In this chapter our focus will be to craft a Workbench, Cement Mixers and upgrade our base to Concrete. Craft a better means of transportation and prep our base for better defences.

From this point on, the Master Loot List will no longer show the amounts of Tape to be collected. This is something you must collect at all times, whether it’s by combining murky water and bones, or cloth and glue or buying tape directly from the Trader. Just remember to craft Tape on a daily basis.

Main Goals

  • Transfer everything from the POI to your bunker.
  • Craft 1 Workbench, 2 Cement mixers and 2 Forges.
  • Update your base to Concrete.
  • Craft a Minibike.
  • Prep base for electrical defences.

Keep in Mind Daily

  • Loot and dismantle POIs each day.
  • Keep Bones and Murky water when collected, this is important for crafting lots of Glue / Tapes.
  • Dismantle cars, buses and trucks.
  • Smelt Stone and craft Forged Iron with Forges during the days.
  • Smelt Iron and Clay and craft Cement with Forges during the nights.
  • Craft Concrete Mix with Cement Mixers during the days.
  • Craft Sand with Cement Mixers during the nights.
  • Dig and shape out the Farming room each night.
