Molotov Cocktails are a hand-made incendiary weapon which can be thrown by the player.

Usage

Molotov cocktails do not cause any damage upon impact. They will, however, spark a fire in its area of effect, allowing them to be useful for dispatching a medium to large group of zombies. Care must be taken though, as the fire created will spread and maybe even engulf the thrower in flames.

A lighter must be in the secondary slot in order to use it. After throwing, another molotov will be chosen as the current weapon if the player has one.

It is recommended to read more about the dangers of fire.

Crafting

Molotov cocktails can be crafted from a full whiskey bottle and a ripped sheet, or from a gas can, an empty bottle, and a ripped sheet.
