The Tent Kit is a simple camping shelter that can be pitched in any location. It gives a survivor a place to sleep away from home. It is the open, usable form of the Tent Kit (Packed).

It suits travellers and anyone setting up a camp in the wild. Its main strength is that it is lighter than a regular Tent. Its main cost is the same poor sleep a bare tent gives without bedding.

The kit is made by unpacking a Tent Kit (Packed). It sits outside the loot tables.

Using


Once placed, the kit is slept in like any tent. The tooltip says that an unpacked Sleeping Bag or a Mattress placed inside raises its Sleeping Comfort. Without bedding the rest is poor.

The Pack Tent recipe folds it into a Tent Kit (Packed). The packed kit is half the weight and can ride on a backpack's bedroll strap. Unpack Tent turns it back into a pitched kit.

The kit weighs 6, against 10 for a regular Tent. That saving makes it the lighter shelter to carry pitched.

The kit can also burn as fire fuel or tinder.
