Hi Revivers, let me introduce you to the Overseer!
What is the Overseer feature?
Players have an inventory and can pick up items from the map, place items back onto the map, and store them inside buildings.
They can perform various tasks such as cutting trees, planting food, and constructing buildings.
These actions take time, similar to the in-game characters.
This feature works similarly to games like Factorio or Satisfactory but from a third-person perspective. It’s optional, and players can choose whether to enable it.
How it works
You can turn the feature on by clicking on the Hand icon in the bottom middle of the screen. After enabling it, you’ll see an inventory in this spot.
You can use this tool either by clicking on the Hand button in the right window or by switching your cursor to the Overseer hand by pressing the Tab key and then performing actions while hovering over objects.
Pressing keys 1-9 on an English keyboard selects slots in your inventory.
You can delete items from your inventory by moving them into the bin.
Becoming a Super Mutant
With the Overseer feature on, you’ll become part of the mutant crew – a super mutant who can reach any spot on the map, have a larger backpack capacity, and doesn’t need to sleep or eat.
This feature is especially useful at the beginning of the game when you’re working towards automation. Once you manage job priorities for your crew, automate production lines, and construct excavators and trains, you won’t need to be as involved.
This is an automation game, so remember that your goal is efficiency, even though it’s fun to build everything yourself. 🙂
