Upgrading the Backpack requires Leather hides and Rope.
#Radiation island string upgrade#
I like to upgrade my Backpack as soon as possible so I can carry more stuff. The bottom two slots are where your finished products come out. Coal, Wood, or Twigs can be used as fuel.

To use it, put your meat or ore in the top-left compartment of the Furnace, and put your fuel in the top-right compartment. You can use Coal to make ammunition, and as a source of fuel for the Furnace. Using Wood or Twigs in the Furnace creates Coal as a byproduct (very handy). Not only does the Furnace cook meats, but it also creates refined Iron and Lead from iron and lead ore, and Glass from Sand.
#Radiation island string how to#
Tap on any item you see in the crafting menu to find out how to make that item. Tap on the Furnace, and it will show you what you need to collect in order to make it.

To find out how, open your Crafting Menu and find the Furnace. How do figure out how to craft anything? Say you want to cook your meats. You find a lot of food - Fish and Raw Meat that you can cook in your Furnace to make meats go about 3-4 times as far. You end up making ammo from time to time. Once you get to a certain level of advancement, you tend to find more loot and need to craft less, because you're going into strongholds, pillaging the crates you find there, and taking from the bodies of the undead you've slain. The Iron Ax can also be used to mine ore. The wolves that are getting you now will be easier to handle with an Iron Ax, easier still with a Titanium weapon, and best of all with a ranged weapon like the Boomerang, a Bow or a gun. Some things you may not end up making because you either found them or found some other way to do things I never made a bow, I found it in a crate over at the cement ruins by the first cabin.

You see that there is a progression of things that you need to do or make as you advance in your tool technology.
#Radiation island string free#
How do I use my bare hands if I'm already holding something? In the quick slots or in the backpack, tap on the item you're carrying in order to free your hands of it. You can use your bare hands to get Twigs from trees and Fiber from big plants. You can find Twigs and Flint lying on the ground, and you can also get Twigs from hitting trees with your bare hands. Tap on the Stone Ax in the Crafting Menu to see what it takes to make that - not much I think only some twigs and some flint. Here's how to go about Crafting it - To harvest the wood that you'll need for the Iron Ax, you'll need to use a Stone Ax on a tree. You can also find Fiber as an item that zombies drop after they've been killed. To harvest Fiber, hit the bushes with your bare hands (using the attack button), or with a Machete or other blade that you make or find. String - Made from Fiber from the bushes and large plants (plants between grass size and tree size). You can then use Charcoal as fuel to smelt and cook, and later you can use it as an ingredient of ammo.

The Furnace also produces Charcoal as a byproduct of burning wood. The Furnace is great for cooking meat to make it go MUCH farther, for smelting ore and making Glass from Sand. To make the Furnace you'll need Stone, Flint and another material. Iron - Use the Furnace to smelt Iron Ore found in iron rocks that you mine with a Pick, which requires 2 Flint and 2 Wood. Wood - Chopped from trees (you need to make the Stone Ax first, see below). You'll need to have Wood (4), Iron (3) and String (2): Let's say you are going to make the Iron Ax, because eventually you will. You can't craft everything immediately you'll have to craft some basic tools in order to get the materials to craft more advanced tools. Some you will make (craft), some you will find, and some you'll take from enemies. You're going to need some tools and supplies to survive. If you go to the crafting menu, you can tap on a given item there to see what materials you need to possess in order to make that item.
