All player attributes in My Winter Car and how to manage them

My Winter Car has a range of player attributes you’ll need to manage to survive the cold and build your project car.

The attributes are visible at the top of your screen, and each has its own meter. The idea is to keep the meters in check, and there are different ways to do so. This guide will help you understand them better so that you don’t run into unexpected problems when out in the cold.

All player attributes in My Winter Car explained

The table below has information about every player’s stats and attributes that will be visible on top of your screen. I have also added steps about how you can manage them efficiently.

Attribute	How it Works	How to Manage
Problem	Since you’re an alcoholic as per the lore, you’ll need alcohol in a routine fashion.	Drink beer or other alcoholic beverages. Drink water to keep yourself in control. Repeat for full recovery.
Hunger	Causes starvation	You will need to eat food. You can get them from Teimo’s Shop or Pub Nappo. Drinking alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages also reduces hunger slightly (but not very effective). You should eat when the Hunger meter is high, or after you have done physical work.
Stress	It can be fatal if left unchecked	You can drink coffee and grilled meats to reduce stress. Sauna sessions also work, as do chopping firewood. You can also swear by pressing the N key to reduce stress. Avoiding hangovers or fines will also help you manage your stress better.
Urine	Bladder fullness that will cause stress	Find a toilet and press P to urinate. Plan in advance if you’re working out for long hours.
Fatigue	Causes blackouts	The best way to manage fatigue is by sleeping on sofas or beds. Always rest in the indoor areas, as it can be pretty cold outside. Driving below 120 kmph will also slightly lower your Fatigue.
Temperature	Causes Hypothermia	Always wear dry and warm clothes along with winter gear. Stay close to heaters and fireplaces when your body temperature is low. Drinking hot beverages also helps, and you should always turn on the in-built car heater while driving.
Sweat	Happens if you’re overheated.	Don’t wear clothes that are too heavy inside rooms. You can also remove extra layers if you’re at a place where temperatures are normal.

Ultimately, some of the attribute meters can go out of control, especially if you’re doing jobs like that of a taxi driver. The table above has every bit of information you’ll require to bring these meters back to normal levels.

The Firewood Cutter, aka the Lumber Conveyor, is an exceptional tool if you’re looking to sell and cut Firewood in My Winter Car.

This item can’t be used on its own, and you’ll need to use the tractor to do so. However, the job is easier said than done, and this guide will help you become a woodcutter in a few simple steps.

How to use the Lumber Conveyor in My Winter Car

The first task is to connect the Cutter to the Kekmet. It’s impossible to move the Lumber Conveyor from its stationary position without attaching it to your tractor. Hence, drive the tractor carefully and place it very close to the Conveyor. Keep the distance as minimal as possible, or else the alignment will be loose, and logs will fall.

You’ll find the rear hitch lever on the right side of the Kekmet. Use it to lower the attachment arms from the rear of the tractor. Get down, and click the connection point on the cutter (once the attachment arms have been lowered). If aligned properly, the cutter will connect with the Kekmet.

Next, use the PTO lever located to the left of the steering wheel of the Kekmet. Activate it to start the sdrive shaft and the Conveyor. If you want the cutter to work fast, go for a higher RPM. However, that will be less conducive to a longer cutting session.

Once you have completed all the steps mentioned earlier in the guide, take a log from the wood pile. Then, place it in the cutter slot. The log will automatically split the logs into pieces based on how high the RPM is. The Conveyor will automatically place the Firewood in the trailer (don’t forget to attach it).
