I keep getting stuck and don't know what to do next. Need help/advice/nachos/something . . .

I don't build anything until i have guns. Because it's difficult to defend anywhere without them.

Melee only. Nomad around mostly heading tward 0,0 wasteland city. No bow no xbow. Stick and move killing as i go.

Wander and find bags/purses/trashpiles. Collect eggs/yucca/stones/sticks/wood. Collect anything i cant make later. If i don't NEED it right now and can make it later... Dump it. Scrap EVERYTHING possible.

Carry 20+ spikes for temp standoff if i need. First night camp anywhere i can find. House. Top of a hill. Stay crouched and half afk. If i can cook anything. do. Usually hit level 10 late the 2nd day.

Eventually get to the 0,0 city. Run right thru dragging most of them away. And then circle back. Hit and run and scout what buildings are in there. Kite/kill cops with spikes/melee until i get a gun. Repeat till i have a GOOD gun. Unload the ammo from any but the best weapon and scrap all the rest.

Hopefully wasteland city had a shotgun messiah/tool/bookstore. Loot that. If not take an apartment building and loot from the top down until i have forge/cement books.
3rd/4th day i'm well supplied. got a lot of canned food/eggs/water/yucca juice.
Start scouting for a location to build if i don't know one yet. Preferably just outside a city biome. Desert or plains but not far from trees.

Make a chest near my chosen location and dump everything but ax/gun/ammo/bandages/water/food. If i don't have forge/concrete. More scouting. If i do. Loadup on wood. Start building. Start forges. start fires. start making cobble/flagstone.

Hide/Ignore any zombie not touchin my stuff.

5th/6th day is mineing/building basic defense for the 6/7th day horde.
