Hunger, food and hydroponics [Update]

[p]The new update adds hunger for the crew members. And, accordingly, food that can be eat to satisfy hunger. Food can be bought or grown in the Hydroponics module.[/p][p][/p][p]Character hunger:[/p][p]The hunger system is not made straightforward, but with some logic: first, the crew member's satiety points are reduced (from 100 to 0), after which the character is applied the state "hunger level 1". Hunger of the 1st level is the initial stage of hunger, and does not cause damage to the character. Then, after a few minutes, the hunger level will rise to 2, where the character's movement speed will be slightly reduced (in the future, there will be more debuffs on accuracy and morale). At level 3, the character is already slowing down quite noticeably. At level 4, the character will begin to receive rare damage. At level 5, damage will be dealt even more frequently.[/p][p]Note that hunger is not able to completely kill a crew member, but can only bring his health to 20%. [/p][p]To feed a character, you need to put some food in his inventory and he will automatically eat. Or give him the order to "eat" manually.[/p][p][/p][p]Food:[/p][p]There are different foods in the game (apples, wheat, protein, cookies). Each food has its own parameters: apples do not restore satiety well, but they have an average healing effect, while protein or wheat restore satiety well, but they have a small healing effect, also eating them lasts longer. Well, the actual food varies greatly in price. Protein is cheap and useful (it costs little, but it restores a lot of satiety)[/p][p][/p][p]Food production:[/p][p]Currently, the hydroponics module is used for food production (growing plants in an artificial environment without using soil). Hydroponics has a relatively long production cycle, but it produces relatively many foods at a time.[/p][p]A new crew member, a biologist, was also added. It can service the hydroponics module, which gives a very significant growth rate bonus. He also can to provide medical care.[/p][p][/p][p]Growing wheat[/p][p](the process is accelerated for visual)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Soybean growing (protein)[/p][p]It grows about twice as fast as wheat, while consuming almost half as many ingredients (water, nitrogen)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Growing apples[/p][p]The longest growing process, a lot of ingredients are consumed. But apples are much more costly than soybeans or wheat.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Another way to produce a food[/p][p]Synthetic protein - this can be produced in a chemical reactor (a crew member - process engineer is needed for working the chemical reactor)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Yum-yum animation:[/p][p]When a crew member (in a spacesuit with a helmet) is in a safe place - for example, on board a ship, in a building or on a planet with a normal climate - he will take off his helmet and eat like a normal human. If hunger has caught your brave and cool space marine somewhere on an airless planet, then you will not be able to take off your helmet to have a snack - and he will eat through his helmet (food airlock), this noticeably slows down the snacking process by about 2 times.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Stock up on provisions and organise snacks on time. Feed your crew to make it work to the fullest![/p]
