First-life guide and new-player protection

While the guide is active and its weapon objective remains unfinished, the second qualifying search of a different, untouched normal car trunk supplies a basic pistol if the generated contents do not already contain a firearm. This assistance ends when the relevant weapon milestones are met. Previously searched trunks and deposited or saved contents do not receive fresh guaranteed loot. This is a conditional tutorial rule, not the ordinary trunk rarity.

New-player protection lasts up to 75 seconds while its eligibility flag is active; ordinary spawn protection remains 30 seconds. Drawing a weapon preserves new-player protection, while attacking ends it. The guide tracks early lives to determine eligibility.

Completion rewards include a Water Bottle and Beans Can. Leave inventory space to receive them.
