Survivors Chart

This is a list of all the survivors — where you'll find them, what scoop they are part of, and what you can get them to do (like carry a weapon or just hold hands). Also included in this list are all of the Psychopaths, which is why it's called the People Chart and not just the Survivor Chart. For more information on locations, use your in-game map (below is what each store abbreviation section of the mall stands for).

The [B] option

When you stand next to a survivor you can interact with them by pressing B. Different survivors do different things — only some can carry weapons, for example, and others require you to carry them. This section of the chart tells you what each person will allow you to do:

Give — you can give this person a weapon or piece of food that they will eat. Survivors can only carry one thing at a time and will drop their current item when you give them a new item.
Hold Hands — you can hold this person's hand so that they travel alongside you. This is a mediocrely incorporated feature. Often if you make a quick movement or get in the midst of a zombie pool you will find your hand-to-hand link broken with your survivor, but it's better than just making them run for the most part.
Carry — these are survivors that you will be able to, and pretty much need to, carry on your back. You have no form of attack during this (just like holding hands), but you can run through most any zombie pool and be fine. Frank will just keep on going when he has someone on his back.
Shoulder — the intermediate of holding hands and carrying. This allows you to offer your shoulder to help someone out. This will not get broken nearly as often as hold hands does, which makes it superior to that, but it's still not quite as efficient as carrying because you're still two people wide, which makes it not as good as the carry. Still, a pretty solid way to get a survivor back with minimum hair-pulling.

Locations

Each location has a number if it's inside the mall — if you look at your in-game map and hover over a store you'll see the name and number. If the number starts with a 1 it's on the first floor; if it's a 2, it's on the second floor. Each one also begins with a letter:

E = Entrance Plaza
A = Al Fresco Plaza
W = Wonderland Plaza
N = North Plaza
P = Paradise Plaza
F = Food Court
L = North Plaza (why aren't these N's?)
