Obenseuer/Getting Started: Difference between revisions

There is a lot going on in [[Obenseuer]] and it can feel a little confusing, but don’t worry, this guide will help you with some basics.

Pretty self-explanatory, health is good for not dying. To restore your health temporarily you can get painkillers. For more permanent solution visit a doctor (just don't eat turnip a day before that!).

[[SMV|Stalburg Mushroom Virus]], or simply ''SMV'', is a dangerous disease that awaits you in the world of Obenseuer. Disease progression level and progression rate are two hidden stats that you have no direct control of. Eating those funny looking mushrooms, drinking bad water or simply doing shady things like sleeping on the street may get you SMV infection. It will start slowly, but eventually it will kill you because there is no cure. You can, however, visit a doctor frequently to check for its progression and even perform a surgical removal of the surplus fungus that will buy you some time. Drinking pure [https://d7.wtf/p/os-items/#150020 ethanol] or even [https://d7.wtf/p/os-items/#150010 methanol] will also slow down SMV progression, but this is really dangerous for your health.

Your main task for the first night is to basically survive and for that you will need money. There are many ways to earn some Open Sewer Coins, but the easiest one is to do some bottle recycling. Right in front of the border inspection building you will see a couple of people, you may speak with them and they will give you a couple of quests along with some valuable information. O-Market is the first obvious place where you can get some precious money for those bottles and there is some food and drinks for you too. It's located just down the starting street. Bottle recycling is also a great way to explore Obenseuer! Keep in mind that dumpsters and trash bins are a valuable source of bottles and other stuff, check them regularly as all items in the game are randomly respawning from time to time. Avoid dangerous places such as canals, don't forget to watch your stats and you'll be fine.

Your tenement can become your main source of income and your base of operations, but you need to put some money and resources into it first. It would be wise to start with examining and preparing apartments to move in first tenants, leaving renovation of your own apartment for later while you safely sleep at the Hostel, some people are desperate enough that a simple upgrade of Makeshift Walls will meet their requirements, some may require additional bathroom or heating first. The most basic Makeshift Walls require 30 Planks, 30 Nails, 15 Scrap Metal, 4 Tape and 2 Tarps with an initial payment of 2000 OC and a final payment of 75 RM, may sound like a lot for the start, but collecting bottles, helping at the farm and selling unnecessary for now items will help you gather funds for the first upgrades. Materials can be found all over the place or bought at Hardware stall or One Stop Shop, you can also manufacture some yourself, like the planks made using a Sawbuck or a Table Saw. It is worth finding out what requirements people have, as the amount of apartments is limited and there is a lot of renovations to complete, so a lot of planning is advised and will be helpful.

Now you should have almost everything for a start and there are many things to explore and experience in the world of Open Sewer, so just go ahead and have fun! Don't forget to share all issues you find to [https://github.com/loiste-interactive/Obenseuer-Issues the official OS bugtracker].
