Living Off The Land...25 days, right?

[Wasteland Watcher]

This might be in the wrong section if it turns out to be a bug...

Anyhow, I'm on day 53 and know I haven't eaten any "civilized" food since day 10 or so... 

I've only eaten rabbit, wolf, deer, and bear meat. And a cattail or two. So I'm wondering why the LOTL achievement hasn't triggered?

Did you find and eat some raw fish or venison inside a building say a fridge or oven?  If so I think that resets the counter as it's not harvested

Did you consume any drinks other than water? The achievement isn't solely about food - drinking soda, coffee or herbal tea also disqualifies you.

Just wonder if using accelerant or medicines (not the natural ones) also break the achievement?

I haven't found any of that, but thank you very much for the info -- I was not aware of that

 Thank you very much--I was unaware that 'civilized' drinks such as coffee and tea also apply (I should have known!) 

I must've had a tea or coffee on day 33 because Living Off The Land just unlocked!

That's a good question! I'd like to know as well

Started a new run, stalker, and decided to make a run for both achievements "Living off the land"  and "silent hunter", and both directly from day 1.

Now I am at day 25 and I just got  "Living off the land". so I can confirm that accelerant & chemical medicine don't break the achievement.

 

We need more achievements like that, it's really fun^^

Indeed, Living off the Land deals with calories only. You get all the painkillers you want.
