General / I present to you start savescumming guide

There is probably more info you can get by skimming through the code. For specific coordinates of random locations you can consult the wiki or look through the code harder than I did.
For example I have no idea where to look for Hopperdrome but it doesn't matter since most people only care for Jet Eater Hunt (unique weapon)
1. Start a new game (pick difficulty, xp system, create character etc.)
2. After the intro export your character (saves time)
3. If you're playing on Dominating difficulty check your email to determine which quest you got (Arena Masters-"Master Skull Smasher"/IceT-"Domination")
4. Save your game and go back to Main Menu. Repeat the process until you have about 10 saves (or however many you want) (NUMBER THEM so that you don't lose count)
5. Go into your save folder and unpack your global.dat by going to underrail unpacker (same address as the build calculator) dropping the file and downloading the result
(for gog version it's My Games\Underrail\Saves\*\global.dat)
6. Repeat the process until you have 10 global.dat (you can name them like global.dat, global2.dat so that they correspond to your numbered saves)
7. Open them in a text editor (or any fancy software you have) and parse through the code by using CTRL+F and lines mentioned below
8. Pick the save you want knowing that you have wasted like 20-30 minutes of your life (it could've been like 100 hours ya know)

FIRST CHECK
- Email (Arena Masters/IceT)
for every save
THEN
Documents\My Games\Underrail\Saves\*\global.dat (or whatever it is)
underrail unpacker
CTRL+F these
gc_gypsy (2 INSTANCES) = Coral
dun_cc_stattoo (ANY INSTANCE typically 8 or sth idunno) = Booth
if neither = ability booster event
xpbl_ww_jetEater (2 INSTANCES) = Jet Eater Hunt quest
xpbl_ww_pretRat (2 INSTANCES) = The tracking device quest
frag_xpbl_ww_dragNDrop_location (...) = Drag 'n' Drop location
cvw1, cvw2, cvw3, cvw4, cvw5, cvw6 = Chancer's Bay
cvw8, cvw9, cvw10, cvw12, cvw30, cvw31 = Rig Periphery
cvw14, cvw28 = Core Ring Protectorate Outpost
cvw11, cvw13, cvw15, cvw16, cvw17, cvw18, cvw19, cvw20, cvw21, cvw22, cvw23, cvw24, cvw26, cvw27, cvw29, cvw32, cvw33 = Core Ring
dun_lowLevelBunker1,2,3,4... = random dungeons
dun_lowLevelCave1,2,3,4... = random caves
(this one is weird - it typically gives you one of each but combinations like 2/0 0/2 1/2 2/1 are possible
I THINK I have seen 3/1 and 3/0 before but PLS DON'T DO THIS TO YOURSELF MAN it's not worth it)
THE ONLY TRACE I COULD FIND FOR Scavenger/Camera quest
dun_wasteWater_corpseGender = Mushroom Cove scavenger quest
NO dun_wasteWater_corpseGender = Camera Problems quest
SIDENOTE
IF YOU HAVE LIKE AN HOUR TO SAVESCUM
You can farm ninja tabi (or any tabi boots) by talking to Old Jonas IMMEDIATELY AFTER switching zones from Level 9 - Cave Tunnel Exit and Docks to Crossroad Watch.
This works only at the start since entering the zone determines his store inventory. You can also get other items such as Waist Pack, various shotguns, LMGs
BUT keep in mind that they will be expensive and you will most likely not be able to buy them before his inventory resets. I have never seen him selling Large Waist Pack and you couldn't afford it anyway.
Now go and destroy your sense of wonder and discovery.
