What are all the ways to regenerate Action Points

die2nite

The Die2Nite wiki is still very incomplete, and the article on Action Points only mentions:

  • Food
  • Water

Both of which recharge your AP completely and can be used once per day for this purpose. However, I know there are other ways to recharge AP, like drugs. Can someone provide the full list of ways to recharge your AP. Please also list any additional benefits or disadvantages for each (e.g. drugs get you addicted).

Best Answer

So far, I know of the following:

  • Water. This only works once per day.
  • Food. This only works once per day. (Note, that some food, such as a Meaty Bone can cause an Infection which could get you killed!)
  • Drugs. Most drugs will restore AP to full, however, while under the influence, your forum posts will be affected, and there is a chance of addiction. Once you are addicted, if you do not take drugs every day, you will die.
  • Alcohol. This only works once per day. Drinking will refill your AP gauge, but it will inhibit your ability to perform some tasks, including searching, combat, and posting to the forum. The day after drinking, you will be hungover and unable to consume alcohol.
  • EMS System. This can only be used if you are not injured. Consumes 1 Battery, restores AP to 5, and instantly injures you.
  • Dice. Can be used once per day, small chance to restore 1 AP via scales and triples.
  • Cards. Can be used once per day, small chance to restore 1 AP via aces and queen of hearts, smaller chance of terrifying you.
  • Siesta Time™ (hero only). The basic version of this house improvement gives you a daily 33% chance of recovering 2 AP per day.
