Syntax

{{Loot Container Note}}

{{Loot Container Note|<page>}}

Positional parameter (optional): The name of the page to produce customized text for. Not needed if it's the current page or if a generic text is wanted.

Usage

Used on a loot container page, {{Loot Container Note}} produces text customized to the specific loot container, which includes its name and only mentions glowing if it is a glowing container.

{{Loot Container Note|<page>}} can be used on any page to obtain the customized text for the given page.

Examples

Example 1: generic text

{{Loot Container Note}}

Produces:

Loot containers can be opened by any pawn capable of manipulation, excluding ghouls. Opening the container can be done either by selecting pawns or by selecting the container:

• With one or several pawns selected, right-clicking on the container shows an Open action in the context menu. Selecting it sends the pawns to the container where one of them will open it. This works whether pawns are drafted or not. Ghouls ignore the command and do not move with the others, even when drafted.
• Alternatively, selecting the container shows an Open command with shortcut J. Once the container is marked for opening, it will be opened by any suitable pawn assigned to Basic work. Selecting a pawn and right-clicking on the container will only work if the pawn is drafted or assigned to Basic work.
• Note that the Open command in the Orders menu does not apply to loot containers.

Opening a loot container takes 100 ticks (1.67 secs). The contents are dropped next to the container and the container's texture is changed to its empty variant. Glowing containers stop glowing when empty.

Example 2: non-glowing loot container
