Gaining weight
Any tips on gaining weight? im playing CDDA so 6 months later, never had issues in B41 but now in B42 when looting is harder so is gaining weight.
Eating an entire lamb 3 days in a row and still losing weight :(

Normally food with high calories and you have to eat nonstop.

apparently there is a "bug" preventing weight gain with anything other than fishing and butter.
picking slow metabolism might be a temporary solution

That isn't the case. Fish has a fair amount of fat and calories and butter is just pure fat. That's why they work so well. However you can certainly gain weight on other foods.

In 41 there was a bonus to weight gain if some fat and carbs threshold met.
But mostly depends on calories, so you could gain weight even on strawberries, just would need a bit too much of it.

butter is king, and now you can mass produce it...

I just wish we can start obese again from the get go, I have trouble becoming obese naturally in 42.. Also I read somewhere that choosing slow or fast metabolism both happen to burn more calories at rest than selecting neither. If that's true, then yeah definitely bugged.

Can i make butter from milk carts or does it have to be milked from a cow? Ive yet to see any wild cows only dead ones
HydrO Dec 27, 2024 @ 12:20pm 
You can make butter from any kind of cow milk (even sheep milk i belive but havent tried), as long as it isn't mixed with something else, like chocolate or other additives. The milk looted on the world comes in tho variants one is pure one is not.
