A bag holding caps.

Bottle caps are the standard currency in FOnline:2238. This is the only regular money in the wasteland. Its weight is 0, which means you can carry billions with you.

History

Bottle caps were turned into money in Hub, and that's why caps are sometimes called hubbucks. The reason why they were chosen as official wasteland money is that the technology needed to manufacture bottle caps and paint them has been lost during the Great War, which limits the number of bottle caps that would appear in the world. That limited number also ensures to preserve their value.

How to get some ?

You can earn caps by almost every way, and here are some examples.

  • NPCs can give some to you if you complete a quest.
  • You can shovel shit to be rewarded both xp and caps.
  • A successful town control will grant you a lot of caps.
  • Usually, human NPCs in encounters have a small amount of caps on them. If you loot their corpses, you will get them.
  • Trade with NPC merchants, selling items and getting their caps.
  • Trade with other players, selling them some of your items against some caps.
