How to Sleep in ZERO Sievert and Other Tips

How to Sleep in ZERO Sievert

You can sleep to quickly restore fatigue in ZERO Sievert. To do so, you can simply choose any bed at the Bunker. You get to choose how long you'd like to sleep as well. Note that time still passes - as it should - while you're at the bunker.

Extra Tip: For me, I really dislike scavenging at night, so I'll go out of my way to make sure my character sleep through the night.

How to Switch Ammo Type?

Press Y and use the mouse scroller to scroll through the list of ammo types you have. Then, - and this is important - press Y again to confirm the change. Note that your character will have to reload the gun while changing the ammo type, so make sure you're in a safe place and not in the middle of a firefight where the enemy might just be one corner away from putting multiple bullets through your body.

How to Repair Gun or Armor?

You'll need the corresponding repair kits to do so. That said,  - and this is something that I do not agree with - the amount that will be repaired as stated in the tooltip of the kit need to match the amount repairs the weapon or armor need. So, if your repair kit can repair up to 60% but the weapon/armor is at 25%, you can't use the kit on it. 

Needless to say, I'm vehemently against this kind of design. Why the hell can't I just add 60% of durability to my 25%, right? It's just mind-boggling!   

Other Tips

1. First thing you do every time you head to a location is to mark the extraction points on your map using the custom markers. Personally, I prefer to stick around the area near to an extraction point in case I needed to make a quick getaway.
2. Friendlies or not? Since there's really no way to know for sure, don't assume. Make sure the NPC sees you while you dodge in and out of line of sight. If they immediately start shooting, they are the enemy. Note that you can shoot friendlies in this game, accidentally or otherwise, and if you don't want to do that, you can try this tip out.
3. Using sleep to change the time just so you don't have to scavenge during the night, which can be hard to see.
4. You can complete quests even if the quest items needed are in your stash and not in your inventory.
