Travellers Rest – Starting Guide

A basic introduction to starting off your tavern, starring Umbra the Orc!

Getting Your Start in Travellers Rest

You’re interested in running a tavern? Let me introduce you to Umbra. He’s an Orc who used to go on adventures. After getting hurt, he decided to become a tavern keeper instead. Umbra will teach you how to run a tavern properly.

To start, describe what you look like to Umbra. You can use the customization screen to show him your appearance.

Next, we look at starting your tavern. You call yourself a tavern keep? This place is in shambles! Umbra will show you how to set the tables! Press B, to start BUILD MODE. Right click to pick up the table, left click to put it down. If you forget, you have tooltips to the right and left of your cursor.

There we go! Now see the book on the left side of the bar? Get close and click it! Right click the items to move them from inventory to the bar. Hold on to yer keg. That one we put to one of the taps. Just click one and place the keg. We are done. We press O to OPEN.”

We see first guests coming in now.

We now serve drink and food. Click on the customer to serve them, and watch them enjoy your tavern. Tooltips are always there if you forget. We do quests now. Panel on the left. Don’t keep the patrons waiting!

Years of experience taught Umbra how to spot things that are out of place. In these difficult times he can use his super vision by pressing Z to spot stains that he can fight we the use of his trusty mop. Nasty humans, blegh! So dirty!

Serve your customers well, and they’ll give you more reputation and money. This will allow you to unlock the crafting room in the back of the tavern. When we run out of stuff. We go to the back of the tavern where we cook and brew.

When we run out of ingredients, we send letters to merchants.

One day we grow our own. Umbra too young to grow crops like old man for now but like to dig.

Sometimes they get drunk and angry, so they get face slapped with a mop! Can’t have those unruly patrons ruining your reputation!

Our reputation grows. We get new things. We unlock new skills, recipes and items. We can live such life and rest well. Our tavern will soon be so great that patrons will want to spend the night! Perhaps we build them rooms? Wait and see!

Useful Tips and Info

Note: If you are hitting the open key (default key binding O) accidentally, it might be helpful to change it to something less likely to be struck by accident (suggestion: F2).

Tutorial FAQ

I accidentally turned off the tutorial, is there a way to turn it back on?

• Unfortunately, no, you’d need to restart to start it.

Can you turn off the tutorial once you’ve started it?

• No, but I do suggest completing it as you don’t have to pay for quite a few things. Plus, some things may be a bit confusing and it does honestly help.

I already completed this step, why is the dialogue box in the upper right corner still there?

• The box can be confusing, but it’s mainly more of a reminder rather than telling you what to do. You’ll need to press H to open up the Quests and follow what that says.

Help! I don’t see anything when I press H, am I done with the tutorial?

• At the moment, yes. The next tutorial will pop up when you get to it.

I can’t leave the tavern! Help!

• This is intentional. You need to keep doing the tutorial Quests until you earn the copper axe, this will allow you to leave the tavern.

Known Bugs

Yikes, but it happens! Most of the time, when you close out of the dialogue box, it will pop up again. It happens, just ignore it (or you can keep closing them, your choice)

Sometimes, even when you’ve completely finished the tutorial, the dialogue box will still continue to pop up. This is just a “stuck” graphical bug. Restarting the game (after you’ve saved the game of course!) fixes this.

Tutorial Tips

• You won’t need to buy anything other than a calendar and access to the kitchen, the tutorial will give you everything else.
• You will need a total of 1 Gold 20 Silver, no more than that.
• The tutorial mentions buying the bed and bowl for the cat, this isn’t necessary to complete the tutorial.

Coin System

The coin system works as follows:

• 100 copper turn into 1 silver.
• 100 silver turn into 1 gold.
• Up to 999 then the gold is denoted as 1k 1.1k and so on.

Your money should look like this if you’re two coppers away from 2 gold:

• 1 gold 99 silver 98 copper

After 12 coppers it’ll be:

• 2 gold 0 silver 10 copper

This is a list of current crops and their relative attributes:

Local Coop & Controller Help

Having some trouble setting up or using local coop? perhaps just having controller issues in coop?

Setting up Remote Play Together:

• Launch your game.
• Make sure your friend is logged in to Steam from a supported device.
• Open your Steam Overlay in-game (Shift+Tab).
• From your friends list, right-click your friend and select ‘Remote Play Together’.
• Once your friend accepts the invite, they will be in-game with you.

Notes:

• This is NOT online coop, however, Steam Remote Play allows local coop to be played online, until online coop is added, the game will be split screen for coop, regardless if it’s done through Steam Remote Play or not.
• Both players cannot use keyboard and mouse. One must be using a controller. However, both players can use controllers.
• The game will produce a chest for P2 for when P2 logs off.
• Alternatively, you can use Parsec instead of Steam Remote Play, if you prefer.

Common Problems/Issues

Why does one player control the other players actions?

• Make sure that your brand of controller is selected in the steam settings (picture attached), this should be done in the host’s settings.

But I can use my controller just fine in other games, why is it just this game that causes issues?

• While I can’t say exactly why, the only current fix around it is to make sure the settings are correct (promise, this fixes it more times than not).

Thank you for your time and I hope this little tutorial was helpful to you.
