How to sleep?
Hi, just bought this game. I built a shelter. Saving works. But no matter at which angle I press Z, sleeping does not work. Can anyone help? Also, I built my shelter on a slope, could this be the problem?

After pressing Z your screen turns black for a moment.

If it's not the next morning, it means cannibals are nearby (that wakes you up).

If it is the next morning, it means no-one has disturbed you during the night.

So one has to go sleep at sunset time and one can still be woken up when cannibals come near the base? I just want to avoid the cannibals alltogether... work at day, be a sleeping pacifist at night.

Also, no matter how many times I kill these cannibals near my base... more and more of these man eating crazies keep on coming until they kidnap me to their cave or killed after that. I'd be licky if I escape. Not sure how this sleeping mechanism works tho. ;P

So true. You do NOT sleep when enemies are nearby. Build your home somewhere save and make sure no enemies are in sight when you attempt to go to sleep. Nothing more than that ;)

Ok, I finally found out my problem. (stupid warning): I bound the rest key to T (like skyrim) so in stead of z I just had to press t.....

Just build a BENCH its the best way to regain your strenght... Who needs sleep! Get out there!!

LMAO SewageMan? Do you suggest using a bench for almost everything? Theres more than the bench and definately plenty of different ways to play this game ;)

Bought a game about killing/surviving cannibals on an Island.. and you just want to be a pacifist and craft stuff?

you technecally do sleep when cannibals are near, but you only sleep for a little bit to regain some energy

Not yet. I just want to have time to build my place up and avoid the enemy until I have strong place to fight back in. It's not easy or fun when evening comes that as soon as you press "sleep" it doesn't let you becasue there's a cannibal 2-3 miles away from there ;P

Once I have a decent fort I will start hunting them. Well that's just my hope that I can.
