Starter Guides For NewCityResidents

=Overview= '''Hello there juvenile, welcome to the city of NLACakaNM. Confused on how to survive here? Fear no more!'''

This starter guide is made with the intent to fully simplify your time visiting the city pre-enlisting, for however long you have plans of staying all while making sure you're not overwhelmed with the given info. Our way of life within the city can initially spook off those to stay under the roof of Juvie's Row and never again step out into the city of slime and endless gang violence. The guide itself will come off as sort of vague, this is intentional as to make sure one gets their basics of city survival 101 but there will be some detailed pieces throughout the guide. We're going to keep this (mostly) straightforward with the amount of junk presented. I (Land) highly suggest you read up on Commands and visit the Basic juvenile gameplay portion of the wiki if a certain piece is not covered here.

The intro
I'd like to first welcome you to the city of NLACakaNM, the city of both slime and 24/7 gang violence. It’s a great city despite the constant echoing gunshots you're probably gonna hear. Let’s jump into my tutorial though since that's what you're here for. You see that top channel up there (highlighted as green)? That’s your gameplay channel. Should say either downtown or Juvie’s row at this time if you really haven't moved around a whole lot or recently.

Within the top channel, you send any gameplay commands such as:

!goto, !map, !slime, and !data. Speaking of !goto, that’s how you move but you need to include a district name to it. You're gonna wanna type !goto (district) here to fully move around. That !data command should help out with updating your location if you somehow got stuck in a district. Inputting these commands in the channels highlighted under the black or darker green doesn't do anything ingame outside of display flavor text, this includes !scavenge.

Note:

At this time, new players get stuck often with arriving in new locations due to the bot barely registering them in the game.

The second part
Now, maybe you're thinking What are districts? They are the many unique locations that make up the city with some locations having some real name length to them too sometimes. They are viewable overall via !map. Since some district names are long, I highly recommend one should check out this site if you want a simplified name for them if you don’t wanna type out their whole name. This site will also be useful for later portions of the starter guide such as food locations, mines, farms, and even piers.

Second Note: Incase you get confused on which exact areas you’re scouting for these abbreviations, follow this next part. Scroll on down to a title that displays location references and points of interest. I’ll be referencing some parts of these two areas in some later portions of the tutorial as it's generally gonna make your slimey life alot easier.

The second actual part of the tutorial
Now second is your goal of the game, if you do decide to play of course, is getting that slime (FUCK YEA)

One has a few ways slime can be obtained at your current Juvie state which include:

Farming (you juvies got access to it only), Fishing, Mining, Scavenging, and Bartering (selling fish at the Speakeasy).

It should be noted that it's suggested one mines in either JRM (Found in Juvie's Row), CVM (Found in Cratersville), or TTM (Found in Toxington.

One is able to fish at the piers such as CLP (Crookline), TTP (Toxington), JPP (Jaywalker Plain), SEP (Slime's End), AFBP (Assault Flats Beach), and JRP (Juvie's Row).

Farming can exclusively be done in OGF (Ooze Gardens), ABF (Arsonbrook), and JRF (Juvie's Row)

With all this info thrown at you, here comes the MOST IMPORTANT PART. If you go below 0 slime in a combat situation, you die but if you reach 0 outside of a pvp situation, you’re most likely broke. And if you find yourself with a black name and see a channel known as  The-Sewers , simply type !revive and you'll arrive back at the land of the living. Reviving automatically sends you back to Endless War and not #Downtown directly.

Now onto scavenging and the concept of scavenging with captchas with them. Some players may get confused with this next part but no worries, you got me here explaining alongside this upcoming picture. You’ll come across those captchas when scavenging. Just do !scavenge to begin and then copy what the bot says but not in emote form. Here's what I mean specifically with this image:



Fourth Note:

To restart your scavenging, you want to simply type up !scavenge (without a captcha present) and you'll be set back to easier scavenging terms. If you do go far enough, you start getting gibberish and it gets complicated with length from there.

