How to use this page
Treat urgent rows first — blood loss, hemothorax, sepsis and brain damage kill faster than hunger. When in doubt, open the vitals page and check which meters are in warning or critical. Pair this with the getting-started guide for crafting order and layer prep.
Urgent — treat immediately
Apply a tourniquet to the limb (not head or torso), then dress wounds with antiseptic bandages or liquid.
- Liquids:
Antiseptic- Watch:
- vitals — Blood volume
Sepsis
UrgentEmergency antibiotics and antiseptic care on every affected limb. Monitor blood pressure and temperature.
- Watch:
- vitals — Septic shock, Body temperature, Consciousness
Internal bleeding
UrgentInject procoagulant. Watch blood volume — internal bleeds drain fast without treatment.
- Liquids:
- Procoagulant
- Watch:
- vitals — Blood volume
Use a chest drain on the upper torso — bandages alone will not clear fluid from the pleural cavity.
- Items:
Chest drain- Watch:
- vitals — Blood oxygen, Blood volume
Low blood oxygen
UrgentCheck for hemothorax or lung injury first. Liquid relief (LRD) can help breathing while you treat the cause.
Brain damage
UrgentProtect the head with a helmet before further impacts. Braingrow injections can reverse early damage.
- Items:
Makeshift helmet- Liquids:
Braingrow- Watch:
- vitals — Brain health, Consciousness
Treat soon

Treat soonRemove fragments if possible, disinfect the site, then bandage. Breaking windows without protection often causes these.
- Items:
Plastic bandage- Liquids:
- Antiseptic
Fractured limb
Treat soonStabilize with a splint or plastic bandage before moving. Pain slows you down and worsens mood.
- Items:
SplintPlastic bandage- Watch:
- vitals — Consciousness
Fractured ribs / torso
Treat soonPlastic bandages stabilize the chest. Avoid heavy encumbrance and further impacts.
- Items:

Infection (limb)
Treat soonApply antiseptic, antibiotics, or antiseptic mush to the limb. Untreated infections escalate to sepsis.
- Items:
Antiseptic mush- Liquids:
- Antiseptic
- Watch:
- vitals — Septic shock, Body temperature
Radiation sickness
Treat soonTake antirad as soon as possible. Shift-hover barrels before drinking — irradiated water is labeled clean.
Low mood / Last Stand
Treat soonEat, drink clean water, sleep if safe, and use mood stabilizers. Geofruit and Naptails help early.
- Watch:
- vitals — Hunger (nutrition), Thirst (hydration)
Routine care
Minor cuts & scrapes
RoutineClean with antiseptic before bandaging — dirty dressings raise infection risk.
- Liquids:
- Antiseptic
- Watch:
- vitals — Blood volume
Dirty / contaminated wounds
RoutineDisinfect before dressing. Oil, sewage, and environmental liquids on wounds accelerate infection.
- Liquids:
- Antiseptic
Pain (severe)
RoutineMorphine or bruise kits reduce pain enough to keep consciousness up while you treat underlying injuries.
- Items:
