Cantr II Discussion Forum

Ok this is crap sorry to say but if this is what really happened cantr has turned for the worse.

My character had about i dont know 15-20% strength left... but his hunger bar was almost full. Today i check my email and find that my character died, no one hit him.. died of hunger. Is this an error or should i expect my completely healthy (100%) character who has no food to just drop once that hunger bar reaches its max?

Um. Yes. Of course. I think that was pretty much stated to be the case.

What did you think the hunger bar meant?

I dont know... that maybe after it went up i would start loosing a good amount of health each day, not just drop dead.

I think there should be a warning / warnings. Just "You are hungry" easily gets ignored if you see it each day. But if the font size increased every day, or there would be a descriptive word to emphasize the seriousity:

Your are slighty hungry.
You are unpleasantly hungry.
You are terribly hungry.
You are painfully hungry.
You are fatally hungry.

There could also be faint spells notable to others, and during those times the person could be dragged by a single person, maybe even stealing from him/her would be possible.

You see a man in his twenties pass out momentarily.

Different people can drag differently. I have one character who can drag a fully loaded thief single handedly while he has about 50% tiredness. And he a town gaurd. I can't wait to saber someone and see what that does.

A question related to this topic..

Can you eat, to lessen your hunger, when you have more food, than needed, or does your hunger decrease (it does not look like it does) when you eat regularly?

Nothing like a realistic society simulator where eating food doesn't make your hunger bar go down...

Last I heard hunger decreases. About 1% a day. It goes up 5-something% a day.

Now damage...damage definitely doesn't decrease.

except with healing food.

I'm noticing that too, but about 2% decrease when you eat regularly and 5% when you've none, surely that can't be right? So if your out of food for 2 days it takes you 10 days to recover.

Maybe once thirst is implemented this will get changed. I would expect going without water would be very harmful but not food, e.g.

20-30% per day without water, recovery rate 10-15%
2-3% per day without food, recovery rate 5%

But you wouldn't need to actually have water on you person, just be in an area with a river or well.

Ah, I made a mistake there. I slightly adjusted the recovery speed now - it's now, I think, 3% and 5% respectively. (It was, indeed 1% and 5%.)

Is that ok?

hurrah!
thank you.

Uh huh. That'll work! Oh, now what about tiredness?
