Cleaning out the place is a storyline task that is assigned automatically towards the beginning of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha standalone mod from v1.4002. It was known as "Cleaning" between v1.4002 - 1.4005.


The guy who, according to Sidorovich, saved me decided to use my help cleaning the place from local animals. Well, let's see if I still know how to use the shooter!
- Detailed task information, v1.4007

Overview[]

Notes[]

  • Between v1.4002 and 1.4005 the mission was named "Cleaning" and the player always had a knife as part of basic equipment. This is not the case in v1.4007 (the player will need to buy it later) and as partial compensation for this is gifted with a Shotgun.
  • Unless exceedingly lucky during the Find the artifact (Cordon) precursor (and another saleable artifact was found and sold and a Knife bought) this mission will revolve around gun skills.
  • The player only has a Leather jacket and zero remediation capability for radiation contamination other than that of the physics of the player's actor (trans - very slow, if you get a dose you probably die)
  • Nor will the player benefit from craftily robbing a local basement for a Cossacks vodka - the property set of this item has altered and no longer cures radiation poisoning.
  • Just do the mission:

Mission Parts[]

Follow Proverb[]

Kill the first mutant accumulation[]

Talk to Proverb[]

Follow Proverb[]

Kill the second mutant accumulation[]

  • Talk again, receive your bins, move on.

Notes 2[]

  • There is opportunity to loot body parts during all of this.
  • Sometimes (startlingly often) some of the Boar end up dying in a hotspot. If looted, the player may receive a fatal poisoning overdose.
  • On the way back to either the "Novice" or Sid, west of the wagon where the Blind Dogs congregate later, a small cutscene involving a Flesh and a Whirligig plays out. The player may manipulate this cutscene if a suitable save is made as detailed in Artifact Spawns.
  • The cutscene only plays out once, no mutants or NPC ever revisits the area and the coding for the anomaly is only to spawn Stone Blood, Meat Chunk or Devil's guts or their renamed analogues. Only the latter is of practical use to the player.

Trivia[]

  • A mission that evolved or devolved with LADC progression.
  • The mutant infestations respawn later on. Sidorovich gives repeatable Side Missions to eliminate them.
