I like this mod, its different from others with micro management. Everyone hyped so much for 2.2, me too.. but I'm disappointed issues still persist. I checked the site and moddb page but cannot find the actual change log. After playing 2.0, I can't say so much about difference. There is still things that makes me crazy.

First of all, repairing items still restricted to the durability. I'm instantly closed the game and changed all repair items parameter: "repair_min_condition" to "0.01". Because there is no other way to use - repair items you found (expect repair it with technician giving 10-20k+ rubles to him, so its nearly impossible). Looting is always been so hard and this restrictions make it worse, breaking the immersion of the mod.

Every weapon we find is damaged to hell and most of them have no ammo, plus degraded quality. I get it, game should be harder but we already giving tons of money to repair items, so there is no meaning to get so expensive repair items that technician does with enough money already. Further more, even the most expensive repair items doesn't repair heavy damaged weapons. Repairing - maintaining weapons is not that hard in real life unless parts broken beyond repair. For example you can restore 50 years old rifle with oil and stick (used metaphor here) and it will work like first day.

Dismantiling looks nice but I found no use other than selling them to traders and they don't give much money. All of the scraps gives 1% condition when used them as support repair item, its useless that way. Maybe I didn't understand how to use them yet so I skip this topic.

Now about cooking. There is tons of items stand on vendors but none of them selling one freaking lighter?!! are you serious? I know devs want us go to jupiter early but how it is possible really? if player won't do missions, escort want 10k rubles. What will player do while he heading to the missions? and its not possible to do tasks without proper equipment because player can't enter most of the dangerous areas - instant death. Really.. devs want us starve to death, yeah I get it but cooked food already contain radiation and player should use cigarette to save from radiation, that means lighter is vital for survival. (I know there is other ways around to get rid of the radiation) but why are you making it so hardcore? I mean, LIGHTER man..

One last thing that worth to mention, there is no way to clean moisture from scopes. Searched the web how to do it but didn't find anything usefull. All he has to do wipe the lens with cloth piece, its not that hard. Buying a new one is a little too much?..

The scope doesn't have dew on it, it has moisture inside it. You can't wipe that off.

I already read faq twice, it doesn't solve issues in topic also there is no change log there just newsletter.

didn't know about scope moisture is unfixable.

Also read the known bugs list. It explains how scopes are degraded (vanilla bug, unfixable). They can also be damaged in the field, but I've never noticed it. NPC's who take poor care of their weapons sometimes have good scopes, sometimes are using what they have which is damaged. They are not very expensive, you can buy another.

Either sell the items you find, or use the salvage feature to break them down and the parts to gradually repair the items.

I assure you it works and is profitable Moddb.com.

This is not real life, it is a game with game mechanics. We have enabled you to dismantle and salvage weapons, so you can either repair things to 25% or better (class dependent) and use a high end kit, or just keep using parts until it is fully repaired. Having pristine weapons, armors, ammunition constantly drop from corpses would not be in any way challenging and easy = no fun for MISERY fans.

Lighters just are not that hard to find and are fully explained in the FAQ. Use alcohol or drugs until you progress in the game and fins one on a corpse, or buy it.

If you play and pay attention, you will notice the changes. The team was too busy at release to delay release further writing a list of hundreds of changes.

Most stalkers don't carry high qual weapons since they know how to shoot them and thats about all they think they need to know

Beard sells lighters after you've done a couple of missions for him, so you don't have to go to the other map for Beard to start selling lighters.
