to a more convenient button (for me this is CapsLock) Then all you need is to hold down Shift and W, getting the auto run. The technique can allow you to hit the heads with a hammer, if you get the proper skill, right between the elevator placement

This guide was provided to you in order to increase the pleasure of the game and expand the game experience, it is useless to argue that almost all the techniques shown have no value, since you can just shoot a shotgun at anything and get the same result. The shown techniques only allow you to add life and action to the combat system, giving out the saving of potatoes in profit. Most people will only be interested in the opportunity to hit the hammer more frequently, but if you are one of those who does not like to look for easy ways, then you will definitely like this guide.

Thank you for reading my guide! Let me know your opinion in the comments and if you want to add your techniques to my guide, I will be grateful.

I also plan to release a guide to collecting resources such as component kits, so support me if you rate this idea positively.
