Currently Under Review
Downtime is an optional process but it does provide several options to improve your character and make your own life a little more comfortable at events.
After each event you will need to contact the game team and let them know how you intend to spend your downtime. All available downtime actions have a cost in weeks, there is a total of 8 weeks available between each event. Please give as much detail as you can. The game team are happy to have conversations on our Discord to hammer out details of more complex actions.
Finances
Before anything else happens you will need to organise your finances. If you do not submit downtime the game team will do this part for you.
- Pay lifestyle (see this page for details). The game team will default to the Basic lifestyle unless you can't afford it.
- Service debts. You must pay a minimum of 20% off any accrued debts or the Bar will come for your knees. If you cannot pay you will need to make an arrangement with the Bar that you might not like. You can always pay extra. The game team will default to 20%
| Activity | Description | Cost in Weeks | Other Costs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Making Food | Food can either be grown or 3D printed. Enough is produced to feed one person for the full 8 weeks of downtime, with enough leftovers for people to bring their own food at eat at the next event. Grown food is vegetables and fruits, printed food is meat, cheese, pasta and bread. Players can team up so they both at events. Players should not be eating anything ic other than what the Bar provides if they have not taken this action. | 1 week | 50c per person |
| Crafting | Please see the currently available recipes for details | As per recipe | As per recipe |
| Research Project | Characters may wish to develop a new crafting recipe based on known science, or expand the database of known science ready for future recipes. Projects can be quite generic (what does X anomaly do and why) or quite specific (can I adapt what we know about anomaly X to make a ray gun). Speak to a ref with your ideas | 5 weeks | Varies, usually nothing |
| Guard Duty | The Bar will pay people 400c a week to do guard duty at the Bar. | 1 week | nothing |
| Scavenging | A character can go through old buildings, the sites of gunfights or anything else they find. This will yield a small amount of credits and occasionally some fancier loot. On average, scavenging yields far less in credits than guard duty | 1 week | nothing |
