When you have created your character you're ready to begin your adventure in Paralake. You will spawn at the City Hall, we strongly suggest you complete the tutorial before doing anything else as it helps you learn the game much more and it only takes around 10-15min.

How to access your Inventory and Money. Check hunger, Thirst, Stamina and Health
Hold to check how much money you have on you, as-well as some statistics such as, health, hunger, thirst and stamina. The money shown here is the money you have in your pocket but there are ATMs across the city where you can deposit and withdraw your cash. There are gas stations in the city which you can buy food, drink, phone and a flashlight. These are some good items to have, water can also be purchased at any gas station however that is optional but it increases your health and is definitely recommended.
Type | Description |
---|---|
Health | This changes when you take damage, it regenerates on its own (affected by the regeneration gene) or you can use a STIM pack to heal yourself, but you won't have those just yet. |
Hunger | This will decrease as time goes by, to get it back up, eat food. When your hunger hits "extremely hungry" your vision will become blurry. |
Thirst | This will decrease the more you move around and your character gets exhausted. |
Stamina | This decreases as you run around, it affects your regeneration and means you cannot run as fast, or at all. To get this back up, drink water. |
Armour | This can only change if you go on a government job such as Police or Secret Service. |
Carried Weight | How weight your character can carry. |
Spawned Props | How many props you can spawn in(You can make an F6 in game and ask for extended props if you are running a shop). |

A crowbar is mainly used when raiding or breaking into cars however can also be used to break cuffed players, clamped cars and break someone out of a police car. It's very loud and can be heard from far away. If a door has an alarm and gets forced open by a crowbar it will send a 911 message about the door being broken into and an alarm will go off in the property. | |
A lockpick is mainly used when raiding quietly or freeing a cuffed player doesn't make a loud noise however it can be heard if someone is close enough and you are unable to move when you start lockpicking. If a door has an alarm there is a chance when the lockpick slips that the alarm goes off, if you lockpick a door successfully the alarm wont be triggered and a 911 message won't be sent to the police. |
Information on Levelling Up
Your skills level up as you play, they've pretty self-explanatory, for example; your stamina skill will level up from running around a lot. The only skills that I imagine will raise confusion are the firearms and woodworking skills that level up from crafting, which we'll go into later.
