Food Spoiling in my Military Cryo Freezer

[bosro1971]

Since the update, food has been spoiling in my freezer when they weren't before. Anyone else having this issue?

[Prussian_Dude]

If you change camps, and its not up, then the food can spoil, I believe. Also, If world hopping, your camp and stats are not in for a time small time, and can make stuff spoil, on your person, since, good with salt is not loaded in for a few seconds.
Hope this helps.

It's not useless though.

If your CAMP 1 has a freezer, but CAMP 2 does not and you switch from 1st to 2nd... Your food is moved from freezer to regular stash - just because Camp 2 does not have a freezer.

Simply make sure BOTH (or all, if more) of your camps have the freezer placed. Then your food will not spoil.

you could freeze brahmin milk and scorchbeast meat and make premium food once you collect enough ingredients. You could also stock up on tasty squirrel stew.

When setting up and or moving a camp the first thing I put down is the Freezer-always.

My cryo freezer has been working fine, just make sure you put everything in fresh.

I also had changed camp for a day that didn't have a freezer while hoping for a pet, it was packed full and everything remained full condition.

I wish I could store other perishables in it, like raw flux. Often I'll have an odd amount that I can't stabilize and it ends up going to waste.

Except my food is spoiling IN the freezer. I don't have a second camp, just the one. I had made a bunch of Tasty Squirrel Stew and now most of it has spoiled, which sux because I haven't found a good spot for salt yet.

It's useless for me. I only have one camp and the food is spoiling faster than if I had it in my bags.

Its the "Military Cryo-Freezer", that has 100% non degrading spoilage.

The Regular Regular Refrigerators just have 50%, and "Good With Salt" Three Star is 75%.

The Military Cryo-Freezer, was from a season for Fallout First, now available with gold bullion. The "Military Cryo Freezer" is not a skin of the regular refrigerators. The "Military Cryo-Freezer" is its own appliance. Its above the Refrigerators, in the Build Menu. There is no skin for it in game, only one that was data mined.

It should be a Very Light yellow, rectangle, with a gray panel with a white star, and a Hand Reader to the Left of it. The part with the star should have a section with 3 shelves rise up.

Is that what you are using? If not, then you don't have the "Military Cryo-Freezer" in use, and probably a refrigerator. So, are you using the "Military Cryo-Freezer"?

Or the refrigerator "Camp Cooler"/"Freeze Cooler" from this season Score board. or any other refrigerator?

note the part about clearing pickup list before starting loot run, scroll down to fixed spawn locations, next page shows many locations with pics of physical world locations;

I picked out a few spots and added as part of my main loot run, hope this helps

Then perhaps you are not putting items into the freezer itself?

Maybe you're putting food into your stash, thinking it would work? Which is wrong, because it won't. You have to directly put food into the freezer itself. Oh and the freezer should also be powered up (in range of power source, similar to lights).

Otherwise I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

The "Military Cryo Freezer" Does not have, a power requirement that I could see, for how much power it would need. But, yes, like the Fermenter, you have to put the item, in this case food, in it.

I only got it recently because i was looking to store squirrels from the event.
The way I read it food should last twice as long as otherwise but will still spoil.
Is that how it works?

its 100% frozen(infinity), zero spoilage(or it should be unless its bugged somehow for OP), the cooler is 3 times the size but is only 50% (twice as long)
