The '''gas mask''' is a piece of [[apparel]] added by the [[Biotech DLC]].

== Acquisition ==
{{Acquisition}}

== Summary ==
Gas masks increase [[Toxic Environment Resistance]] by {{+|80%}}, causing [[tox gas]], [[toxic fallout]], [[rot stink]], and [[pollution]] to be 20% effective. It does not protect from [[disease]]s, which are not contagious between pawns in RimWorld, nor does it prevent [[toxic buildup]] from attacks such as the [[cobra]]'s bite. [[Quality]] does not affect this resistance.

{{Apparel Nudity Note}}

== Analysis ==
{{Rewrite|section=1|reason=Written before insulation and armor changes. Verify stats are correct, add them to the version history log and then rewrite/expand comparisonto helmets. note blunt armornis comparable to plasteel simple or steel flak}}
For many purposes, such as against [[rot stink]], a [[face mask]]'s 50% toxic resistance is sufficient. Face masks also do not cover the head and so can be worn along side [[simple helmet|simple]] and [[flak helmet]]s, unlike a gas mask.

On the other hand, gas masks provide superior protection against [[toxic buildup]] and prevent the immediate irritant effects of [[tox gas]] on sight, breathing, and pain. That is, a gas mask completely blocks the "Tox gas" hediff, in addition to significantly reducing toxic buildup from the gas.

{{Apparel Stats Table}}

== Version history ==
* [[Biotech DLC]] Release - Added.
* [[Version/1.5.4062|1.5.4062]] - Armor and insulation bug fixed - previously gas masks had armor and insulation values defined as [[stuff]] effect multipliers but as the gas mask is not stuffable, this resulted in the gas mask offering no armor or insulation at all.

== Summary ==
Flesh tentacles replace the user's organic arm up to, and including, the shoulder. They are universal and can replace either the left or right. The flesh tentacle has a part efficiency of 120%. This not only fully replaces the functionality of a normal arm - when coupled with the arm body part having a [[Manipulation]] importance of 50%, it results in an increase in manipulation of 10% over natural for each flesh tentacle. Manipulation, in turn, affects a great many [[stats]]. For a full list of affected stats, see [[Manipulation#Affected stats|Manipulation]].

The tentacle also inflicts a {{--|1}} [[Beauty (Pawn)|beauty]].

Finally, each tentacle inflicts {{Thought|desc=Get this thing off of me!|label=Flesh tentacle|value=-6|stack=2}} on its bearer unless that are [[inhumanized]], have the [[body modder]] trait, or [[Body modification|Body modification: Approved]] precept.{{IdeologyIcon}}

Gastro-analyzer

TheBlueSquid: Noted effect of the removal of an aesthetic nose regrowing the organic nose, allowing a gastro-analyzer to be installed without needing a mech serum or pod

The '''gastro-analyzer''' is an [[artificial body part]] that gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a bonus of +5 [[Cooking Speed]]. Installing it requires a working, biological nose.

==Acquisition==
Gastro-analyzers can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. This research requires the use of the relevant [[Techprint]]. They require {{Required Resources}}, {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work, and a [[{{P|Skill 1}}]] skill of {{P|Skill 1 Level}}.

The required techprint can be obtained either through trade or can be earned as a [[quests|quest]] reward. The part itself can be obtained by exotic [[traders]], quests or found on [[raiders]] and visitors.

== Summary ==
{{See also|Cooking Speed}}
An installed gastro-analyzer gives the implantee an improvement to [[Cooking Speed]] equivalent to 5 additional levels of the [[Cooking]] skill. For a healthy but otherwise unaugmented pawn with a skill level of 15 or lower, this is equivalent to a flat +30% additive bonus to cooking speed.

Note that the gastro-analyzer does not improve any other [[stat]] derived from the Cooking skill, nor does it allow recipes with skill requirements to be used earlier - a gastro-analyzer does not allow a [[fine meal]] to be cooked before level 6 for example.

Also note that as Cooking Speed is capped at 160%, and this cap is reached by a healthy, unaugmented pawn at Cooking Level 20. The implant thus may not provide any benefit at all to a particularly skilled, or augmented cook.

=== Installation ===
{{quote|Gastro-analyzer is an implant INTO the nose, while aesthetic nose REPLACES the nose. You can't install a gastro analyzer into a aesthetic nose; it's one or the other.|Tynan Sylvester|source="[https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=51123.msg474313#msg474313 Cannot replace destroyed gastro-analyzer]" on ''Ludeon forums''.}}

The gastro-analyzer can only be installed into a natural nose - lacking a nose or having an [[aesthetic nose]] installed will both prevent installation. This is not a bug, and is working as intended. Although this implies that replacing a gastro-analyzer with an aesthetic nose should be a one-way change, the removal of an aesthetic nose does not result in the absence of a nose, but mysteriously regrows a new healthy organic nose in its place, even if it was missing before the original installation of the aesthetic nose. This means that a missing or damaged organic nose can be regenerated without needing a [[healer mech serum]] or [[biosculpter pod]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, allowing you to install a gastro-analyzer by first installing and then removing an aesthetic nose. To be clear, the aesthetic nose must be manually removed as a distinct operation before the next operation of installing the gastro-analyzer can be queued.

Installing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 2x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.

Removing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 1x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.

If the operation fails, the part has a chance{{Check Tag|What Chance?}} to be destroyed.

==Analysis==
{{Stub|section=1}}
The Gastro-analyzer is useful when trying to minimize the amount of pawns spending their time cooking in a large colony. The Gastro-analyzer is equivalent to 5 levels of cooking, so a level 15 cook would cook as fast as a level 20 pawn. This can make a significant difference in your cooks productivity in the early and mid-game but also keep in mind that the following artificial parts offer buffs:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Part !! Effective Level Increase
|-
| Archotech arm || +4.0/arm
|-
| Bionic arm || +2.0/arm
|-
| Archotech Eye (1x) || +1.5
|-
| Archotech Eye (2x) || +2.0
|-
| Bionic Eye (1x) || +0.8
|-
| Bionic Eye (2x) || +1.0
|}

Thus a fully augmented skill 10 pawn will get no benefit from the gastro-analyzer, just as a skill 20 unaugmented pawn would.

Removing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 1x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.

If the operation fails, the part has a chance{{Check Tag|What Chance?}} to be destroyed.

== Effectiveness and uses ==

The elbow blade is a relatively powerful implant melee weapon, having the second highest DPS of all of the implants given by the [[Research#Compact weaponry|Compact Weaponry]] research. The elbow blade is roughly equal to a [[quality|good quality]] [[steel]] [[longsword]] against unarmored enemies, however due to its only modest amount of sharp penetration falls short against [[armor|armored]] foes. Against unarmored foes, it is not quite as powerful as the [[hand talon]], and falls significantly short when compared to a [[power claw]], [[plasteel]] [[longsword]], or [[uranium]] [[mace]], and so is not particularly useful for a dedicated melee pawn if you have access to these more effective options.

Its greatest benefit comes in fitting it to ranged pawns, as it gives them the ability to be effective in melee combat while still being able to hold a gun. Being able to give a ranged pawn the melee capabilities of a pawn with a [[steel]] [[longsword]] means that if an enemy raider closes to melee range, your pawn isn't completely defenseless. It also makes your pawns more versatile as they can switch from a ranged to melee role in an instant, and still be effective. This is useful if you need another melee fighter immediately for any reason, whether that be to melee block a choke point but no melee pawn is near/has been downed, or simply see that melee locking an enemy is a more effective way to combat them as they can't shoot back.

For pawns with a skill in [[Skills#Plants|Plants]], the elbow blade has the additional benefit of being compatible with both [[field hand]]s and [[bionic leg|bionic]] or [[archotech leg]]s. This allows the full suite of work-related bionics to be added while also improving melee capability.

== Drawbacks ==

The main drawback of the elbow blade is that it can not be simultaneously used with two [[bionic arm|bionic]] or [[archotech arm]]s. [[Manipulation]] above 100% does not affect [[Shooting Accuracy]], and so for a dedicated gunfighter this may not be a significant drawback. However, [[manipulation]] increases [[general labor speed]], meaning that if they have a role within your colony beyond fighting affected by [[manipulation]], such as crafting or constructing, they will be less effective at these roles than they otherwise could be. A pawn can still be equipped with one [[bionic arm|bionic]] or [[archotech arm]], and one elbow blade without it negatively affecting their melee capabilities after [[Version/1.1.2610|1.1.2610]] changed melee verb selection.

If you choose two [[bionic arm|bionic]] or [[archotech arm]]s over one arm and an elbow blade, you also have the option of the [[knee spike]]. The [[knee spike]] is not as effective in combat as the elbow blade however, and has the significant drawback that you then can't install two [[bionic leg|bionic]] or [[archotech leg]]s, which are arguably more important than the arms. In this case you can install [[venom fangs]] which, while the weakest implant of all those mentioned, does not conflict with anything.

The '''sash''' is a piece of [[apparel]] added by the [[Biotech DLC]].

== Acquisition ==
Sashes can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] or [[{{P|Production Facility 2}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed.

== Summary ==
{{Stub|section=1}}
{{Apparel Nudity Note}}

== Analysis ==
The sash gives a slight boost to insulation; the armor bonus is small and is usually negated completely by weapons' armor piercing values. The [[formal vest]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}/[[corset]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} is strictly superior in both respects, and [[flak vest]]s are far more protective, so for most colonists it only has the niche use of "well, it's better than nothing" before they can make better clothes.

The main use case is for [[nudist|nudists]], who otherwise ''would'' in fact wear nothing. It's one of the few nudist-friendly ways to improve their comfortable temperature range, if only slightly. Additionally, it will not interfere with the movement speed increase from being "unclothed" caused by the [[Genes|Naked speed gene]], hence the tendency of [[Yttakin]] to appear wearing only a sash, and perhaps a hat or [[Heavy bandolier|bandolier]].

The '''aesthetic nose''' is an [[artificial body part]] that replaces the organic nose and improves the [[pawn beauty|beauty]] of the implanted pawn.

== Acquisition ==
Aesthetic noses can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. The required [[techprint]] can be obtained either by [[trade]] or completing [[quests]] for the [[Empire]]. They require {{Required Resources}}, {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work, and a [[{{P|Skill 1}}]] skill of {{P|Skill 1 Level}}.

The required techprint can be obtained either by trade or completing quests for the Empire. The part itself can be obtained by trade, quests or found on [[raiders]] and [[visitor]]s.

== Summary ==
An aesthetic nose replaces the pawn's biological nose. The aesthetic nose increases a [[pawn beauty|pawn's beauty]] by {{+|1}}, which increases the pawn's market value, and also increases other pawn's opinion of them by {{+|20}}. Note that all pawn beauty modifiers are additive and that a net change in pawn beauty above +2 or below -2 will have no further effect. See [[pawn beauty]] for more details.

It can be used to replace a destroyed or missing nose, removing the "[[disfigured]]" penalty for missing a nose.

The aesthetic nose does not add any stat offsets to the pawn other than beauty. It cannot be used at the same time as a [[gastro-analyzer]].

=== Installation ===
Installing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 2x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.

Removing the part requires {{Ticks|2500}} of work, 1x medicine of [[Herbal medicine|herbal]] quality or better, and a [[Skills#Medical|Medical skill]] of 5.

If the operation fails, the part has a chance{{Check Tag|What Chance?}} to be destroyed.

== Analysis ==
The aesthetic nose both improves the beauty of the pawn and replaces a missing nose. Thus, it is useful for social harmony by keeping opinions high, both by the +20 of having +1 beauty but also by avoiding the "[[disfigured]]" opinion penalty a missing nose creates. This bonus and removal of a malus can also help couple up a particular pawn or keep an existing couple together and happy by increasing their opinion of each other.

It can also be particularly useful to compensate for reduced beauty: it can cancel out the opinion malus from the [[ugly]] trait or the beauty reduction from the {{RoyaltyIcon}} [[Armorskin gland|armorskin gland]] implant. When combined with the {{RoyaltyIcon}} [[Aesthetic shaper|aesthetic shaper]], they can compensate for the opinion malus from the [[staggeringly ugly]] trait or the beauty reduction from the {{RoyaltyIcon}} [[Stoneskin gland|stoneskin gland]] implant.

The [[gastro-analyzer]] and aesthetic nose cannot be installed on the same pawn.

{{quote|Gastro-analyzer is an implant INTO the nose, while aesthetic nose REPLACES the nose. You can't install a gastro analyzer into a aesthetic nose; it's one or the other.|Tynan Sylvester|source="[https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=51123.msg474313#msg474313 Cannot replace destroyed gastro-analyzer]" on ''Ludeon forums''.}}

This is the only part incompatibility, meaning that besides wealth, there is no reason not to install this part on non-cooking pawns. Even then, due to the fairly easily reached maximum effective [[Cooking Speed|cooking speed]], a fairly skilled pawn with other augmentations (e.g. [[Bionic eye|bionic eyes]] or [[Bionic arm|bionic arms]]) is unlikely to benefit from a gastro-analyzer anyway. However, its small effect makes installing an aesthetic nose a low priority regardless.

There are conflicting reports that beauty improves [[trade]] prices, but these are currently unconfirmed.

