finding tools on " you have 1 day" challenge

[Kara]

I noticed on this map it was impossible for me to forage in any of the wooded areas for materials to make an axe so i can actually make barricades. Do i have to just keep playing it until i get lucky and find an axe? If there is a map for this challenge that would be great too.

you can make axe from foraging findings

Fire axe is very rare , mostly found in werehouses thats atleast where i found it more commonly , its also very rare zombie loot(loot all zombies)

Technicaly you dont need to baricade yourself , first 3 days ingame should most likely be "nomad life of gathering things"

First day is run & dodge and hope to find or craft a weapon. Oh and find something like a backpack. That helps! :)

soo I should be able to forage in the trees? I never had the option pop up like in regular games. I thought you could do it at any lvl.

I've foraged for stuff to make an axe before. Also done the scavange like crazy mode too.

Usually know where I plan on setting up shop. First goal for me is scavange, find a backpack and start stockpiling whatever i can. After that it is all about staying alive and getting home setup Gluck!

By barricades do you mean like actually barricading windows and doors or just like making walls and stuff?

I can't remember it's been a while since I did that challenge, but I want to say I knocked down some doors and used their planks to seal off a room in an upstairs house and used that as a safe hideout.Worked surprisingly well even when there were hordes of them just outside.

I did this challenge and it was too laggy to play after awhile. Maybe its my pc?
I had enough time to get a sledgehammer, logs, trashbags and make a farm above ground. There is a fort in the woods to the SW with more crates. Making a fast build with just skill traits helps. You can get an axe reliably from the burned down survivor house if I remember correctly.
