WHERE'S THE VINEGAR REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Headshotkill]

20 days in survival mode, searched the whole of riverside and surrounding houses, including trailer park.
Found 1 and a half bottle of vinegar, my whole crop harvest is going to rot away because I can't jar it all up, also can't start up the generator because I can't find a generator manual, I've 3 generators stored up near my safehouse + a bunch of gasoline.

With enough fumbling and the will to do something it should be possible for him to get that generator hooked up and running, or bumb the spawnrate of generator manuals in houses that also have a generator.
Also bumb the spawnrate of vinegar, how the hell did anyone make a salad dressing before the apocalypse hit?

That's my two cents on the latest build 41, everything else is perfect.

EDIT: Also extreme stuttering lag when driving during rainy weather, after the rain stops it still stutters and lags probably due to puddles.

I dont think I have seen vinegar in game yet.

Yeah its puddles. I have set dynamic puddles off for now, because the stuttering was a bit annoying. Im sure it will get sorted soon.

I’ve seen vinegar in kitchen cabinets a couple times, but only early game so it wasn’t worth taking. Just keep scouting houses I guess. About the generator manuals, just keep looking. Go to hardware stores, they should nearly always have several manuals including the generator one. You might just have to go to another town if you can’t find vinegar though.

Yeah, vinegar and all stuff to make canned food is rare
Too rare to be of any practical use

For generators, either you find the book (mostly in garages) or you level electricity tp 3
If i cant find the book and cant level electricity to 3, i head for the railyard near Muldraugh
There are generally quite a few there

So far I found 3 boxes of jars/lids, 4 packs of sugar and 1,5 bottles of vinegar.
1 full bottle of vinegar can make 3 jars of vegetables, I could only make 4 jars before I ran out of vinegar and I'm not planning on massive roadtrips from the farms north-west from riverside all the way to westpoint or the farms to the south, which means the overwhelming majority of the harvest will rot away.

Vinegar is by far the most limiting resource for canning food, as it stands it's not a viable tactic for stocking up for winter. Pasta and rice are also a bit too rare to my taste, while on the other hand canned food is too abundend, I have 3 cupboards packed with canned food and junk food that stays good. If the devs lowered the amount of canned food a bit while raising the amount of perishable food + pasta/rice + vinegar in house kitchens, it would stimulate players to hunt for a generator and also make jarring/farming your own food more nescessary.

Lets be honest, many raw materials seem to be rare :D WHERE IS MY FLOUR! I managed to find 3 bottles of vinegar from a single shop in muldraugh... BUT! I have yet to find flour from anywhere.

Vinegar, Jar, Jar lid, were always rare. There was a Mod in B40 that upped the spawnrate. Maybe it will be updated for B41.