Increasing a pawn's beauty above 2 seems to have no additional effect on opinion. For example, a [[beautiful]] pawn will have a +40 opinion boost, with or without the aesthetic nose being installed, despite the pawn's beauty being 3 with the implant, which should result in a +60 opinion bonus otherwise. The same restriction also applies to the {{RoyaltyIcon}} [[Aesthetic shaper|aesthetic shaper]]. Also, keep in mind that the opinion bonus is '''completely''' disregarded if the pawn is disfigured (e.g. due to injury on the eyes or ears). Beauty and disfigurement also never affect the opinions of pawns who have the [[Kind]] or [[Psychopath]] traits, or who are completely [[Sight|blind]].

Although the aesthetic nose can be added to a pawn missing their organic nose and theoretically replaces one, when it is subsequently removed through the "Remove aesthetic nose (nose)" operation, a healthy organic nose will be left behind even if it was missing or damaged before. This can be used to regrow a pawn's organic nose without needing to use a [[Biosculpter pod]]'s bioregeneration cycle or a [[Healer mech serum]]. This is useful if you want to remove the "disfigured" penalty but do not require the +1 beauty (such as if a pawn has the [[Beautiful]] trait which results in the maximum effective pawn beauty of +2), or if you want to install a [[gastro-analyzer]] which can only be installed in an organic nose. Either way, the aesthetic nose can then be reused on a different pawn.

Rot stink

2023-06-17T03:38:06Z

TheBlueSquid: Fleshed out analysis to include all protective factors to rot stink and their effects on the mood hit

{{stub|reason=Needs a general gas format standard that can also be used for blind smoke and tox gas - below is a rough suggestion but only a suggestion}}

'''Rot stink''' is a [[gas]] created by rotting [[food]] and [[corpse]]s. It can cause [[lung rot]].

== Causes ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=what causes it and how much e.g. does 1 rice create as much as 1 thrumbo corpse}}

== Mechanics ==
Like other gasses, its density is shown as a percentage. In small or indoor spaces, the amount of rot stink builds up quickly, which causes the severity to rise quickly as well. A higher severity increases the chance of contracting [[lung rot]], going up to a mtb of 8 days at 50% severity up to a mtb of 0.5 at 100% severity.

When not exposed to the gas, the severity slowly drops with 15% per day.

Minor: visible when reaching 15%, up to 35%
Major: 35-50%
Serious: 50%

Rot stink also induces negative thoughts:

*Rot stink. - 10 mood debuff ("A rotten stink invades my nostrils and sticks to my skin. It makes me sick.")
*Awful rot stink. -16 mood debuff ("The stench of rot is so thick I almost feel like I'm swimming in it. I can hardly breathe in this filth!")
*Rot stink lingering. -6 mood debuff ("That rot stink was horrible - and it feels like it's still stuck to me.")

<Effects and gas mechanics here>

== Analysis ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=risks, management, strategies uses etc}}
It can be used in [[Killbox|killboxes]], but, the requirements are having [[Gas mask|Gas Masks]] or less effectively [[Face mask|Face Masks]] (reduces rot stink buildup but doesn't prevent mood loss), having [[Gene|Tox immunity or Total antitoxic lungs]] (prevents mood loss and rot stink buildup), [[Gene|Perfect Immunity]] (prevents lung rot, rendering rot stink buildup harmless, but doesn't prevent mood loss), or [[Detoxifier lung|one or two detoxifier lungs]] (one reduces rot stink buildup and protects that lung from lung rot, while two prevents rot stink buildup entirely). Alternatively, any two of the following can be used together to prevent rot stink buildup entirely: a detoxifier lung, the partial antitoxic lungs gene, and a face mask/gas mask (as a face mask will suffice in combination with a detoxifier lung or the partial antitoxic lungs gene, it is preferred in this case over a gas mask). The tox resistance gene does not protect against rot stink at all, and only the tox immunity or total antitoxic lungs genes can prevent the mood hit from rot stink exposure - not even missing a nose can prevent this.

== Version history ==
* [[Version/1.4.3555|1.4.3525]] - Added.
* [[Version/1.4.3555|1.4.3555]] - All gasses, including rot stink, can now travel through vents.

'''Tox gas''' is a [[gas]] created by burning or damaged [[toxic wastepack]]s and tox weapons. It causes irritation and [[Ailments#Toxic_buildup|toxic buildup]].

== Causes ==
Tox gas can be created in multiple ways. The most easy way is to use one of the tox weapons.

* [[Toxbomb launcher]]
* [[Tox grenades]]
* [[Tox pack]]
* [[IED tox trap]]
* [[Tox shell]]

Another way to create tox gas is by damaging [[toxic wastepack]]s, such as by burning them.

<what causes it and how much e.g. does 1 toxic wastepack create as much as a stack of 5>

== Mechanics ==
Tox gas burns the lungs and eyes and induce tox buildup if surrounded by it long enough.

Tox gas exposure:

* '''Tox gas (mild)'''
: (Density: 0% - 19%):
** {{++|10%}} [[Pain]]
** {{--|10%}} [[Sight]]
** {{--|15%}} [[Breathing]]
* '''Tox gas (moderate)'''
: (Density: 20% - 49%):
** {{++|15%}} [[Pain]]
** {{--|25%}} [[Sight]]
** {{--|30%}} [[Breathing]]
* '''Tox gas (severe)'''
: (Density: 50% - 100%):
** {{++|25%}} [[Pain]]
** {{--|40%}} [[Sight]]
** {{--|60%}} [[Breathing]]

An exploding [[IED tox trap]] in an open field fills a radius of 7 tiles with a severe dose of tox gas. The following table shows experimentally determined amounts of time for the density to fall below 50% at a given distance from the tox trap. General [[Gas|gas]] mechanics apply, meaning separate sources are additive as they "fill" the available volume to 100% and spread out to a larger distance. This makes it relatively easy/cheap to cover a wide area with enough gas to last throughout a raid at severe density.

|-

|-

|}
A severe dose of tox gas results in a ~40% reduction in [[Shooting Accuracy]], ~40% reduction in [[Melee Hit Chance]], and a ~25% reduction in [[Moving]]. Meaning an enemy raid subjected to a severe dose of tox gas will effectively only be half as dangerous to your colony (explosives nonwithstanding). This does not yet include the shortened combat capacity of pawns as they start any encounter with a ~20% reduced [[Consciousness]] and at medium [[Pain]].

The following table shows the time to reach and the effects of toxic buildup under severe tox gas exposure, facilitated by detonating a tox trap (not keeping density at 100% throughout).
{| class="wikitable"
|+ toxic buildup effects under tox gas exposure
|-
! state!! time [s] !! Shooting Accuracy [%]
|-
| healthy || 0 || 60
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (initial)|| 3|| 34
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (minor)|| 10 || 32
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (moderate)|| 20 || 31
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (serious)|| 30 || 31
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (extreme)|| 37|| immobilized
|-
| tox gas (severe) + toxic buildup (extreme)|| 67|| immobilized
|}
As can be seen, the reduction in [[Shooting Accuracy]] due to [[toxic buildup]] is negligible. Under the test conditions (initial exposure to 100% and decreasing gas density over time), it took 37 seconds for a pawn to fall unconscious from extreme toxic buildup. Without additional source of gas, it can be assumed toxic buildup will not reach 100% under normal conditions. This is actually advantageous, as there is enough time to capture immobilzed pawns after the raid is over.

At a density of 100% tox gas, toxic buildup takes about 45 seconds to reach 100%, resulting in death.

The [[Genes#Tox immunity|Tox immunity]] and [[Genes#Total antitoxic lungs|Total antitoxic lungs]] genes render a pawn immune to tox gas. Wearing a [[Gas Mask]] will prevent the direct effects of tox gas (though inducing a less severe malus on sight by itself) but will only reduce the toxic buildup effect.

Tox gas follows general gas mechanics. A high density of the gas can easily be reached in smaller spaces (for example a small valley).

<Effects and gas mechanics here>

== Analysis ==
Unless you do not care about pollution, creating tox gas by shooting or burning it is not recommended as the [[toxic wastepack]]s will eventually detoriate.

<Uses, risks, management, strategies, vent use? etc>

* [[Biotech DLC]] Release - Added.
* [[Version/1.4.3555|1.4.3555]] - All gasses, including tox gas, can now travel through vents.

The '''gas mask''' is a piece of [[apparel]] added by the [[Biotech DLC]].

== Acquisition ==
Gas masks can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. They require {{Required Resources}} and {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work.

== Summary ==
Gas masks increase [[Toxic Environment Resistance]] by {{+|80%}}, causing [[tox gas]], [[toxic fallout]], [[rot stink]], and [[pollution]] to be 20% effective. It does not protect from [[disease]]s, which are not contagious between pawns in RimWorld, nor does it prevent [[toxic buildup]] from attacks such as the [[cobra]]'s bite. [[Quality]] does not affect this resistance.

{{Apparel Nudity Note}}

=== Armor and insulation bug ===
Gas masks have armor and insulation values defined, but only as [[stuff]] effect multipliers. These require a material to complete the equation and actually produce a final value. As the gas mask is not stuffable, this is impossible to see in the game.

This results in the gas mask offering no armor or insulation at all.

== Analysis ==
For many purposes, such as against rot stink, a [[face mask]]'s 50% toxic resistance is sufficient. As face masks don't cover the head, [[simple helmet]]s and [[flak helmet]]s can be used alongside it. That said, unlike the face mask, the gas mask prevents the immediate effects of [[Tox gas]] on sight, breathing, and pain, in addition to the effect of reducing toxic buildup more than a face mask.

The gas mask offers no protection to the head. Any and all attacks ''completely ignore'' even a legendary gas mask. The only positive effect of quality is a lowered [[deterioration]] rate.

Overdose

2023-06-09T04:50:57Z

TheBlueSquid: Effect of drug impervious genes

{{TOCright}}
Drug '''overdose''' is caused by consuming an excessive amount of [[drugs]] in a short time period, before the body has the time to deal with it. There's a chance of getting an overdose from just one dose. Overdose can cause instant [[Death|death]].

The severity of a Drug Overdose is determined by what drugs are consumed; with social drugs (i.e. [[Beer]], [[Smokeleaf joint|Smokeleaf]]) and [[Luciferium]] not contributing to overdoses, hard drugs (i.e. [[Go-juice]], [[Flake]], [[Yayo]], [[Wake-up]]) increasing the severity by 0.18-0.35 per drug consumed, and [[Penoxycyline]] increasing severity by 0.08-0.14 per dose. Drug overdose severity reduces by 1 per day, meaning that the pawn will fully recover in up to 1 day (0.5 days until no symptoms are shown). Overdose gain is divided by body size (not health scale).

== Stages ==

There are four stages of Drug Overdose:

=== Hidden ===
Severity: < 0.50
* No effect, within tolerable levels of hard drug consumption
* Doesn't show on the health tab of colonists

=== Minor ===
Severity: 0.5 — 0.749
* Reduces the affected pawn's consciousness by 50%
* Frequent vomiting - Every 0.3 days (4.8h) on average

=== Major ===
Severity: 0.75 — 0.999
* Pawn will lose consciousness (Consciousness max: 10%)
* [[Chemical damage]] to the brain on average 2.5 days in this state
* [[Death]] on average 3 days in this state

=== Major/Fatal ===
Severity: 1
* Overdosing pawn's body is unable to handle extreme drug levels, and succumbs

== Random overdose ==

Aside from normal overdoses caused by excessive drug consumption, all hard drugs also have a small, unavoidable chance of causing a major overdose when consumed. This overdose will be of random severity between 0.85 and 0.99 (this is regardless of body size/health scale), and is unaffected by previous overdose severity, meaning that even the first dose could potentially result in a major overdose. The chance of causing a random overdose is 1.5% for [[Flake]], 1.0% for [[Yayo]], and 0.5% for [[Wake-up]] and [[Go-juice]].

The exact likelihood of a single random overdose resulting in chemical damage or death is currently unknown, however in a {{hover title|In Version 1.3.3159|test with a sample of 5,000 random overdoses}}, 5.90% resulted in chemical damage and 5.44% resulted in death, with a total of 11.12% resulting in either chemical damage, death, or both. The chance of a single dose causing permanent damage or death is therefore likely around 0.17% for Flake, 0.11% for Yayo, and 0.06% for Wake-up and Go-juice.

Please note: Having a drug dependency completely removes the random drug overdose chance. Also note, it is still possible to cumulative overdose by over-consumption of the aforementioned drugs. Conversely, possessing ''any'' drug impervious gene prevents cumulative overdoses (from all types of drugs) entirely, as well as random overdoses. {{Check Tag|Specific or all drugs?|Does an impervious gene prevent all random overdoses or just those from the specified drug?}}

}}{{Info|'''Chocolate''' is a [[food]] item which provides a small amount of nutrition, filling a colonist's hunger meter by 10% per unit consumed. Unlike most other foods, it also grants a bonus to [[Recreation]] of 10% per unit. Contrary to the description, the chocolate requires no further processing and is directly harvested from the [[cocoa tree]].}}

== Acquisition ==
Chocolate can be acquired by planting [[cocoa tree]]s after [[Research#Cocoa|Cocoa]] is researched. The trees have a base [[Harvest Yield]] of 20 chocolate per harvest every 16 days, modified by the [[Plant Harvest Yield]] of the grower. Harvesting consumes the trees and they must be resown every harvest. Unlike in reality, no further processing is needed to create chocolate.

Chocolate can also be purchased from [[trade#Orbital Bulk Goods Trader|bulk goods traders]], or occasionally arrive in [[Events#Cargo Pods|cargo pods]].

