How to get zombie workers?

[Foragar]

I played Graveyard keeper for a while but I don´t know how to get Zombie workers. Please help.

Gerry will point you to main unlock, From there each zombie seems to take 10 faith and 1 Zombie Juice.

Pls note they are hotfixing the game currently as some have questline issues with the zombie unlocks currently.

[Foragar]

Ok thanks for your answer

[WIN]

Agreed. There are some issues with quest I think. One question though, why isn't my zombie alive? I used the zombie juice and a body, but the zombie helper isn't alive even when placed on a porter area.
Thanks

Are there boxes in the porter area? He seems to sleep in his cubby when there is no work to do. Also some of the jobs seem to be tech locked I think, but generally you place them at a station and give them a task and they will work.

hmmmm the porter area shows me possible stuff he can transport from what I can tell, you can check them or not. However, when I put my zombie worker in the porter cubicle, he just sleeps there, can't even retrieve him. Can't assign a task.

Sounds like a bug if you can't retrieve him, but might also require you to build the packer up top in the yard. Try that and see if you can grab him then. Or maybe pack a crate and pop it on the pallet there for a quicker check.

What's a packer? I can't seem to make porter places on other areas except in the quarry, how do I put my zombies to work in the farm?

[Arrek]

The Elevator/Packing place for the main yard. It allows the Zombie to pack goods into crates and send them to the basment porter area.

[WIN]

Ohhhh I might not have unlocked that yet. Still haven't completed the game hehe

zombies need to be assigned to a workstation, and not all workstations will accept a zombie. if you stand near a workstation holding a zombie, and get an '[E] Put' prompt, then the zombie can work there, and you can then use the craft option to set the recipes... results are send to nearby chests if room is available.

Porter stations so far appear to be part of the larger work areas, like the lumber yard in the northern area, or the packing factory down in the cellar tunnels.

I put him there and he does nothing. How do I get him to start making crates at the porter station?

I hate being that guy, but maybe just look up the definition of "porter" in the dictionary;

Porter zombies carry resources from the quarry/lumberyard to the main workshop, and crates from the cellar to the merchant depot. In the cellar porter area, you need to put crates onto the pallets and the zombie will carry them through the tunnel to the merchant.
If you have the crate factory in your workshop (that is, above ground in front of your house), crates build there will automatically be moved down, and then automatically picked up by the porter and moved to the merchant's warehouse.
