Dung

Postby Spillages » Mon Mar 05, 2007 8:41 pm

I think fresh dung should automatically pile up in the inventory with out hunting. like 1/10 of what you eat should be converted to fresh dung.

you mean you want Cantrian waste to appear in your inventory, rather than from the animals?

I think the dung used in burning includes a lot of fibre due to the plants the animal has been eating. I doubt human dung burns that well. Human shit can be used to extract methane, you need a big tank where shit goes and the gas is gathered and refined and used for cooking.

Why would a person want to be forced to drop dung each day? Then again, so they do irl as well. But you wouldn't use your hands to do it!

I like the idea of dung for fuel, but not this suggestion so much.

Production of gas from fresh dung has been considered in the past.

And no, we don't need Cantrian auto-poo. Rejected.

It is a good suggestion though.

Possibly not auto-poo but maybe a bladder bar near your hunger bar. If bladder is not emptied on a regular basis, possibly after consuming 5 kilos of food, would encourage mor epeople to cook and eat better foods, you run the risk of bladder exploding and resulting n death.

No, because it just adds unnecessary minor detail. That causes more tedium. Blah.