== Summary ==
When eaten, chocolate provides 10% [[recreation]] of the Gluttonous type. It is worth 0.1 [[nutrition]] per unit, as opposed to 0.05 nutrition from most types of [[raw food]]. It cannot give [[food poisoning]].

Unlike most other foods, it does not spoil. While it will still [[deterioration|deteriorate]] if left outside and/or unroofed, it will not spoil even if left unrefrigerated.

Colonists will eat no more than 4 units of chocolate at a time. Manually directing troubled colonists to eat it when necessary is advised.

== Analysis ==
Both chocolate and [[insect jelly]] can be used as a source of recreation in [[caravan]]s. In a caravan, recreation is otherwise limited to some social activity when stopped and [[drug]] use. It could also be used in emergencies, where colonists need to do work but are recreation-starved.

Insect jelly and chocolate are the only nonperishable foods that high-ranking [[Titles#Conceited_vs_Non_Conceited|conceited nobles]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} are willing to eat. They can act as a sort of "lavish survival meal". ([[Beer]] is technically nonperishable, but you can only drink so much before blacking out or getting addicted)

===Compared to insect jelly===
As a food item, [[insect jelly]] only provides 8% Gluttonous recreation and 0.05 nutrition per unit, both less than chocolate. It also has a 2% chance of [[food poisoning]], unavoidable without the [[Genes#Strong stomach|strong stomach gene]]{{BiotechIcon}}. When no other factors are in play, then chocolate is a superior item. But insect jelly is lighter, with 1/3 the weight per unit. Overall, jelly has 66.7% the weight per nutrition and {{%|4/15 round 3}} weight per recreation %. The lighter weight may be useful in longer caravan trips, though with sufficient [[pack animal]]s you may have enough carrying capacity for chocolate. Insect jelly is also more valuable - in the event that you need to sell things to a faction base, then jelly is superior.

However, the biggest difference between chocolate and jelly is means of acquisition. Chocolate requires both [[Research#Tree sowing|Tree Sowing]] and [[Research#Cocoa|Cocoa]] to be researched. But once researched, it can be grown at will, so long as growing conditions are met. Meanwhile, insect jelly requires an [[infestation]]. This first requires that an [[overhead mountain]] tile is available, and then you'll have to fight and/or farm the infestation in the first place. But larger infestations can result in massive quantities of jelly.

Ultimately, which option is preferable will depend on the circumstances of each individual colony, as well as player preference. A colony in a mountain will accumulate lots of insect jelly, but find it harder to grow cocoa trees. A colony in a flat map is unlikely to face an infestation, but can grow chocolate.

===Trade===
Chocolate tends to be a poor cash crop. This is largely due to the [[cocoa tree]]'s massive {{ticks|4400}} work to sow and harvest. In the time to sow 1 cocoa tree, you could've harvested and replanted 11 [[cotton plant]]s. Those 11 cotton plants would be worth {{icon small|silver}} 15 ''each''. Cocoa trees give {{icon small|silver}} 60 of chocolate per harvest, while 11 cotton plants would give {{icon small|silver}} 165. And because each tree requires a 3x3 space to grow, they are terrible for space efficiency, too.

*'''Potential niche'''
Cocoa trees have the highest $ / Plant Growth Day of any ''raw'' plant product, at {{icon small|silver}} 2.03 / growing day. However, [[hop plant]]s converted into [[beer]] offers a superior {{icon small|silver}} 2.08 / growing day. Due to the cocoa tree's lowered Fertility Sensitivity, growing hops is even faster in rich soil. Trees would technically be better in poor soil, but if you are forced to grow in poor soil, then growing space is most likely a concern - making this scenario moot. While it takes work to convert hops into wort, if work was actually a concern, then you should grow any other crop instead. Plus, beer is superior for Value / Work unless you both have an amazing planter AND terrible cooks. Therefore, hops are a strictly superior crop at this niche.

Plus, each individual cocoa harvest grows slowly - at {{Q|Cocoa tree|Real Grow Days}} days to grow, it is slower than [[corn plant|corn]]. If you need cash ''now'', then cocoa is not a consideration. This makes the previous discussion almost meaningless as cocoa is terrible at anything you would need quick money for.

'''Ailments''' are [[health]] conditions that cannot be treated completely using medicine alone.

"MTB" stands for "Mean Time Between", and is how it's presented in the game files.

Some conditions can give rise to other conditions; the risk of this happening will diminish if the condition is treated.

Most permanent ailments are curable with body part replacements or usage of the [[healer mech serum]].

{{Heal Option Table}}

== Chronic ==
Ailments that come with age. Either non-fatal, or progresses extremely slowly towards fatality compared to infectious diseases.

=== Alzheimer's ===
{{stub|reason = "Forget memory" and "confused wandering" mechanics}}
A brain disease usually associated with aging. Alzheimer's disease causes progressive degradation in the ability to think and remember. Patients are known to forget close relatives and sometimes wander around in confusion.

Alzheimer's progresses by 0.003 per day, meaning that it will take 333.33 days for it to reach full severity from when it first appears.

'''Treatment:'''
* [[Luciferium]]: Luciferium removes one randomly selected condition that it can cure every 900,000 to 1,800,000 [[ticks]] (15 - 30 in-game days). Having fewer luciferium-curable conditions will increase the chance that Alzheimer's is chosen, so it can be worth attempting to address any conditions that can be other means. Even with this however, it can take a significant amount of time. Also note that luciferium is a permanent decision - once taken, further doses are necessary to avoid madness and death.
* [[Healer mech serum]]: A healer mech serum will instantaneously heal one condition of the pawn, including Alzheimer's. Which condition is chosen depends on a priority order, with Alzheimer's being a moderately high priority. See the serum's [[Healer_mech_serum#Order_of_conditions_treated|condition order]] for details.

=== Asthma ===
A chronic health condition where inflammation causes the airways to narrow, restricting the flow of oxygen to the lungs. Unlike other chronic diseases, asthma can be contracted at almost any age, meaning it's not terribly uncommon to have an asthmatic person some time down the line.

When not treated, it progresses by a rate of 0.25 per day, meaning it will take 2 days to reach full severity (50%).

Good treatment will reduce the rate of progression by up to 0.8, meaning it will regress by 0.55 a day; it can be returned to its initial severity, but cannot be cured completely.

Asthma's severity will fluctuate depending on the quality of treatment received, with a treatment quality of 32% beginning to regress the stages of asthma (the higher, the better).

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Stage !! Begins at !! Symptoms
|-
| '''Asthma (minor)''' || ≥ 0% severity || -10% part efficiency
|-
| '''Asthma (major)''' || ≥ 30% severity || -30% part efficiency
|-
| '''Asthma (major)''' || ≥ 45% severity || -50% part efficiency
|}

Treatment:
* The severity of asthma can be reduced with treatment, which can be given every 420,000 ticks (around 7 days). One treatment applies to both lungs.
* Asthma can be cured by replacing each affected lung with a [[Lung#Acquisition|healthy replacement]].

A human pawn can first get asthma at any age.

Asthma can also affect animals, domestic, tamed and wild. Domestic and tamed will notify you that they "need treatment", although there apparently is no downside for ignoring that request except slowing them down which may be bad for [[Animals#Training|trained]] or [[pack animal]]s. Similarly, asthmatic wild animals on the map can roam and eat indefinitely without treatment. In fact, wild animals with asthma are easier and slightly safer to hunt, because asthma will reduce their [[move speed]] to 81%, and their [[manipulation]] to only 90%, which makes any counter-attack less effective.

=== Bad back ===
Degradation in the spinal column and surrounding musculature. This makes it hard to move and bend smoothly.

{| class="wikitable"

=== Carcinoma ===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=How do the stages progress/occur and what chances and factors affects them?}}
A carcinoma (or cancer) is where mutated cells uncontrollably divide to form tumours, which then 'crowd out' normal bodily cells and hinder bodily function in that area. Carcinomas can be surgically removed by a skilled doctor or, in some cases, the affected body part can be removed, either by amputation, transplantation of a healthy body part, or replacement by an [[artificial body part]]. Ordinary treatment will prolong the development of a carcinoma or speed up remission, and can be by doctors of any skill, though better treatment quality is more effective.

A carcinoma typically starts out at 30% severity. There is a 30% chance that a carcinoma won't cause any pain whatsoever.

A cancer has 3 stages; growing, stable and remission.
* When growing, it progresses by 0.003 per day, multiplied by a random factor of 0.45 - 1.65.
* When stable, it neither grows nor regresses on its own.
* When in remission, it regresses by 0.002 per day, multiplied by a random factor of 0.7 - 1.5.

Good treatment can slow progression by 0.0027 per day, meaning that the carcinoma will:
* grow more slowly when in growing stage
:* some slow-growing carcinomas (something less than half) may stop or actually regress (very slowly) during their "growing" stage with good treatment
* slowly regress when stable
* regress quickly when in remission
{| class="wikitable"

* Acute pain (+60%)
* -90% part efficiency
|-
| '''Carcinoma (extreme)''' || 100% severity ||
* Affected part is destroyed
|}

Treatment:
* Treated every {{ticks|240000}}
* The carcinoma will disappear if severity reaches 0.
* "Excise carcinoma" surgery; this needs 4 medicine of [[medicine|industrial quality]] or above, {{ticks|4500}} of work, and a doctor with a [[medical]] skill of 10 or above. The surgery only has a 70% base chance to succeed.{{Check Tag|Fact Check|Not in .xml}} Also note that if the surgery fails, there is a 25% chance that the patient [[Death|dies]]. Thus, as the maximum [[Doctoring#Success chance|success chance]] of any surgery is capped at 98%, there is always at least a 0.5% chance of death per attempt.

A human pawn can first get a carcinoma from normal aging at age 23. Carcinomas from other sources, including [[toxic buildup]] and [[nuclear stomach]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}, can happen at any age. Installed nuclear stomachs create a carcinoma on the torso with an MTB of 120 days.

=== Artery blockage ===
A blockage in one of the critical arteries in the [[heart]]. Heart artery blockages randomly induce [[#Heart attack|heart attacks]]. Artery blockages can be treated by replacing the heart with a [[heart|natural]], [[prosthetic heart|prosthetic]] or [[bionic heart|bionic]] replacement, with a [[healer mech serum]], with [[luciferium]], or with the use of [[biosculpter pod]]'s bioregeneration cycle{{IdeologyIcon}}.

Artery blockages progress by a base of 0.0007 per day, multiplied by a random factor between 0.5 - 3.
This means that artery blockages can take anywhere from 7.9 to 47.6 in-game years from onset to become fatal on its own.

Artery blockages can be treated by replacing the heart.

== Acute ==
Some ailments arise as a result of an acute lack of food or exposure to extreme temperatures. These ailments can only be treated by addressing the underlying cause (e.g. providing food or moving to more comfortable temperatures).

=== Malnutrition ===
When a pawn's [[Eating|food]] meter reaches 0%, they will begin to suffer from [[malnutrition]], shown on the health tab. When a colonist is starving they will prioritize eating over other activities, including firefighting and doctoring.

|}



=== Blood loss ===
{{About|section=1|the effect of already lost blood|the mechanics that cause blood loss|Bleeding}}
A reduction in the normal blood volume. Minor blood loss has relatively mild effects, but as severity increases, the [[consciousness]] rapidly become debilitating. Extreme blood loss leads to [[death]]. Total blood loss is listed under whole body, with a tooltip showing the percent.

Blood loss can occur when a pawn has untreated [[Injury#Bleeding|bleeding injuries]], has had blood harvested for [[hemogen pack]]s,{{BiotechIcon}} or has been fed on by a [[Genes#Bloodfeeder|Bloodfeeder]].{{BiotechIcon}} Blood loss from multiple sources stacks additively.

All pawns recover 33.3% of their blood per day when not bleeding{{Check Tag|Clarification needed|Blood recovery is outright stopped when any blood loss is occurring, or they just stack additively (e.g. -10/day from an injury would result in in +23.3% per day)?}} regardless of [[traits]], [[genes]], [[drugs]], or [[artificial body parts]]. Pawns can also recover through a blood transfusion operation, using 1 [[hemogen pack]]{{BiotechIcon}} to recover 35%. The [[Biosculpter_pod#Medic|biosculpter pod's medic cycle]]{{IdeologyIcon}} will also cure all blood loss, though it should be noted that non-transhumanist pawns would recover completely from blood loss in the same time as the cycle takes to complete anyway. If there is no another reason to use the medic cycle, non-transhumanist pawns should just recover outside of the pod and remain productive for that time.

=== Heatstroke ===
Heat stroke occurs when a pawn has prolonged exposure to [[temperature]]s 10°C (18°F) above their [[maximum comfortable temperature]], and recovery occurs in temperatures less than the maximum comfortable temperature.
Note that it is possible for a pawn to have both heatstroke and hypothermia at the same time if time is spent in both extreme heat and cold - their severities are unrelated.

