Title: Playing with friends?
Post by: FireCat on March 10, 2013, 11:30:08 pm
I'm new to FOnline and I was wondering if it's possible to travel around the wasteland with other players. Are there any commands or a group lists you have to add them to?

Click on the person who is supposed to lead the group (usually it's the person with highest charisma)
and hold mouse button, choose icon with arrow and 3 people. It will tag the player as leader. Stand
near the player when the player will be exiting location, a window will pop up with question if you
want to follow. If you click ok you will travel as a group.

Note the leader cannot move on the world map unless he has enough charisma to lead.
You can lead the amount of your charisma take one.

Since your new, you could give the wiki a read. Also searching the forums is a good idea.

If you don't have any charisma, get yourself a beer. It gives +1 CH.

Original post by a player whose username is "FireCat", and replies by people with cat avatars. This must be a conspiracy.

To offer some help myself, beer as Senocular said gives you a +1 bonus to Charisma, and also Mentats give you a +2 bonus. Both effects can be combined and for a nice +3.

Alternatives are using a leader character or sending distress signals.

If you're playing in Real Time and your party gets into a random encounter you want to go out from, all members must stay close to each other, move to the exit grid and let the leader get out first, so that everyone else gets the "Do you want to follow..." sign. If a non-leader leaves the map, he'll be alone in the worldmap and will be lost, but you can regroup using radio distress.

If you're playing in Turn Based, there is no way of getting out of an encounter as a group, instead each member of the party will have to leave individually. And after everyone's out, you will have to use distress signal or meet in a nearby location (which could be risky, depening on the location).

So having a radio on you just in case is a wise choice. Also note that while Combat Helmets Mark II have radios in them, they *can't* send distress signals.

If you don't understand something, look for the info in the wiki.

Maybe all those cat avatars depends from the fact we are playing a sort of Hello Kitty online