Now with these listed slime gain methods in mind, you should probably check up on your hunger every so often via !hunger. Hunger will increase from doing any of these related activities in varying amounts. A general footnote you want to make is that the higher the level you get, the more food needed to fill out hunger.

To get ahold of some food, visit these locations (also mentioned on the site provided if you scroll down enough):

Food Court, Red Mobster Seafood, Outside The 711, The Smoker's Cough, the Speakeasy, and the Bazaar sometimes.

The juvie lifestyle
Third, you, the juvie. Juvies (green role, sometimes dark green) cannot fight back against other players or raid bosses but can dodge them if you’re lucky enough. You're a walking slime bag basically for both. Fortunately for you, you got a way to avoid raid bosses (creatures which roam around the city such as Sex Rex, Green eyes slime dragon, Megaslime, and so on) which involves getting bodysprays via gbc (Glocksbury Comics).

Alternatively one can also wait for these mobs to move (they move every couple of minutes) and scout a district via !scout or !sniff. The second option also works the same as the first but is a alternate command for scouting, does the same thing essentially.

Going back to those bodysprays now, they're helpful in being immune to the raid bosses' attacks but not players unfortunately. Depending on the name/price will determine just how long the bodyspray lasts for. Some go about 15 real time minutes to a few real time hours but can get pricey slime wise. If you do die too then you got a natural bodyspray via the sewers that lasts about a three real life hours or until you strike first. We have about two more sections left to cover then this will conclude my Starter Guide (the simple edition).

The wanted status + zones
Now onto the wanted status, this role indicates if you’re killable or not. Wanted = killable. To get the wanted role removed, you need to head to a safezone. What exactly is a safezone? A  safezone is a place where one can afk permanently  without getting kicked into the streets and possibly killed. A subzone is sort of the opposite.  Subzones are temporary  in contraction to safezones with these opposite areas kicking you out if you idle in them for too long (about 45 minutes to an hour). This is bad since if kicked onto the streets when least expecting it you can most likely get killed by a player or raid boss. The exception of this subzone rule are subways and subway station due to how both areas have pvp enable but subways won’t kick you into a subway station. I’ll give some more examples now but keep in mind not every zone is stated here.

Safezones include:

Your apartment (once you meet the requirements for one but they’re a nice task to handle), Juvie’s Row, Rowdy Roughhouse, and Cop Killtown.

Some subzones include:

The food locations mentioned prior, cvm, ttm, abf, and ogf.

The duo gangs of the city
Found in the city of NLACakaNM, you got two gangs and only two of them. These are the Rowdy Fuckers (or Rowdys) and the Cop Killers (or Killers). They are represented via the loudness and party like spirit (rowdys) and represented via the quiet and vaping edgy attitude (killers). To join a gang, one should get a feel of the game beforehand as in know your stuff along with getting to know each gang’s vibe. You can get pardons if you wish to join another gang but usually you wanna take your time before you do this and jump ship to the other gang cough gangswapper.

Once this is vibe searching is finally done, ask for a vouch and then do !enlist (your gang choice here). You will need said gang voucher to be in the same location as you are which means the same district or zone. Bam, congrats you’re a gangster now. Word of advice prior to enlisting, know how weapons work and how a player can use them. You juvies cannot wield weapons or kill people but gangsters can via !kill @ (yes tag them). This logic also applies to others if they wish to join your gang.

=Conclusion (Finally)= And this concludes my tutorial here. I'll give out some very quick points here with my tutorial's ending:

•Never do !data in a public channel i.e. outside of the top channel or gang comms (once you enlist)

•Doing a !data in public is just asking for someone to hunt you down given some time

•Never give your soul to anyone. You can only lose your soul via !extractsoul and having it out. You can return it via !returnsoul but if you extract it, you can drop it at death

•Never do !harvest unless you want to be goof'd on, thank me later. At the time of you reading this, you probably fell for it.