Pawns additionally take periodic burn damage in temperatures more than 150°C (270°F) above their maximum comfortable temperature.
====Severity Increase====

The procedure for determining severity growth every 60-tick interval is given by:
# Take the amount by which the ambient temperature exceeds the pawn's maximum safe temperature (which is the maximum comfortable temperature +10°C).
# Pass the amount through the curve shown below to obtain the effective temperature excess. Note that for amounts from 0 to 25 °C, this doesn't result in a change.
# Multiply the excess by <code>6.45e-5</code> to obtain the severity growth this interval (60 ticks, 1 second).
# If the growth is less than <code>0.000375</code>, set it to that number. This sets a minimum amount the severity increases by for temperatures in the range of 10 to 15.814°C above the maximum comfortable temperature.
:<code>Increase in heatstroke severity every 60 ticks = max(0.000375, 0.0000645×effective_temperature_curve(<i>ambient_temperature</i> - (<i>maximum_comfortable_temperature</i> + 10°C)))</code>
::<code><i>where </i>effective_temperature_curve()<i> is a post-processing curve with points</i>: (0, 0), (25, 25), (50, 40), (100, 60), (200, 80), (400, 100), (4000, 1000).</code>

====Severity Decrease====
If the ambient temperature is less than the maximum comfortable temperature, the amount the severity will decrease every 60-tick interval is given by:
:<code>Decrease in heatstroke severity every 60 ticks = max(0.0015, min(0.015, 0.027×heatstroke_severity))</code>
This means that as long as the ambient temperature is less than the maximum comfortable temperature, heatstroke recovery is independent of temperature, but severity decreases at its fastest when it is above 50%, and at its slowest below 5.6%. Full recovery from near-100% severity occurs after 151 real-time seconds, or 3.6 in-game hours.

=== Hypothermia ===
Hypothermia occurs when a pawn has prolonged exposure to [[temperature]]s 10°C (18°F) below their [[minimum comfortable temperature]]. [[Insectoids]] don't experience hypothermia, but instead get [[hypothermic slowdown]].

Note that it is possible for a pawn to have both heatstroke and hypothermia at the same time if time is spent in both extreme heat and cold - their severities are unrelated.


The rate of severity growth depends on the difference below the pawn's minimum safe temperature and the ambient temperature. The specific algorithm is:
# Take the amount by which the pawn's minimum safe temperature (which is the [[minimum comfortable temperature]] -10°C) exceeds the ambient temperature.
# Multiply the excess by <code>6.45e-5</code> to obtain the severity growth this interval. Note that unlike hyperthermia, hypothermia calculations don't use a postprocessing curve.
# If the growth is less than <code>0.00075</code>, set it to that number. As a result, temperatures between 10°C and 21.63°C less than the minimum comfortable temperature all have the same severity growth.
Expressed as a formula, this is:
:<code>Increase in hypothermia severity every 60 ticks = max(0.00075, (<i>degrees_below_comfortable</i> - 10)*0.0000645)</code>

=== Hypothermic slowdown ===
{{quote|A special biological state used by some creatures to survive extreme cold. Instead of trying to stay warm, the creature's body chemistry adapts to prevent internal freezing despite very low temperature. Bodily functions are slowed and capacities are reduced, but the cold does no permanent damage. Some biologists call it a wakeful form of hibernation.}}

[[Insectoids]] avoid hypothermia and experience hypothermic slowdown instead with similar penalties but avoiding death at 100% and no [[frostbite]].

Slowdown value increases many times above 100% with apparently no upper limit. When defrosting insects this total value is used so defrost time is proportional to total time frozen.


The rate of severity growth depends on the difference below the pawn's minimum safe temperature and the ambient temperature. The specific algorithm is:
# Take the amount by which the pawn's minimum safe temperature (which is the [[minimum comfortable temperature]] -10°C) exceeds the ambient temperature.
# Multiply the excess by <code>6.45e-5</code> to obtain the severity growth this interval. Note that unlike hyperthermia, hypothermia calculations don't use a postprocessing curve.
# If the growth is less than <code>0.00075</code>, set it to that number. As a result, temperatures between 10°C and 21.63°C less than the minimum comfortable temperature all have the same severity growth.

== Pregnancy ==
{{See also|Animals#Mating{{!}}Mating|Animals#Breeding{{!}}Breeding|Reproduction{{!}}Human pregnancy}}
{{quote|This creature is gestating offspring. It will give birth if the pregnancy comes to term. If starved or injured, there may be a miscarriage.|Description}}

Tamed, non-[[human]], non-[[insectoid]], non-[[egg]]laying, female [[animals]] have a 50% chance to get pregnant from [[Animals#Mating|mating]]. While this is not an ailment in the traditional sense, it does have mechanical effects. For the first {{ticks|600}} this condition will be invisible, after which point a message will come up mentioning the pregnancy.

Humans can be pregnant only if the [[Biotech DLC]]{{BiotechIcon}} is enabled. They have a different list of symptoms. See [[Reproduction]] for details.

A pregnant animal suffering from [[malnutrition]] of 25% or higher or that is injured may miscarry. Miscarriages are noted by an in-game message.

Some animals will give birth to multiple young. The probability of this is determined by a curve, and is different for each animal.

The duration, and thus the severity gain per day, depends on the gestation time of the animal in question.

=== Sterilized ===
{{Stub|section=1}}
{{Quote|This creature's reproductive system has been permanently shut down.|Description}}
[[Animals]] can be sterilized by use of the "Sterilize" [[operation]] to prevent them from being able to reproduce, and the sterilized animal won't attempt to mate with others nor will others attempt to mate with it. [[Egg]] laying animals will stop laying eggs when sterilized. The animal acts as normal in all other ways, including [[milk]] production.

The sterilization operation requires [[Medical]] skill of 3 and {{ticks|500}} of work.

It is unknown if it can be cured.

== Drug damage ==
These ailments are caused by excess drug use.

== General ==
These ailments appear in gameplay, and usually wear off on their own (except death-causing ones).

=== Cryptosleep sickness ===
After-effects of using a cryptosleep pod. Cryptosleep suspends and replaces many bodily functions in order to prevent aging and death. Upon exiting cryptosleep, the body takes time to restart and rebalance its natural metabolic processes. While this is ongoing, the patient suffers from nausea, dizziness, and a sense of fuzziness in the mind.

Occurs after having been in a [[ship cryptosleep casket]] or a [[cryptosleep casket]] for any amount of time. The colonists in the "[[Scenario system#Crashlanded|Crashlanded]]" scenario have a chance of starting with cryptosleep sickness, as they were in cryptosleep before crashing on the planet.

=== Food poisoning ===
Occurs after eating a contaminated meal or occasionally from raw food. The chance of contamination for cooked meals is determined by the [[Room stats#Cleanliness|cleanliness of the room]] where it was prepared and cook's [[food poison chance]] stat.

Raw food has a flat 2% chance of giving food poisoning, while [[corpse]]s have a flat 5% chance. Cooked meals roll two separate probabilities to determine if the food is poisoned. The first checks the [[cleanliness]] of the kitchen used. See the accompanying graph for specifics. Note that cleanliness above -2 prevents this roll from producing poisoned meals. If the cooking station is outdoors, the default chance is 2%.

If the first roll fails to poison the meal, then a second roll is performed, this time based on the [[food poison chance]] of the pawn, controlled entirely by their [[Skills#Cooking|cooking skill]].

The % for food poisoning is determined when the meal is created, and is then tied to that specific meal.

; Symptoms and progress:
Food poisoning lasts 24 hours with no after-effects. It has 3 stages: the first unpleasant 4 hours, followed by a crippling 16 hours, and finally an unpleasant 4 hours largely similar to the first stage, as described in the table below.

; Treatment and Prevention
Food poisoning can only minimized by using manipulating the factors in its causation mentioned above. Prevention can only be guaranteed by exclusively consuming meals from traders as they will never cause food poisoning, by only eating [[nutrient paste meal]]s which will never cause food poisoning, or by installing a [[sterilizing stomach|sterilizing]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} or [[nuclear stomach]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} in the pawn which renders them immune.

There is no treatment for food poisoning, you simply have to let it run its course.{{Check Tag|Verify|Verify that healer mech serums, and to a less extent Luci and biosculpter pods don't have any effect. Add findings to Template:Heal Option Table}} This effectively cripples the pawn for almost the full 24 hour cycle.

Because of the high chance of vomiting at any moment, putting the patient on a temporary diet of [[pemmican]] may be an useful. Vomiting interrupts the process of eating, resetting it to the start, but a colonist can more quickly consume several pieces of pemmican between "attacks" that they can eat an entire [[meal]]. This allows the poisoned pawn to more easily avoid malnutrition without feeding them [[raw food]]s that could cause further poisoning.

Because of the penalty to [[blood filtration]] and [[consciousness]], food poisoning in combination with other ailments such as an [[infection]] can be a cause for concern.

=== Toxic buildup ===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=What is the effect of Toxic Environment Resistance vs Toxic Resistance}}
Primarily occurs with exposure to [[Events#Toxic fallout|toxic fallout]], [[pollution]],{{BiotechIcon}} and [[tox gas]].{{BiotechIcon}}. Prolonged exposure gradually increases the buildup severity.

Alternatively, some attacks cause instantaneous increases in toxic buildup severity, such as [[cobra]] and [[waste rat]] {{BiotechIcon}} bites, the [[venom talon]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} or [[venom fangs]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}. A colonist under a roof is protected from toxic fallout, and avoiding interaction with the other sources can prevent buildup from them.

Buildup severity gained is proportional to the [[Toxic Resistance]] [[stat]] - thus, [[human]]s buildup at the full rate, [[animal]]s at half, and [[insects]] and [[mechanoids]] are immune.{{Check Tag|Body Size?|Buildup severities from Damage types are now inversely proportional to body size, are all sources scaled? Either way, add detail}} Buildup can also be reduced through a variety of of other means including items such as the [[gas mask]] {{BiotechIcon}}, [[detoxifier kidney]] {{BiotechIcon}}, and [[detoxifier lung]] {{BiotechIcon}}, as well as [[genes]] such as [[Genes#Partial antitoxic lungs|Partial antitoxic lungs]] and [[Genes#Total antitoxic lungs|Total antitoxic lungs]], or [[Genes#Tox resistance|Tox resistance]] and [[Genes#Tox immunity|Tox immunity]].

The buildup severity occurs in stages. The later stages cause permanent [[#Dementia|dementia]] which does not wear off even after toxic buildup subsides. When a pawn affected by toxic buildup [[Death|dies]], there is a chance that its corpse will instantly rot - this chance is equal to the severity.

Once a colonist returns to a safe area, such as a roofed area for toxic fallout, or otherwise stops taking severity increases, their buildup severity will gradually decrease. Once no longer exposed, severity reduces by 0.08 per day, meaning that it will take up to 12.5 days to eliminate all toxins accumulated in the body. However, colonists that reach high stages of toxic buildup are likely to develop further complications.

=== Brain shock ===
{{quote|"After-effects of an electrical shock to the brain. This is generally cause by feedback from brain implants hit by EMP pulses." - '''In-game description'''}}
Occurs when an [[EMP]] effect hits a pawn with the following brain implants:
* [[Learning assistant]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}
* [[Neurocalculator]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}
* [[Circadian assistant]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}
* [[Circadian half-cycler]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}
It lasts between {{ticks|2500}} and {{ticks|3500}}.

== Surgical ==
These ailments happen with medical operations.

=== Anesthetic ===
Used in surgery to make sure that a pawn is unconscious. It can also be administered outside of operations using a medical bill, consuming medicine.

A pawn under anesthesia is unconscious for the first 6 hours, and the worst effects of anesthetic wear off after 12 hours, so arranging operations to be performed some time just before a pawn needs to sleep is recommended if you want them functioning the next work day.

** Surgery is unaffected even if it wears off before finished

==== Version history ====
Prior to 1.1 it lasted only {{ticks|15000}} and did not have any other stages afterwards.

== Resurrection ==
These may occur after a dose of [[resurrector mech serum]] is applied on a [[Death|dead]] pawn.

=== Resurrection sickness ===
After-effects of being resurrected by mechanite injection. Artificially-kickstarted body processes take time to rebalance themselves.

{| class="wikitable"

'''Treatment:'''
* Wears off anywhere from {{ticks|90000}} to {{ticks|150000}}

'''Probability:'''
* 100% chance of being applied

=== Blindness ===
Mechanites fail to properly repair the eyes, instead causing more damage to it, resulting in blindness.

Blindness from [[resurrector mech serum]] applies to both eyes, resulting in total blindness

{| class="wikitable"

* Replace eyes with [[bionic eye]]s or [[archotech eye]]s

'''Probability:'''
* 2% chance when used at 0.1 days or less of decay
* Linearly increases to 80% after 5 days decayed

=== Resurrection psychosis ===
Chaotic thought patterns caused by the decoherence of resurrection mechanites. Resurrection psychosis progresses and eventually causes total psychosis and [[Death|death]].

The severity of the psychosis increases by 0.01 per day, meaning that it will kill in 100 days. Hopefully this gives you enough time to find a [[healer mech serum]], the only treatment for the disease.

|}

'''Treatments:'''
* Healer mech serum
* Allowing the pawn to [[Death|die]] again, then resurrecting once more (rerolls the disease)

'''Probability of contracting:'''
* 2% chance when used at 0.1 days or less of decay
* Linearly increases to 80% after 5 days decayed

'''Prevention:'''
* Freeze corpses immediately after death. Corpses placed in a [[sarcophagus]] are still affected by the temperature of the room they are in, and can be removed later.

== Heart attack ==
Heart attacks can randomly occur on any pawn/animal at any time, but they become more frequent as they pass half of their life expectancy (e.g. 40 years in humans), triggered by the [[Events#Birthday|birthday event]]. There must be more than 2 colonists on your colony for this to occur.

