Make seaweed better

Postby Marian » Mon Feb 20, 2006 3:00 pm

It takes 175 grams to heal 1% damage? You only gather like 135 grams a day, is any other healing food as bad as that? Couldn't that rate be increased a little?

The only way I could see it as having any use at all is if sushi is actually a really good healing food, but I'm not sure because the wiki doesn't say anything about sushi.

As a tangent, grass is even worse...

I know about seaweed, but why do we need iron to make sushi again?

Couldn't find a use for grass, and I'm walking around with the stuff.

Not really. With the right tool, you can gather 2000 grams of grass a day.

Nope, that is reeds. But perhaps such things will be implemented eventually (see the suggestion about "sod houses" for one example).

I picture grass being helpful in tricking ponies into the corral. :wink: But I don't know for sure.

These are being addressed with all the work to bring balance to the food system. There are a lot of these issues to look at though, so it is taking some time to get it all done correctly. :?

Always good to get feed back from someone that has a quote from me in their sig.

I had an epiphanny the other night on how to fix it, but quickly shot it down. "Working on the floor", but that would involve having machines called "floors" or "decks" everywhere, and how do you explain there's two many people on the floor to let anyone else work ... ?

Anyhow. Good to hear sushi and other seaweed based recipies are in the works. Hope some time gets devoted to them. I'm still cruching numbers on the new bits to see if they are helping at all, or just adding flavor to the game.
