Pip-Boy

Pip-Boy 2000 Handheld Device.

The Pip-Boy 2000 Personal Information Processor is a small hand-held device, much like a PDA. Not to be confused with the Pip-Boy 2000 Plus, a wrist-worn model which is used by Chosen One, and Vault Dweller.

This device is capable of many useful functions, including:

• Archive menu is location that your Pip-Boy will save data received from any Holotape that may be read.
• Automaps renders terrain, stored in memory, of any location you visit.
• Status screen helps you to keep track of the following:
  • Hospital Visits
  • Timeouts: Cooldown timers such as First Aid, Doctor, Lockpick, etc.
  • Quests: A list of quests you've started. Click a quest in this list to see completion status.
    • There is a known bug when scrolling down the list of quests in your Pip-Boy; the quest titles are not bound properly to the data descriptions behind them, so if you scroll one quest down and click any quest, the description will no longer match - it will correspond to the next quest down (or up). This makes it appear impossible to access a quest's status once you have more quests in the list than the list can show without scrolling down. In such cases, it is possible to access a matching description, by only scrolling half way to the desired quest, and click whichever quest is on the bottom (or one above it). For more details, read this guide.