The average interval between heart attacks is curved as follows (in days):
* 0-50% of life expectancy: 99,999,999 - 99,999,999
* 50-60% of life expectancy: 99,999,999 - 2,500
* 60-100% of life expectancy: 2,500 - 300

Examples of intervals and chances:
* 55% of life expectancy (i.e. 44 in humans): 50,001,249.5 days (approx. 0.00000002% per day)
* 80% of life expectancy (i.e. 64 in humans): 1,400 days (approx. 0.000714% per day)

=== Stages ===
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Stage !! Begins at !! Symptoms
|-
|'''Painful''' || 0% Severity ||
* [[Consciousness]] ×50%
* [[Pain]] +40%
|-

* [[Consciousness]] max. 10% (Unconciousness)
* [[Pain]] +60%
|-
|'''Fatal''' || 100% Severity ||
* [[Death]]
|}

==== Progression ====
Heart attacks always start at 40% severity. Every {{ticks|5000}} the heart attack severity will randomly change by a value between -40% to +60%. This means that it is possible for a heart attack to treat itself on its own, but usually the heart attack progresses to fatal severity.

==== Treatment ====
Like injuries, medicine can be used to treat a heart attack.

Doctors treating heart attacks will administer treatments rapidly, consuming medicine in the process. Each treatment has a chance to succeed, reducing the heart attack severity by 30%. Successfully reducing severity below 0 will completely treat the heart attack.

The maximum chance a particular treatment can succeed is 65%.

==== Prevention ====
Replacing a pawn's heart with either a [[prosthetic heart|prosthetic]] or [[bionic heart]] will completely prevent heart attacks. Note however that while the bionic heart improves the [[blood pumping]] capacity, the prosthetic heart decreases it, and thus all of the stats and capacities it affects.

== Version history ==
* [[Version/0.7.581|0.7.581]] Added with cataracts and bad back
* [[Version/0.8.657|0.8.657]] - Added hypothermia, frostbite, heatstroke, and burns from being in areas with extreme temperatures.
* [[Version/0.9.722|0.9.722]] - Food poisoning and cryptosleep sickness added. Some ailments can now cause vomiting.
* [[Version/0.10.785|0.10.785]] - Starvation and blood loss are now staged and affect consciousness as they worsen.
* [[Version/0.12.906|0.12.906]] - All organisms including animals have life expectancies and will develop chronic conditions like frailty or cataracts in old age. Heart attacks added.
* [[Version/0.13.1135|0.13.1135]] - Carcinoma, asthma, and hearing loss added.
* [[Version/1.0.0|1.0.0]] - Minor starvation (below 25% severity) no longer causes miscarriages.
* [[Version/1.1.0|1.1.0]] - Pregnant animal is no longer viewed as sick because pregnancy affects its capacities. and thus now sells for the same as one with no health conditions.
* [[Version/1.3.3117|1.3.3117]] - Extreme blood loss now reduces consciousness by 40% in addition to setting the capacity's max to 10%. Prior to this, pawns could nonsensically [[Death|die]] by healing from extreme to severe bloodloss if their consciousness was below 40% from other symptoms - extreme would simply max it at 10% but healing to severe would reduce it by 40% to 0% and kill the pawn.
* [[Version/1.4.3523|1.4.3523]] - Sterilized animals no longer lay eggs.

Psycasts

2023-01-22T09:06:18Z

TheBlueSquid: Chaos skip can go through walls

{{Royalty}}
'''Psycasts''' are psychic powers available to pawns with psylink levels, added by the [[Royalty (DLC)| Royalty DLC]].
== Lore ==
<onlyinclude>An organic connection to a larger psychic field. This allows a person to use specific psychic powers that they have learned to influence reality in ways that seem impossible. Higher levels of psylink permit the use of more powers. Regardless of psylink level, a person can only use specific powers that they have learned. Psylink comes from a variety of sources. Single-use [[psylink neuroformer]] devices can create a psylink. Tribal peoples also know how to develop it through ritual linking with [[Anima tree|psychically-connected lifeforms]]. As a physical phenomenon in the brain, psylink is poorly-understood by scientists, not least because it seems to actively conceal itself if studied too closely. One thing most agree on is that it somehow connects people to [[archotech]]s and harnesses their power, possibly through some sort of negotiation or sympathy mechanism.</onlyinclude>

== Acquisition ==
To use psycasts, a pawn must first have a Psylink level equal or greater than the level of the chosen psycast. A pawn may have up to 6 levels of psylink, and these levels can be gained through several different methods:
# Acquire a [[Psylink neuroformer]] through [[Quests|questing]]
# Gain Royalty [[Titles]] by accepting [[Titles#Honor|Honor]] as a quest reward.
# Pawns can meditate at an [[Anima tree]] to grow anima grass. Once 20 grass has a grown, a ritual can be performed, consuming the grass and granting one Psylink level to a pawn with the [[Psycasts#Natural|"Natural"]] Meditation focus type
# Pawns who get blinded through a Satisfying or Spectacular [[Rituals|Blinding Ceremony]] have a chance to get a psylink level, even if the pawns in question have a different [[Ideoligion]] without the [[Blindsight]] meme. The ceremony can be performed again if the pawns regain their sight through any means including: a [[bionic eye]], [[healer mech serum|healer]] or [[resurrector mech serum]], or [[Biosculpter pod#Bioregeneration|biosculpter pod]].{{IdeologyIcon}} Note that pawns with pro-Blindness [[ideoligion]]s{{IdeologyIcon}} at the time of their biosculpting will not have their eyes repaired.

A random psycast of the new level will be learned when gaining a new level of Psylink - i.e. a random level 1 psycast is gained when a pawn gains their first level, a level 2 psycast is learned when gaining their second, etc.

Further psycasts can be gained by using a [[Psytrainer]] which grants the specific psycast mentioned in their name. Additional psycasts are available for purchase from traders, with Empire bases and traders having the most, and tribals having the least. A psycaster can learn any number of psycasts through psytrainers, up to and including every psycast in the game and limited only by the availability of psytrainers themselves.
'''N.b.''' if using a psytrainer for a level higher than the current psylink level of the user, the learned psycast will replaced the one usually gained for that level when that level is acheived. Given using the psytrainer after gaining that level either grants an additional power or does not work and thus does not consume the psytrainer, it is always best to only use psytrainers '''after''' the required psylink level has been achieved.

Also note, if a Psylink neuroformer or Anima ritual has been used to gain a psylink level above what is given for the current title, additional titles will not grant psylinks beyond what they normally do for that title. So if a neuroformer has been used to gain psylink level 1, and then the title of Yeoman is gained and bestowed, the pawn will still only have psylink level 1. This means using neuroformers or rituals on pawns that will gain titles is ultimately a waste, or vice versa.

== Mechanics ==
A psycaster's effectiveness is controlled by three primary factors: their Neural Heat Limit, their available Psyfocus and the [[Psychic Sensitivity]] of their target.
== Neural Heat ==
{{Quote|Despite being called "heat", neural heat is not a measure of temperature. It refers to a type of chaotic psychic energy in the mind which is built up when using psychic powers and dissipates over the course of a few seconds or minutes. If neural heat is pushed past normal limits, it may cause temporary psychic breakdown and unconsciousness due to psychic shock. These conditions don't cause permanent damage.|Neural heat description}}
==== Neural Heat Limit ====
[[File:Neural Heat Unlimited.png|frame|right|Neural Heat Limiter Off]]
[[File:Neural Heat limited.png|frame|right|Neural Heat Limiter On]]
A psycaster's neural heat limit is the primary limitation to how many psycasts they can perform in a given period of time. Each psycast gives the caster a certain amount of neural heat. As long as a pawn stays within their neural heat limit, they'll suffer no ill effects. By default, a pawn will not use a psycast if the neural heat gain would cause them to exceed their limit. This will be represented by the psycast's icon being greyed out on the UI. A pawn can be instructed to ignore their normal heat limit by clicking on the "Neural Heat Limiter", but exceeding the limit can cause [[Psycasts#Psychic Breakdown|psychic breakdown]].

The neural heat limit is affected by both the psycaster's psychic sensitivity and psylink level. A pawn with a level 1 Psylink and 100% psychic sensitivity will have a neural heat limit of 30.

The equation for a pawn's neural heat limit is:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| Neural Heat Limit = 30 * Psychic Sensitivity * (0.66... + (0.33... * Psylink level)
|}
or simpler:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| Neural Heat Limit = (2 + Psylink level) * 10 * Psychic Sensitivity
|}

Assuming 100% psychic sensitivity, this in the following:
{| {{STDT| sortable c_07 text-center}}
|-
! Psylink Level !! Limit
|-
! 1
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 1)) round 0}}
|-
! 2
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 2)) round 0}}
|-
! 3
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 3)) round 0}}
|-
! 4
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 4)) round 0}}
|-
! 5
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 5)) round 0}}
|-
! 6
| {{#expr: 30 * 1 * (0.66666 + (0.33333 * 6)) round 0}}
|-
|}

The in-game meter for neural heat is rounded to the nearest integer, but in-game behavior suggests that the actual decimal value of heat is tracked by the game, as psycasts may sometimes say they have insufficient heat limit to cast even when the spare heat displayed on the pawn's neural heat meter exactly equals the casting cost.

==== Neural Heat Recovery Rate ====
Heat naturally decreases over time, with faster rates provided by additional levels of psylink. Unlike the neural heat limit, it is not affected by the pawn's [[psychic sensitivity]]. The default rate of reduction for a pawn without a psylink or with a level 1 psylink is 0.54/s. Every additional psylink level increases the rate by 12.5%. In addition, the [[pain]] currently felt by the psycasting pawn ''adds'' an additional increase in rate proportional to the primary rate multiplied by three times the pain percentage e.g. at 100% pain, the psycaster will recover neural heat at 400% of their normal rate.

'''Note:''' Offsets to this value, such as from [[eltex]] items, occur to the base recovery rate and are thus subject to the multiplier from the psylink level and pain level. i.e. a normal [[quality]] [[eltex skullcap]] will improve a Psylink Level 1 Psycaster's recovery rate by 0.091/s but increase the rate of a Psylink Level 6 Psycaster's by 0.148/s.

The resulting value follows the equation, assuming at least 1 level of psylink.
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| Neural Heat Recovery Rate = ((0.54+Gear Offsets)*(0.875 + 0.125*Psylink level)) * (1+3*Pain percentage)

==== Psychic breakdown ====
{{Rewrite|section=1|reason = Should be replicated or transcluded on to the [[ailments]] page, but bears discussion}}
{{Quote|Deep psychic destabilization of the mind. Psychic breakdown last for days, causing mental disturbances of various kinds. It resolves itself with time.|Psychic breakdown description}}
A pawn can be instructed to exceed their neural heat limit clicking the icon next to the neural heat gauge to disable the limit. Exceeding the pawn's neural heat limit can cause an effect called Psychic Breakdown. The severity of the Psychic breakdown has elements of randomness to it, but will generally be more severe the farther past the neural heat limit a pawn goes, and the longer they are past their heat limit.

For example, this means that if a pawn is consistently kept at 170% of the neural heat limit, they will, on average, increase the severity of their psychic breakdown by +4 every 2 hours. Note that this is only an average value over time.

In addition, if a pawn reaches twice their normal neural heat limit, they'll immediately be incapacitated by [[psychic shock]] for 3 in-game hours, in addition to the effects of any psychic breakdown that may develop.

Psychic breakdowns come in 3 levels of severity:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Name !! Severity Range !! [[Consciousness]] !! [[Mood#Situation_Special|Mood]] !! [[Mental breaks]]
|-
!Minor
| 0 - 4 || -25% || -6 || Minor [[mental break]], MTB 5 days
|-
!Major
| 5 - 10 || -50% || -12 || Minor or Major [[mental break]], MTB 5 days
|-
!Total
| 10 - 15 || 10% max (Unconciousness) || -18 || -
|}

Psychic breakdowns last a variable number of days, depending on the severity. Severity decreases at a rate of 1 per day. Thus, minor breakdowns last from 1-5 days, major breakdowns last from 6-10 days, and total breakdowns last from 11-15 days.

Because the severity and duration of the psychic breakdown, as well as the chances of it in the first place, depend on how long and by how much your pawn has exceeded their heat limit using [[#Psycasting stat modifiers|equipment that improves psychic sensitivity or neural heat loss]] can help minimize or even avoid psychic breakdowns even if you have to turn off the neural heat limit during combat.

== Psyfocus ==
{{quote|Psyfocus is a special type of mental structuring which is necessary to use psychic powers. Psyfocus dissipates over time, and must be built by regular meditation. Losing all psyfocus makes someone unable to use psychics, but has no other consequences. Higher levels of psyfocus permit higher-level powers, but also increase the rate of psyfocus dissipation|In-game Description}}
{{Main|Psyfocus}}
In addition to the neural heat increase, each psycast consumes a certain percent of psyfocus. Unlike neural heat, psyfocus costs are the same for every caster, and there is no way to exceed or bypass a psyfocus cost. If the psycaster has insufficient psyfocus for the psycast, it cannot be cast at all. Level 3+ psycasts also require the user to have a minimum level of psyfocus stored in order to be useable:
*Level 3-4: 25% psyfocus minimum
*Level 5-6: 50% psyfocus minimum

Even without psycasting, psyfocus will naturally degrade by a small amount per day, relative to the amount of psyfocus the psycaster currently has. Below 25% psyfocus, the psyfocus falls at 3.5% per day, between 25 and 50%, psyfocus falls 5.5% per day, and above 50% it falls at 7.5% per day.

===Meditation===
{{Main|Psyfocus#Meditation}}
In order to replenish psyfocus, a pawn can spend time meditating. Each pawn will gain a base of 50% psyfocus per day, or 2.08% psyfocus an hour. Meditation foci further improve these rates by adding their listed strength. For exaple, a meditation foci of +44% would have mediation give 94% psyfocus per day.

