Caps
Caps are a in-game currency used to buy most items such as props or consumables from Venders.
Types of Bottle Caps:
A single bottle cap adds 1 cap to your overall cap count.
A bag of bottle caps adds 3 - 5 caps to your overall cap count.
A box of bottle caps adds 10 - 20 caps to your over all cap count.
All cap types can be collected on the Wasteland map anywhere.
Bottle Cap Spawn Rate:
Several single bottle caps spawn on the Wasteland map at a time, once a player collects a cap, another cap spawns in a different location. Single Caps spawn no matter how many players are in a server.
5 bags of bottle caps spawn on the Wasteland at a time, once a player collects bag, another bag will spawn in a different location. Bags of Caps start spawning when there are 30 or more players in a server.
1 box of bottle caps spawn on the Wasteland at a time, once a player collects a box, another box will spawn in a different location. Boxes of Caps start spawning when there are 200 or more players in a server.
Bottle Cap uses:
Vendors sell items that you can buy for caps. You can also sell items back to the vendors for caps, but always at a discounted price.
You can donate/give caps to other players using the in-game "Transfer caps" and "Trading" function. You can give up to 1 cap, or even all of your caps using this function.
Trivia
- Legacy caps used to be a holdable item and an in-game substitute of modern caps, but they were later removed. They're no longer obtainable, but you'll find players selling them for a high price. If you're buying one of these caps, they are not storable items so have a skin ready. Note: Because they are not storable, you can't bring it to other servers
- The Ashes.Town Discord Server has a Market Place for players to buy and sell used items for a desired cap amount.
