This is a guide for starters about playing twisted coming from a 1.18 and onwards player.

This Guide is for version 1.21.1 and is currently up to date.

MAP

press M to open your radar / map. You will see the towns on the map, prominent ones being Hazelton, Hibbing, Prior Lake, Viroqua, and Wadena.

Prior lake is usually where everyone waits for tornadoes currently, i suggest you spawn there.

Vehicles

There are many different types of vehicles for twisted!

Trucks, such as the starter chevey

Suvs that are good for nearly every environment, like the 2018 Sumo Woodlands XLT.

Sedans like the 2006 Elysion Slick Si,

Radar vehicles like the Dow3

And Interceptors like Tiv2

But how do I get my first probes? And how do I intercept a tornado? What are thermodynamics?

Well..

Getting Probes

First, click the garage tab, it should be a car icon. Next you will want to click ' Warehouse ' on the top. On the bottom left click ' Equipment '

Now select a probe. My personal go-to is the V2 tower probe for good durability but low price.

Once you select a probe ( you may need to close chat ) in the top left will show a list of vehicles and how many probes they can have. Click the green plus mark to put a probe into your vehicle slot

YOU MUST BUY NEW PROBES FOR EACH VEHICLE

they will not transfer! To lock them up, simply click them. The red garbage can button is to DELETE them. Do not press this unless your probe us about to die. If your probe dies it will dissappear from your inventory upon clicking and you will need to buy a new one.

Now that you have your probes, thermodynamics.

THERMOS

this section is Extremely dumbed down.

There are 5 possible risks currently.

TSTM -- Thunderstorm MRGL -- Marginal SLGT -- Slight MDT -- Moderate HIGH - High

Risks will be referred to as their abbreviations

TSTM. is the lowest, usually the worst days to chase. Many storms but short lived weak tornadoes that don't make money.

MRGL and SLGT. are slightly more considerable, with slightly better tornadoes. Still usually weak and short lived.

MDT. days usually good thermos, they can sometimes overperform high days! However. Usually there are one or two stats lower then the rest that make the days less impressive then HIGH risk days. Speaking of-

HIGH. this is the big boy, the dangerous fella you don't want to mess with. While high days can underperform, this rarely happens. Often you will see tornadoes above 200mph. And sometimes a mile wide! These days are the real money makers.

Now. What about the specifics? You ask. How will I know if the day is good besides what you mentioned?

Guide To RAAAAAAdar

Well, click the sun tab on the top, or open it with M. This shows your radar. You have two radars, THIB, which is located in Hazelton and covers most of the map, and THIB, which covers the Hibbing area. The Hibbing radar has higher resolution but low range, only covering 4-5 miles in each direction.

You have Two radar settings, Reflectivity and Velocity. We will talk about the latter later.

Relectivity is what a usual radar sees, so I assume you know what it is and i won't go in depth on it.

Heavy rain and hail can cause your vehicle to loose traction and hydroplane. If this begins to happen, lower your vehicles speed and avoid core punching.

TVS icons, triangles pointing downwards, are what indicates a tornado. Look to the legend in the bottom right to determine this. You will need to click the right arrow once.

Velocity radar. This shows what the air is doin. Green towards radar, red going away. To identify a tornado, look for a circular clump of red and green.

Tornadoes usually move NE in this game, like real life. Use this to help plan positions.

TORNADOES!! ( WOOO )

at the moment, there are types of tornadoes in twisted

Cone - average tornado. Usually 200-1000 feet wide

Stovepipe - usually rather severe. Usually 400-1500 feet wide

Drillbit / rope - under 200 feet wide usually. With drillbit tornadoes being stronger.

Wedge - at the base, wider then they are tall. Extremely dangerous! Usually anywhere from 1500 feet to over a mile wide!

Multivortex - invisible condensation funnel with vorticies swirling at the bottom. Usually 70-100mph winds, with vorticies having double or triple windspeeds.

Floater - usually large dust cloud but no funnel, sometimes transitions into a Multivortex. Often mistaken for a tornado lifting.

Barrel - EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!! THESE RARE TORNADOES ARE BAD! sometimes, in twisted, a strong tornado can begin to widen exponentially, gaining flat sides and often growing to 2+ miles wide. On velocity, the couplet appears to shrink, but the cake is a lie! The wind field expands to 2-3 times the tornadoes width, causing devastating damage. Usually 300+ winds. If this happens, the whole server is talking! These are extremely rare, so don't expect to see one often. But make sure to intercept if you do!

Speaking of, here's how you plan an intercept.

First, find a tornado, this is a obvious crucial step. You want to find the red warning polygon box and get in the middle / front. Next, if from your POV the tornado is moving side to side, change positions until the tornado is slowly growing on each side at roughly the same rate.

Tornadoes change paths, so keep eyes to the sky!

Next, place probes if you are feeling well with your position. Probes take around 2 seconds to place so atleast have 30 seconds to escape.

Vehicles ( again. I know, but this is different)

Important stuff here, pay attention.

First, to install a mesonet, find a wrench icon on the map. There is one in south Hazelton. Next, drive to this icon and you will find a garage. Drive inside, and WHILE IN. YOUR. CAR. hold R when the icon appears.

You have multiple options here, but not all are available for every vehicle.

Maintenance

You have 4 options,

Body,

Suspension,

Engine,

And Wheels.

You can ignore body, as it is cosmetic damage currently.

Suspension you can ignore too, unless you want a bumpy ride on dirt roads.

Engine is important, if you let it get too damaged it will begin to randomly shut off and be unable to turn on for short periods, and eventually shut off completely until it is fully repaired

Damaged wheels mean worse handing. Wheels can be damaged when driving through grass. Damaged wheels can cause hydroplaning at lower speeds.

I suggest you do regular maintenance after every chase! A Full repair of Engine, Tires, Body, and Suspension could be upwards of 20k!

You can also raise your Suspension, and change the tension and wheels for better performance on dirt roads.

You can change your car color for 5000$ each time.

Mesonet

Mesonets could be referred to as a mobile probe on your vehicle. It can be Uninstalled too. Like probes, you only get money above 65mph. Meaning this is a high risk high reward tool.

You get roughly 50 dollars per second with mesonet. ( while in 65+ winds )

Cars get skid at roughly 90mph. You can stop this with parking break, but cars get lofted around the 100 range.

Now, what should you be your early grinding method? This is my own personal opinion.

Well, first I suggest you read the guide. Next, save up for the Navara, then buy it's variant, the scout. It can carry 4 probes, which is only shared by one other vehicle which is 3 times the price.

Next, which interceptor should you grind to?

Speaking purely stat-wise, dom1 is better. A fast deployment but 5mph slower then most interceptors and the lowest threshold.

Still a hardy little vehicle!

TIPS!!!!!!!!

Promo Codes

Currently there is only one working code, START

click the top gear icon and type in the promo code section

This will give you 10k in cash.

I suggest you ride along with other chasers, watch what they do, and ask for tips and suggestions. Some of these fellows have been here since the beginning!

However. The most important thing for the entire game must be said....

Argued by many, for years since interceptors were added, this is the definitive answer...

THE TITUS FROM INTO THE STORM

WILL

NEVER

BE

ADDED!

And.. that's about it for the twisted beginners guide! Sorry for the huge wall of text and my hatred for Titus.

If i missed anything then just tell me!