There are 6 different types of objects that a pawn can meditate to:
*'''Natural:''' Available to most, but not all, Tribal [[backstories]]. Natural meditation objects are most effective when no artifical buildings are nearby. Uniquely, a pawn with natural meditation can grow [[anima grass]] and perform the [[anima tree]] linking ritual, allowing pawns to gain psylink levels independent from psylink neuroformers.
*'''Minimal:''' Available to [[Ascetic]] pawns only. Allows meditation at any wall.
*'''Artistic:''' The default meditation type, available to any non-tribal that is not Ascetic. Meditate at sculptures - the higher the quality, the better.
*'''Morbid:''' Available to pawns with certain [[trait]]s, like [[Psychopath]] or [[Jealous]]. Meditate at graves and sarcophagi - deceased family members or loved ones give a bonus.
*'''Dignified:''' Available to anyone holding a royal [[title]]. [[Meditation throne]]s are improved by having a throne room befitting of the pawn's title.
*'''Flame:''' Available to [[Pyromaniac]]s. Meditate at lit campfires and other burning light sources.

Many meditation foci can be improved by having other buildings in its radius. For example, a [[sculpture]] can be improved by having other, high [[quality]] sculptures in its radius. Conversely, most natural foci are weakened by nearby artificial structures.

In any case, foci will never truly "add up". Each nearby sculpture past the first only increases psyfocus by +1-2%, rather than its full psyfocus value. Having multiple unrelated foci together will not have an extra effect. For example, a pawn cannot use a [[meditation throne]] and [[brazier]] at the same time, even if they have access to both the Dignified and the Flame meditation types. The better of the two foci will be used in any scenario.

===Alternative psyfocus===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=Order of operations for calculating meditation gain with base, focus, wakeup, and psymeditative persona weapon - wakeup and psymed are additive with each other, but are they additive or mutiplicative with the others}}
Other than meditation, the following methods will increase a pawn's psyfocus:
*Using [[Go-juice]] instantly gives 15% psyfocus when taken by psycasters.
*Using [[Wake-up]] increases the psyfocus gain from meditation by 20% per day for the duration of the effect.
*The Psy-meditative [[Persona_traits|persona trait]] grants an additional +10% psyfocus gain per day of meditation, while the weapon is held in hand.
*The Kill-focused [[Persona_traits|persona trait]] grant an instant +20% psyfocus on killing an enemy. Note that psyfocus is gained for the killing blow, even on friendlies, so finishing off downed hostiles and even slaughtering colony animals will grant psyfocus as long as the weapon is held in hand whilst doing so. Animal age and body size do not affect this rate either. This can be used to turn excess colony animals, especially from rapidly-breeding animals such as chickens, geese, and ducks into massive psyfocus gain, which can then be leveraged for high-psyfocus-cost utility psycasts such as [[Psycasts#Special_psycasts|Word of Inspiration]] or [[Psycasts#Special_psycasts|Word of Trust]].
*Certain [[Ideoligion#Rituals|ritual]]s {{IdeologyIcon}} grant full psyfocus to all participants when completed with sufficient quality.

== Psychic Sensitivity ==
In addition to its effects in calculating neural heat, psychic sensitivity is also important in how it effects targets.
The targets psychic sensitivity is important as it often acts as a modifier to the duration, and sometimes the magnitude, of the psychic effect. For example, a [[Traits|Psychically Hypersensitive]] (Sensitivity of 1.8) pawn will be affected by the Beserk psycast for 54 seconds instead of the normal 30, while a Psychically Dull (Sensitivity of 0.5) pawn would only be affected for 15 seconds, and a Psychically Deaf (Sensitivity of 0) pawn would be immune.

=== Psycasting stat modifiers ===
{{Stub|section=1|reason=needs effective neural heat change like eltex items have (see their pages)}}
Psychic equipment can improve a psycaster's abilities by providing additional psychic sensitivity and/or by directly increasing the Heat recovery rate.
The following modifiers exist:

:{{note|Persona|A}} Psychic sensitivity traits are mutually exclusive with each other, but not with Neural Cooling. Persona traits appear on the following weapons: [[Persona monosword]], [[Persona plasmasword]], and [[Persona zeushammer]]
:{{note|Sight|B}} [[Sight]] capacity provides is a 1% bonus for each percentage point ''below'' 50% sight. i.e. 20% Sight results in a bonus of +30% psychic sensitivity, while total blindness at 0% Sight provides +50% sensitivity.
:{{note|Neural Heat|C}} Neural heat limit increase from the increased psychic sensitivity, assuming psylink level 6.
:{{note|Stacking|D}} Note that this stacks with the +50% to psychic sensitivity provided just by being having Sight of 0%, for a total of +80% to sensitivity and a +64 to neural heat limit.
:{{note|Bonding|E}} When psychically bonded to a pawn, +10% to psychic sensitivity and +8 to neural heat limit while they are on the same map, otherwise +5% and +4.
:{{note|Quality|Q}} Value scales with [[Quality]]. 0.5x -> 0.66x -> 0.83x -> 1.00x -> 1.16x -> 1.32x -> 1.5x. Note that Normal quality is not 1.00x

Thus the maximum psychic sensitivity possible would be a psychically hypersensitive pawn, genetically modified with super psy-sensitivity, psychically bonded to a pawn on the same map, blinded and with the Blind psysense precept, with a legendary Eltex staff, vest, shirt, robe and skullcap and an implanted psychic sensitizer for a total value of {{Hover title|link=no|100%+80%+40%+10%+50%+30%+75%+60%+30%+23%+15%+25%|538%}} psychic sensitivity and a neural heat limit, assuming psylink level 6, of {{#expr: 538/100 * 30 * 2.6666 round 0}}.

== Psycasts ==
A psycast is the ability performed by the psycaster. A Psycaster can only perform psycasts of a level equal to or below their psylink level. For example, to manifest Beckon, the psycaster would require psylink level 3.

== Tactics ==
[[File:Skip shield radius.jpg|thumb|right|175px|Radius of the skipshield with unshielded area denoted in red, partially shielded areas in gold (see Note left).<br> Note that despite the shield visually extending beyond the tiles, it does not protect them.]]
Psycasts can be used to great tactical advantage- provided that you can get in range of the enemy to use them.
*'''Skipshield''' is most obvious to use to cover your own pawns, allowing melee pawns to close, or giving a respite from attacks. If used for this purpose, keep in mind that it doesn't just stop shots going into the shield, but also from going out the other side. This creates a "shadow" - an expanding cone of area on the opposite side of the shield to the shooter where they can't hit. As the psycast can be positioned whereever you like, unlike the [[low-shield pack]], a single shield can effectively cover a greater area with clever position. Also consider that it prevents firing out of as well. This can allow you to "switch off" any pawn's ranged attacks, even if you couldn't cover all of your pawns with a single or even multiple casts. This is especially useful when a [[doomsday rocket launcher]]-armed [[raider]] drop-pods into the middle of your pawns.
** The radius of the shield is not blocked by walls. Therefore it can be cast on the inside of a fortification and prevent attacks from the outside doing damage to the walls. This is exceedingly useful for protecting against [[termite]]s and other breach raids for a short period to prevent breaches, or buy time.
** '''Note:''' Pawns on the tiles shown in [[gold tile|gold]] in the image to the right are shielded from attacks directly targeted at them however, due to a bug, they can still be hit by attacks aimed at other nearby pawns that miss.
*'''Solar pinhole''' can be used to warm rooms during a cold snap if you don't have enough heaters. Since solar pinholes are relatively inexpensive psyfocus-wise, multiple can be casted if needed.
**Use it when mining deep underground to avoid the darkness work speed penalty.
*'''Burden''' slows the target down.
**Very useful for getting one or two more shots on melee attackers before they close the distance. Effective for this reason with a [[killbox]] setup as well.
**Useful for hunters in case of revenge.
*'''Farskip''' Can be used from the World map. Can't be used while forming a Caravan but can be used if you Draft after you've collected all your gear.
*'''Painblock''' blocks pain, with an effect similar to [[go-juice]].
*'''Stun''' stuns the target for a few seconds.
**Best used to support a melee attacker against another.
**Help melee attackers close the distance to shooters.
**Peel melee attackers off ranged.
*'''Chunk skip''' skips 5 nearby rock or steel slag chunks to a 5x5 target area in a random pattern.
**Can be used to create some [[cover]] if fighting on open terrain where natural cover is sparse or is in inconvenient locations. The chunks can be quickly rearranged with a stockpile.
**Sometimes can be used to steal cover from enemies, provided that your psycaster can target the desired chunks. This ability tends to skip chunks closest to the psycaster, so this might only be possible if they are a melee fighter and can get close to enemy positions.
**Can be used outside of combat to quickly relocate chunks around your base right to the [[stonecutter's table]] or [[electric smelter]]. This can speed up production if a worker has to walk a sizable distance each time to get a new chunk.
**A situational use would be to place chunks behind walls or in open doorways, therefore possibly preventing enemies from using superior 75% cover and forcing them to use chunks as inferior cover or to move to a different spot. This is unreliable due to the random pattern in which chunks are skipped to the target area, as well as the fact that pawns are not immediately forced to move if a chunk is placed on them - they are only prevented from standing on that tile again if they move.
*'''Blinding Pulse''' reduces the Sight of enemies and thus their accuracy, giving you the upper hand in combat. Especially useful against clustered ranged tribals. Using this against melee fighters is useful as well, reducing their hit chance.
*'''Neural heat dump''' is good for burst-casting expensive combat psycasts such as berserk pulse, if you're willing to pay the price of putting a pawn out of action. Pacifists are a good choice if you don't need them to pull fallen allies out of battle.
**The side effect, putting a pawn into a coma for a day, can also be useful to save a pawn from getting mauled by animal revenge, to prevent a sick pawn from having a mental break while they are in bed, and in various other situations.
*'''Beckon'''
**Can force enemies into melee range for engagement, or simply pull them out of cover into the open so your ranged attackers can destroy them.
**Great for peeling enemy melee off a vulnerable friendly.
**Can also be useful to pull an enemy ranged out of an ancient danger.
*'''Chaos Skip'''
**Use on enemies that already entered melee range to force them to break distance in a random direction. Be careful of skipping them into your base.
*'''Vertigo Pulse''' will force a group of enemies out of cover for a few seconds while preventing them from firing at your own pawns while they vomit uncontrollably.
*'''Smokepop''' is essentially a better version of the [[smoke launcher]].
*'''Skip''' is a versatile tool that can be used to manipulate allies, enemies, inanimate objects and the self alike.
**Teleport allied fighters into position quickly, especially melee fighters.
**Skip long-ranged enemies into range.
**Keep enemy melee fighters away from allies.
**Using skip on an ally harms your faction relations, even when used for benevolent purposes. To get around this when rescuing allies, have a colonist rescue the ally and then skip the colonist. This will not give a penalty.
**Teleport a raider near a [[Mechanoid_cluster|mechanoid cluster]] to make them fight each other.
**Can be used on self to quickly escape danger or to urgently move to a location.
**Move downed pawns, allies or enemies, out of danger to safely rescue or capture them.
**Teleport [[chemfuel]] away just before it blows up.
**Steal supplies from [[Raider#Siege|Sieges]].
***Sieges will continuously receive supplies of [[Packaged_survival_meal|Packaged survival meals]] and [[Mortar_shell|Mortar shells]] as they are removed from the siege, but they won't receive additional [[component|components]]. Stealing components before [[Mortar|Mortars]] are built will halt the siege and it potentially allows the unlimited theft of additional supplies.
**Safely capture bleeding fleeing enemies by repeatedly skipping them away from the map's edge until they colapse from blood loss.
*'''Focus''' is good for buffing allies prior to a battle, improving a doctor by giving them boosted tend [[Medical_Tend_Quality|quality]] and [[Medical_Tend_Speed|speed]] (but not [[Medical Surgery Success Chance|success chance]] or [[Medical Operation Speed|speed]] of a surgery, as the bonus from Sight for these caps at 100%).
*'''Wallraise''' creates a wall of rocks in a cross shape.
**Creates impromptu cover for your shooters to shelter behind.
**Use to create LOS blocker against rocket launchers that are about to fire. If you are quick you can even block the rockets mid-flight (note the 1.0s casting time, however).
**Blocking access to doors.
**Temporarily plug gaps made in animal pens during raider attacks (best used by positioning a rock wall adjacent to the gap, not directly in it, so that the pen is enclosed while still leaving the gap itself accessible for rebuilding).
**Protecting [[Unstable power cell]]s while in mech clusters from mortar fire, gunfire, and secondary explosions.
**Casting Wallraise on fire will extinguish it and prevent it from spreading again, although it's strictly worst than Waterskip in that regard.
**Walling in vulnerable pawns far from the base (requires two)
*'''Berserk''' forces an enemy to attack nearby targets indiscriminately, including their allies.
**Have enemies aggro on each other while your ranged fighters pick them off.
**Cause friendly fire as enemies fire at the berserker.
**Offers an alternative way to hunt dangerous animals like [[Thrumbo]]s. Note that once animals have begun fighting each other, they will continue fighting until one of the two is downed or dies, even after Berserk has expired. Damage incurred from each other also will not cause them to go manhunter.
**Extremely powerful against tanky enemies, who can kill non-affected enemies for an extended period of time.
*'''Invisibility''' makes enemies unable to target your allies.
**It is not broken on attacking making it a good choice for close-ranged attackers.
***Can be used to protect a single [[Defense_tactics#Melee_blocking|melee blocker]] against medium and large enemies, but won't block small enemies.
**Self-cast to allow your psycaster to safely get within range.
**Cast on snipers to aggro sieges or mech clusters.
**Cast on wielders of [[Doomsday rocket launcher|doomsday rocket launchers]] and the like to give them time to fire.
*'''Berserk Pulse''' is similar to Berserk but affects an area.
**It causes a dangerous increase in neural heat on all but the most well-equipped of psycasters, but is capable of defeating entire raids using only this psycast. Only the best psycasters can use this twice in a row, unless they have neural heat dump (or are willing to risk heat overflow).
**Extremely powerful against tanky enemies, who can kill non-affected enemies for an extended period of time.
**Works through walls! The target cell must be within line-of-sight (but can be cast on the wall itself), but the effect also applies to targets in range on the other side of the wall. This can be used to great effect by funneling enemies into a U-shaped pathway around another (unconnected or blocked-by-door) hallway with your caster in it. Berserk Pulse can be targeted at the end of the hallway your pawn is in and hit 13 cells in the U-shaped hallway surrounding it. Since enemies do not have collision with each other until they enter combat, this can potentially catch a very large number of hostiles in the area. Best use is alternating sandbags or stone chunks in that section of the U-shaped hallway to slow down the invading army specifically at that point, causing them to bunch up even more.
*'''Mass Chaos Skip''' skips all units in the area randomly, friend or foe, as well as briefly stunning them on arrival at their new location.
**Skip multiple enemies out of cover at once, exposing them to gunfire.
**Only skips things to a location within line of sight of their starting position. However, it does not require line of sight from the caster to a pawn to initiate the skip (ie. it'll skip a pawn that's on the other side of a wall, but they'll still be on the other side of that wall afterwards).
**Note that "line of sight" operates based on actual sight mechanics (ie. the ability to see an area for the purposes of shooting it, using psycasts, etc), _not_ being able to path to it. Buildings that do not permit pathing but do permit being shot over/through will not block Chaos Skip.
**Be careful: you may accidentally skip the enemies behind or even right next to your pawns. The brief stun when the target arrives at the new location can permit time to react, however.
*'''Manhunter Pulse''' causes all animals in a large targeted area to become manhunter.
**Can be used to defend against raiders, or act as an offensive weapons on raids on enemy bases.
**If you also have a pawn with the Wallraise psycast, you can stack all colonists into the gap between two wall raises. The resulting carnage is entertaining.
*'''Flashstorm''' [[lightning]] strikes can be targeted down to a specific tile by roofing the entire area of effect except for the single tile that is targeted. Lightning will still strike at the same rate, but will only strike that unroofed tile. Multiple flash storms can be stacked on top of each other with the number and frequency of strikes stacking directly
** Without roofs, these are wildly inaccurate and only should be used: A) In a killbox with a single unroofed tile, or B) against massive stacks of tribals.
** Note that there is a substantial delay (60-180 seconds, at random on each cast) before the first strike, after which the ability lasts a fixed duration (164s).
*'''Neuroquake''' is a hail-mary-style psycast that is good against a large raid, provided you can protect your psycaster long enough. It is advised to limit all of your pawns, including animals, to the 5 tile radius around the caster, and lock all doors. Reducing psychic sensitivity to reduce coma time no longer is an option in 1.3, as the neuroquake coma no longer scales with a pawns psychic sensitivity. 1.3 also reduced the range from the entire map to a 60-tile radius around the caster.
*'''Word of Serenity''' will not prevent the a [[Traits#Tortured artist|Tortured Artist]] pawn from gaining an [[inspiration]] when used to end a [[mental break]], allowing relatively risk-free [[Quality|Legendary]] farming. It can also end [[Social#Social_Fights|social fights]] early by casting it on either combatant, at a cost of 30 psyfocus.
*'''Word of Inspiration''' can be used to great effect when combined with a [[persona weapon]] with the [[Persona weapon#Kill-focused|Kill-focused trait]].
** Since this trait counts it as a "kill" when the bonded pawn slaughters an animal with the weapon equipped and held, rapidly-breeding animals such as geese, chickens, and ducks (which lay an egg every 1.6, 2.0, and 3.5 days, respectively) can be turned directly into inspirations by hatching the eggs, then slaughtering the chicks, at a ratio of 4 animal slaughters per inspiration.
** This means that that, after a warm-up period while the first eggs incubate, each female goose (provided they have a male to fertilize the eggs) is worth 0.15625 inspirations per day.

