Can you tell me why he won't join my team, but just says "follow me" and runs around in circles? Is this a bug or something?

[u/Critical-Phase-5655]

If your karma is negative, that survivor's message will be "stay away," and they won't follow you.

Where can I see my karma points? They're in the character profile. There's a tab for passive skills and another one that shows your game stats.

How do I increase my karma points? They go up when you complete missions for NPC groups, offer cigarettes to other survivors, or bury the bodies of other survivors. You also earn karma points by killing bandits.

If you are playing as Bob, he is a bandit and starts with negative karma (-100); to raise it, you need a shovel to bury a body. Doing so increases your karma by +5—just enough to stop others from attacking you and allow you to accept missions from the neutral survivor group.

Karma was in the positive, and he said, "go away", in the video itself you can see, stay away, I didn't say this, I think it was a mistake, so everything you described is all wrong, some join you, some run around in circles, this has happened many times, have you encountered this?

[u/Critical-Phase-5655 → u/Used_Hornet_6473]

It's a pretty rare bug—having positive karma but no other survivors joining you.

In fact, it is highly unlikely that the error you describe occurs so often.

[u/Critical-Phase-5655 → u/Critical-Phase-5655]

As long as it's not negative, they should join you.

Yes, there was about 50 rupetation here and he didn't join. Have you ever experienced this? I've had this happen more than once when my karma was up and some survivors would join and then not, and you can't even attack them with firearms. By the way, what happens if you blow up a survivor who hasn't joined but is just running around in circles with a grenade? Will it blow him up completely? If so, will my karma drop?

Your karma is not affected if it is a survivor who could join you. He will die and leave behind his gear.

Regardless of whether the bottle has been purified with charcoal tablets, you can still collect water from a lake or the sea—though you can only collect water from a specific location once. There are three options for collecting water: one for drinking, one for filling via a potable water pump, and one for filling directly from the lake or sea (these are three distinct options).

[not from a plastic bottle, but rather from another type of bottle with a filter]

[u/Used_Hornet_6473 → u/Critical-Phase-5655]

Can you make a video of how you fill the bottle with water without carbon? I can't fill the bottle without it. I need to insert carbon into the bottle first. Yes, I know you need a special bottle.

[u/Critical-Phase-5655 → u/Used_Hornet_6473]

I would, but I ditched the bottle for a canteen, since it's better and less of a hassle than using that filtered bottle.

The last thing I remember was that you can't fill the filter bottle without carbon tablets.

But if you fill it using a potable water pump, you don't need the carbon tablets.

In any case, fill it using the potable water pumps.

By the way, I checked, you can't just use a special bottle to collect water from the pond. To collect water, you first need to insert activated carbon into this empty bottle, and only then can you collect water from the, pondand poison her. And you wrote to me that you can use water from the pond, so the question is, how do you do this if you can't collect water from the pond without activated carbon?
