Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/The Atomic Wrangler

The Atomic Wrangler is a former casino and brothel located in Freeside.

Background
Prior to The Fall, the Atomic Wrangler was the only active casino in Freeside. Run by James and Francine Garret, the Casino did a steady business with gambling and prostitution but the lion's share of its profits came from the sale of alcohol and illegal chems, a fact which caused no end of friction with the NCR and the Followers of the Apocalypse.

During the Freeside Rebellion, the Garret twins and their men aided the Kings and other rebels by supplying them with explosives from an old powder ganger cache and later in the wake of NCR summary executions, by staying behind to cover the evacuation of refugees from The Strip and Freeside. James Garret was mortally wounded in the endeavor and succumbed shortly after penning his last words.

Overview
The Atomic Wrangler, besides being heavily populated by feral Ghouls, can only be accessed through a concentrated area of the cloud. In addition, some parts of the building are irradiated, accounting for the Ghoul's presence - radiation will not longer be present, once the Ghouls have been neutralized.

Areas of Interest

 * Given it's sordid past, chems and alcohol are available in abundance, including a few doses of RadAway
 * James Garret's remains can be found behind the Atomic Wrangler's bar. He carries his last words, the buildings master key and the unique pistol Gambler's Pal
 * Some weapons and ammunition can be found on the lower floor behind hard locked doors, with the cashiers room being protected by a very hard locked door, but providing for food, drink and a large amount of chems in its containers, four of which are hard locked safes
 * The lower floor also contains drinkable toilets, albeit at 8 RADs, as well as both modifications available for the Gambler's Pal - the Custom Body in a bathtub in the ladies room and the Long Barrel in a wooden crate on a table in the kitchen.
 * There is no loot of note behind the average locked doors on the first floor
 * The second floor contains more weapons and ammunition, a bit of food and drink and chems and healing items. None of the beds seem to be usable, despite being marked as such. A very hard locked safe under a Queen Sized bed does not contain anything of note other than a Sledgehammer.

Trivia

 * Occasionally, leaving and re-entering the Atomic Wrangler (which includes going back and forth between different load zones inside of the building) will cause a group of Cloud Victims to spawn on the casino floor. They are not hostile and will carry on playing cards and conversing with one another.
