This War of Mine - Tips

Hungry
- Eat once every 2 days has same effect as eating everyday

Winter Fuel
- Build Hatchet - chop down furniture (during scavenge, etc)

Logistics
- Deploy a good combatant on the first scavenge, clear the area, then deploy another character with big inventory size to loot the items.

Efficiency
- Always cook raw meat with vegetable to save resources

Cooking
- On Crude Stove (for Improved Stove, you save Clean Water x2 and Fuel x1)*
-- Single meal
Canned Food = 15 < Raw Food + Clean Water x5 + Fuel x2
Canned Food = 15 < 9 + 5 + 3
Canned Food = 15 < 17
-- Double meal
Canned Food x2 = 30 > Raw Food + Vegetables + Clean Water x6 + Fuel x2
Canned Food x2 = 30 > 9 + 9 + 6 + 3
Canned Food x2 = 30 > 27
*without Bruno
-- Cooked meal cannot be stolen

Hospital
- Never steal or murder in hospital area, otherwise you cant heal your severely wounded character.

Glitch