Children are human pawns from 3 to 13 years old. Younger pawns are [[babies]]. Older pawns, between 13 and 18, are teenagers - considered adults for most purposes.

Children have important growth moments at ages 7, 10, and 13. These give the pawn access to new work types, as well as the choice of [[trait]]s and passions. Giving a child access to Learning increases the possible choices. See [[#Development]] for more details.

=== Age ===
Age is measured both biologically and chronologically. Biological age represents how far a pawn has grown physically and mentally. Chronological age represents how long a pawn has existed since their birth; their "true" age, so to say. Since chronological age has no direct gameplay effects, all listed ages are in biological years unless stated otherwise.

By default, children biologically age 400% faster. Upon reaching 11, their aging will linearly slow from the [[AI Storytellers#Child aging rate|child aging rate]] until they reach 20, where they'll age at the [[AI Storytellers#Adult aging rate|adult aging rate]], or 100% by default. Their aging can be altered by changing the [[AI Storytellers#Biotech|storyteller settings]].

At the default aging rates, it takes about 3.30 years (~198 days) for a child to grow from birth to age 13, and about 5.38 years (~323 days) to go from birth to age 18. In total, a child takes ~6.91 years (415 days) to go from birth to age 20, of which 2.75 years (165 days) is from birth to age 11.

[[Growth vat]]s can be used to very quickly age pawns up to age 18, after which they will get forcefully ejected. A pawn in a [[growth vat]] will age at a constant 20x speed, unaffected by any other aging factors except for the [[Growth Vat Occupant Speed]] stat{{IdeologyIcon}}, as long as it has access to [[power]] and [[nutrition]]. However, if used to speed up the "Child" stage (ages 3-13), then the vat will impact the child's [[#Development|Development]]. Conversely, the [[Genes#Ageless|ageless]] [[gene]] will linearly slow aging from 13 until stopping entirely at 18 (if not in a growth vat).

For more explanation of aging rate, see [[#Aging]].

=== Capabilities ===
Children as young as 3 can wield [[weapon]]s, but are limited to child-sized clothing like the [[kid pants]] and [[kid parka]], and can only do certain types of work. They receive penalties to [[Global Work Speed]], [[Move Speed]], and more, scaling with age. Due to their body size, they can store less [[nutrition]] and receive stronger effects from [[drug]]s. Children are also vulnerable to the ''Fleeing Fire'' [[mental break]] when seeing [[fire]]. Instead of Recreation, children have [[#Learning|Learning]], which gives them more options for each growth moment.

Teenagers wear adult clothing, have access to all work, lose their Learning need, and won't flee fire without [[Genes#Pyrophobia|Pyrophobia]]. However, they can only reproduce once they reach 16. And, teens retain a small penalty to work speed and body size until they reach 18, where they become full adults and all penalties are removed.

See [[#Stats|Stats]] for a full breakdown of stat penalties.

=== Noncombatants ===
Luckily, children (until 13) do not always have to participate in combat. Children who are unarmed and have not been [[draft]]ed in 24 hours are very low priority targets for enemies.{{Check Tag|Verify mechanic|Exact mechanic unknown?}} Adult colonists will virtually always be targeted over a noncombatant. If children aren't in the line of sight of enemy fighters, they won't be hunted down during an attack. However, they are still vulnerable to stray shots. Meanwhile, opponentless attackers and hungry predators will still target your children when nearby.

=== Mood ===
Children receive a [[mood]]let for simply being young: at age 3, {{+|16}} '''Childlike joy''', at age 6, {{+|12}} '''Childlike wonder''', age 8, {{+|8}} '''Childlike enthusiasm''', and at age 10, {{+|4}} '''Childlike confidence''', finally lost at age 13. Children are happy when their parents are happy ({{+|6}} for each parent), and parents are happy when their children are (also {{+|6}} for each child). Other than that, most regular moodlets apply to them.

Adult colonists receive a {{+|2}}{{Check Tag|??|Possibly scales with mood itself}} ''Happy youngsters'' for having children with high mood in the colony. Most receive a {{--|6}} moodlet for killing an innocent child.

== Development ==
=== Learning ===
Children have a '''Learning''' need, which replaces Recreation. Children scheduled to do [[Schedule#Anything|Anything]] or [[Schedule#Recreation|Recreation]] will satisfy their Learning need. Not only does a fulfilled Learning give mood buffs, analogous to Recreation at the same level, but it can also increase their growth score.

=== Learning Tasks ===
At any one point, Learning will consist of 1 or 2 of the following tasks, which may not always be possible:

* '''Floor drawing''': Children draw pictures on the floor in various places. This does not require any additional supplies and can occur on anywhere within or near home area. The drawings can be cleaned up the same way as any other dirt. Unlike other types of filth, however, it does not carry a beauty mallus (with a beauty of 0).

* '''Lessons''': The child(ren) sit together at a [[school desk]]. If an adult is present, they will instruct the children in a random, currently usable skill (e.g., when age 4 this can be Shooting, Melee, or Social), increasing the child's respective skill level. The speed at which the child learns can be increased by up to 60% by adding up to 3 [[Blackboard|blackboards]] near the school desks at which the lesson takes place. It also trains the adult's Social skill.
** Teaching lessons improves the child's opinion of the adult, for {{+|8}} ''Taught me a skill''. The adult will additionally raise their opinion of the child: {{+|4}} ''Listened to my lesson''.

* '''Nature running''': Children run around outside, similar to the adult "Going for a walk" activity. Care must be taken as nearby predator hunt or potential raid can occur near them, as they tend to run outside the safe zone near the edge. Children can ignore [[allowed area]]s while "running", but will quicky go back.

* '''Radio talking''': Chat with people over the radio, which requires a powered [[comms console]]. This can interfere with the usage if required to contact another faction or a nearby Trader Ship orbiting above the colony.

* '''Sky dreaming''': Children lay on the ground and watch the sky, much like adults that are cloud watching.

* '''Work watching''': Children that are work watching will follow an adult, who does standard work. If the children is at a suitable age for the skill the adult is doing work on (i.e: Meidcal for treating injury with medicine or Social for attempting to recruit/convert prisoners), said skill will slowly be gained.

=== Growth score ===
Each day, children will raise their growth score (shown at the bottom of the screen when a child is selected) proportionate to their Learning need. Growth points are not gained when the Learning need is frozen, such as in a [[growth vat]] or [[cryptosleep casket]].

The growth score can pass through 8 tiers of learning, and each will grant more rewards during a child's growth moment. Tiers give you more flexibility in choosing a child's next trait and gives more passions. Once a growth moment has passed, the child's growth tiers will reset to 0, and you'll need to keep them learning to gain more rewards. A child with constantly fully-satisfied Learning need would achieve a hypothetical maximum of 180 growth points, but 162 is the highest value displayed.

Growth point gain is directly proportional to the time spent between growth moments, so that average Learning for each growth tier remains constant. Under the default settings, children from 3-7 gain up to 3 growth points per day, and children from 7-10 and 10-13 gain 4 growth points per day. Changing the child aging rate in storyteller settings adjusts the growth point gain accordingly. Changes to [[Global Learning Factor]], such as [[Fast learner]], have no impact to growth points or Learning need.

The [[precept]]{{IdeologyIcon}} ''Child Labor: Disapproved'' increases growth point gain by 20%.

== Growth moments ==
{{Stub | section = 1 | reason = Summary of growth moments 7 and 10}}
[[Babies]] become children at 3, and children experience growth moments at 7, 10, and 13, allowing them to gain traits and passions. When a child hits the biological age for a growth moment, a notification will pop up that lets you pick new traits and passions. The selection is randomized, and increased by the growth tier. You can choose their traits/passions within 48 hours of the birthday, and view their bio/health from the selection screen.

During a growth moment, your child may randomly receive a new nickname, such as John Doe gaining the nickname '''Johnny''' (becoming John 'Johnny' Doe). Like other colonists, you can always change their nickname from their bio.

==== Age 3 ====
At 3, your [[Babies|baby]] transitions to childhood and additionally undergoes a growth moment. Now that your pawn is a child, they can walk and talk, wear clothes, and do basic activities. Their Play need is also replaced with a new Learning need.

On their birthday, you will receive two notifications. The first is about their transition to childhood: "<Pawn> became a child", giving you 12 hours to decide whether to keep a child of your colonists as a colonist or enslave them. You'll also receive a notification about their growth moment: "Growth moment for <Pawn>", which may include a new nickname for your child that you'll have 48 hours to change. Both of these decisions can be postponed until their deadlines.

'' Baby '''<BABY NAME>''' has grown up and become a child! (S)He is now old enough to do the following work: <LIMITED WORK> Children do various type of work. As they get older, they become able to do more work types. They also do various child-specific recreational activities. Children need to wear specific child-size apparel. ''

With [[Ideology]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, the child will now follow one of the [[Ideoligion|ideoligions]] your colonists currently believe in. This seems to be chosen at random, and does not have to be the ideoligion of their relatives or friends.

