Search Results
It was never brought up, but it shouldn't hurt to get some data and see average chances of a successful find during searching. Until it's clear about night time scavenging penalty, log only manual searches, auto-searches will have to wait.
Results of searches in Depleted Zones can be found at the corresponding talk page. Log here results of searches in non-depleted/replenished zones only.
Scavengers (day)
Scavengers are less likely to fail a search, thus should be separated from the rest. Factors:
- Basic search stats (non-depleted zones)
- Scavengers' search bonus
Searches | Items found | Recorded by (signature) |

<...> | <...> | TOTAL |
Non-Scavengers (day)
Anybody else than scavengers are supposed to have lowest find chances, might give a clue how scavengers' bonus is good. Factors:
- Basic search stats (non-depleted zones)
Searches | Items found | Recorded by (signature) |
<...> | <...> | <...> |
<...> | <...> | TOTAL |
Scavengers with Learned Camper status (day)
To see how Learned Camper impacts scavengers with their search bonus. Factors:
- Basic search stats (non-depleted zones)
- Scavengers' search bonus
- Learned Camper search bonus

Non-Scavengers with Learned Camper status (day)
To see how Learned Camper impacts non-scavengers. Factors:
