The Gifu pumping sewage out of a septic tank.
Septic tanks (
: Lietekaivo) are a component of septic systems, which are used for partial sewage treatment and disposal when it's impossible to connect to main sewage pipes.
Partially treated sludge accumulates in the tanks over time. Because of this, they need to be emptied or pumped periodically, which is one of the player's possible jobs, since they are in possession of a Gifu, a septic vacuum truck.
The player can actually fall into the septic tank and drown, respawning at the graveyard afterwards if permadeath is turned off. Be careful not to walk over or into the septic tank while working around it.
Locations[]
Currently there are five septic tanks that the player can empty and get paid for doing so, they can be found labelled on this map. Here is a list of all their locations, including owners and internal numbers:
- Tank 01, owned by Kusenius. House near the Loppentie junction
- Tank 02, owner name unknown, possibly Tappi. In Peräjärvi, stand-alone house near Peräjärvi apartments
- Tank 03, owned by Ters. In Peräjärvi, house opposite the school building
- Tank 04, owner name unknown, it's Samppa's father. In Loppe, house opposite Fleetari Repair Shop
- Tank 05, owner name unknown, possibly Pahlanjuutana. In Loppe, house south of Fleetari Repair Shop
Trivia[]
- Audio files for a sixth septic tank owner call can be found in the game assets, though only five septic tanks are currently present in the game. An unused audio file also exists for a secondary phone call for Samppa's home west of Fleetari Repair Shop, where his father calls the player instead of him.