'' '''<BABY NAME>''' has decided to become a follower of the ideoligion '''<MAJOR COLONY IDEOLIGION>'''. By tradition '''<BABY NAME>''', born to '''<MOTHER NAME>''' of '''<COLONY>''' (and) '''<FATHER NAME>''' of '''<COLONY>''' / unknown parents, is a colonist/tribesman, but exceptions can be made... Should '''<BABY NAME>''' remain a colonist/tribesman? ''

Children and their caretakers maintain any [[Social|social]] opinion modifiers that [[Reproduction#Social|arose]] during infancy, but these wear off over time. They immediately become aware of any pawns on the map that they hadn't met while babies, and gain the normal opinion modifiers for every pawn, like those based on [[Beauty|beauty]], [[Traits|traits]], and [[Ideoligion|ideoligion]].

3-year-olds gain the Childhood background '''Child''': ''The story of [their] childhood is still being written.'' They also gain the ability to learn the shooting, melee, and social skills, although they start with 0 experience in them. If you started as a [[New Tribe]], then children will gain the ''Natural'' [[meditation focus]].{{RoyaltyIcon}}

==== Age 13 ====
When a child turns 13, you will receive the notification: "Child" became an adult. They are not full adults yet, but are now considered adults (or teenagers) throughout the game, and have access to all work types.

They wear adult clothing, dropping their too-small child's clothes if wearing any. Their Learning need is immediately replaced by Recreation, removing any mood effects from learning, as well as the {{+|4}} ''Childlike confidence''' [[mood]]let. [[Genes#Drugs|Drug dependency genes]] take effect at this age, as if they last took the drug on their birthday. They also have a chance to gain a [[Traits#Asexual|sexuality trait]], separate from the growth moment trait choice (if they receive none, they will be considered heterosexual). Some kids get special changes upon turning 13.

Children will receive the childhood [[background]] of Tribal Child or Colony Child, dependent on if you started as a [[New Tribe]] or as [[New Arrivals]]. Alternatively, they will receive Vatgrown Child if they spent enough time in a [[growth vat]] - this removes the Natural [[meditation|meditation focus]], if it was present. Their adult backstory will be set to Tribe Member or Colonist, respectively.

== Stats ==
Children and teens have various penalties to speed and effectiveness. Specifically, they have a multiplier to the following stats: [[Move Speed]], [[Aiming Time]] & [[Melee Hit Chance]] (thus, {{DPS}}), [[Arrest Success Chance]], [[Global Work Speed]], [[Market Value]], and [[Property:Body Size|Body Size]]. Each trait is affected differently by age: Global Work Speed rises steadily until adulthood, whereas Move Speed changes in jolts by life stage.

Note that teenagers also have a 1.25 multiplier on maximum nutrition, which offsets the 0.8 multiplier from their reduced body size, resulting in the same nutrition capacity as an adult.

Increasing the growth rate lowers a pawn's chronological age at any given biological age. For example, at 200% aging, it takes ~10 years to reach age 18, and at 400% aging, it takes ~5.4 years (assuming 100% adult aging speed).

A pawn with the [[Genes#Ageless|ageless]] [[gene]] will linearly age slower after 13, before coming to a complete halt at 18. With this gene and the default rates, a pawn will take ~6.5 years (~390 days) between ages 13 and ''17'', then a further 20 years to reach age 17.999. They should never actually reach age 18, but due to round-off error, will likely reach it at some point. If reaching 18 is desired, then a growth vat can be used to ignore this gene.

The fastest a pawn can age is in a growth vat from birth with the '''Growth vats: Essential''' [[Precepts#Growth vats|precept]]{{IdeologyIcon}}, where they reach adulthood in only ~40.5 days, after which they will age according to the set aging rate. Note that these values won't be accurate if a pawn has the ageless gene, spends time both in and out of growth vats, or the aging rates are altered in the storyteller settings mid-gameplay.

== Wearable clothing ==
Being much smaller than adults, children can only wear a limited selection of clothing, mostly consisting of headwear:

== Analysis ==
When raised naturally and with lots of Recreation time, children can very easily become powerful colonists. With the ability to choose from up to 6 [[traits]] per growth moment, the likelihood for at least one "great" trait, like [[Jogger]], [[Industrious]], or [[Quick sleeper]], per growth moment is significant. A child is very likely to have multiple ''good'' traits by the time they become a teen. Passion choice is also excellent - burning passions in any desired field are quite common. Needless to say, it'd be very rare for a randomly generated adult to match a colony raised child.

Child rearing mainly comes at a cost of time, with slightly more than 2.5 years spent in the child stage. However, time is not equal to ''work''. Once they reach age 3, children do not actually require much adult supervision to raise optimally. Five of the six Learning types don't even involve an adult dedicating time to Childcare. The one type that is improved by an adult being present—''Lesson learning''—can be done perfectly fine without one. Children gain Learning at the same rate, but having adults present will increase their skill experience (as well as increasing [[opinion]] between child and teacher). Set an [[allowed area]] so that they won't wander too far from your base, and children will develop almost entirely without interaction from either colonists or the player. The only actual burden of raising children, is food.

To fulfill all possible Learning types, you'll need a [[comms console]], a [[school desk]] with 3 [[blackboard]]s, and a means to go outside. In practice, you can skip out on 1-2 types, and still have 100% Learning. These requirements can make it somewhat hard for starting children (especially for [[New Tribe]]s) to get the maximum bonuses, though it is trivial for any midgame colony to handle. Older children that join your colony will be comparatively worse off.

===Baby stage===
As opposed to the proper child stage, the [[baby]] stage, which lasts for 45 days (3/4ths of a year), requires a notably higher amount of colonist labor. Babies must both be fed and played with by adults. Feeding babies takes a surprisingly long time, especially if breastfed. The base duration of feeding a baby from empty is {{ticks/gametime/hours|5000}}, and babies need to be fed roughly twice a day. Between this and caring for her own needs, a mother tasked with caring for her baby can spend over half her waking hours, every day, for those 45 days.

[[Growth vat]]s can be used to skip the baby stage, at the cost of nutrition and a slight mood penalty to parents.

=== Vats ===
{{Main|Growth vat}}
[[Growth vat]]s can turn children into working machines. It still takes a long time to grow a person - 9 days for the embryo to be born in vat, another 39 days to reach age 13, and then a further 15 days to reach 18 (if desired), for a total of 63 days from embryo to 18 (~ 52.6 days with a pro-vat [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}}). In the meantime, the vat consumes a lot of food. Growing an embryo requires a total of 54 [[nutrition]] - 60 simple meals, or 4 colonists of food for 9 days - while a pregant mother would consume an extra 30% nutrition for 18 days. Growing the child thereafter requires 2 colonist's of nutrition per day. Unlike with most colonists, you can use undesirable foods like [[human meat]] and [[kibble]] with no penatly.

Vatgrown pawns have 0 passions, barely any skills, and 3 random traits. Despite this, extra bodies can always be useful for tasks like Hauling and Cleaning, or fighting in general. While any [[Events#Wanderer joins|wanderer]] or captured [[raider]] is likely to be better, all three [[storyteller]]s have a population intent. As you have more people, it becomes harder to recruit more colonists. Children ignore this mechanic entirely. Therefore, growing children becomes more viable for larger colonies.

[[Gene]] modding can make vatgrown children much more powerful. For example, the [[Genes#Great Shooting|Great Shooting]] gene provides 8 Shooting skill, added on top of the pawn's "true" skill level, and a passion. If planted immediately after birth, the extra passion will nearly triple the Shooting skill bonuses from the vat. This can provide late-game colonies with a functionally infinite supply of soldiers, ignoring the game's natural population curve, and limited only by food production (and possibly lag).

Note that using vats to speed up the baby stage (0-3) and teen stage (13-18) does not penalize the pawn in any way. Babies don't learn or work, and speeding up this phase comes mostly at the cost of [[mood]]. Speeding up a teen to adulthood removes their work speed and body size penalties, though they could've done work in the meantime. However, teens in growth vats do not apply a mood penalty to their parents, as they are not "kids" anymore. Also note that unlike with [[cryptosleep]], colonists in vats have absolutely no penalty applied to them when they exit the vat. If you need them for an emergency (such as a dangerous incoming raid), they can be removed from the vat at a moment's notice.

== Version history ==
* [[Biotech DLC]] Release - Introduced. In Core RimWorld, the minimum human age is 14, where they are treated as adults.
* [[Version/1.4.3531|1.4.3531]] - Children can now do Basic work at age 3.
* [[Version/1.4.3555|1.4.3555]] - Children now deprioritized if not holding a weapon and not drafted. Teen (11-20) aging rate now smooth scales from child age rate to adult age rate. Added [[precept]]s{{IdeologyIcon}} relating to child labor. Fixed "Tribal Child" not giving Natural meditation focus.
* [[Version/1.4.3558|1.4.3558]] - Tribal babies becoming children get natural meditation focus (at 3).

TheBlueSquid: Confirmed cooldown behaviour of Foam Spray

{{Biotech}}
'''Genes''' are a system for adding capabilities to [[human]] pawns. They can be obtained from character creation or implanted via [[xenogerm]].

Metabolic efficiency, denoted by the [[File:Metabolism.png|20px|Metabolism]] symbol, controls the rate at which pawns get [[Saturation|hungry]]. Harmful genes will increase their metabolic efficiency, getting hungry slower, and thus consuming less food overall. Meanwhile helpful genes reduce metabolic efficiency, getting hungry faster, and thus consuming more food. A baseline human has a metabolic efficiency of 0 (100% hunger rate), and genes can bring it as low as -5 (225% hunger rate) or up to 5 (50% hunger rate). The game prevents you from giving pawns less than -5 metabolic efficiency; it doesn't stop you from exceeding 5, but hunger rate will not go below 50%.

Complexity, denoted by the [[File:Complexity.png|20px|Complexity]] symbol, affects how many [[gene processor]]s you need to create a [[xenogerm]] from a set of genes. A [[gene assembler]] can create xenogerms with a maximum complexity of 6, plus 2 for every attached gene processor. Complexity also determines the base time it takes to create the xenogerm, ranging from 4 hours at ≤3 complexity, to 23 hours at ≥20 complexity (which is then scaled by the [[research speed]] of whoever operates the gene assembler).{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Specific math}}

The type of gene is shown both by its position in the gene tab of the pawn and its background:
* [[File:GeneBackground Endogene.png|32px]] Endogenes
* [[File:GeneBackground_Xenogene.png|32px]] Xenogenes
* [[File:GeneBackground ArchiteGene.png|32px]] Archite genes

=== Body type ===
Since people without these genes can have any of the four body types, these genes effectively limit what body types a xenotype can have. For example, [[File:Neanderthal.png|20px|link=Neanderthals]][[Neanderthals]] cannot be thin, because they have all three of the other genes.

=== Melanin ===
{{Image wanted|section=yes|reason=Please upload images of melanin genes.}}

These natural skin colors are '''not available in the xenotype editor and cannot be extracted'''. Every person gets one of these as an endogene unless they already have a skin-color endogene (e.g. [[File:Dirtmole.png|20px|link=Dirtmoles]][[Dirtmoles]] have light gray skin instead of these).

These genes are defined in Core, not Biotech. They are all named "Skin color" in-game.

=== Skin ===
These exotic (non-natural) skin colors do not appear on anyone without the gene. Like body type genes and hair genes, a person can have more than one skin color gene (e.g. [[File:Impid.png|20px|link=Impids]][[Impids]] have three), and one will be chosen.

All of these genes have a "random brightness factor" of 0.18 unless otherwise specified.

! Resurrect<br>[[File:Gene Resurrect.png|64px]]
| Carriers have a reserve of unique resurrector archites which can infuse a corpse, rebuild degenerated tissue and kickstart the vital processes. This brings the dead back to life - though possibly with health issues. This can only be done very rarely, and comes at a steep hemogen cost.
----
* Requires Hemogenic
* Adds ability: [[File:Resurrect gene ability.png|16px]] Resurrect
:''Use archites in the bloodstream to infuse a corpse's body with new life, repairing degenerated cell structures and kickstarting vital functions. The older and worse-preserved the corpse is, the more likely it is that they will come back with memory loss or health conditions. This ability seems to exhaust the archites somehow, so it can only be used very rarely.''

== Notes ==
* Genes that are restricted for specific xeno humans will cause a bug if its present at humans not belonging to said xeno races. (i.e: unable to draft){{Check Tag|Clarify|I cannot understand what this is trying to say. I can't even say if its wrong/been fixed because I'm not sure what "Genes that are restricted for specific xeno humans" even means}}
* Certain genes will not be properly negated by other genes. For example, a drug dependency endogene, while appearing to be negated by the same drug dependency as a xenogene, will instead cause the negative mood from the lack of the drug to start at 2.5 days instead of at 5 days.

== Version history ==
* [[Biotech DLC]] Release - Added.
* [[Version/1.4.3555|1.4.3555]] -
** [[#Psychic bonding|Psychic bond]] now gives +10% [[psychic sensitivity]], or +5% if on different maps. Hediff description changed from ''This person has a psychic bond with another person based on the psychic bonding gene.'' to ''This person has a psychic bond with another person based on the psychic bonding gene. The bond itself grants some limited psychic awareness, allowing it to connect even with the psychically deaf''. Bonds can now be created during lovin' allowing pawns already in a relationship when the gene was implanted to bond.
**Many genes now give direct boosts instead of forcing traits, which allows genes and traits to stack:
*** '''Depressive''' gene renamed to [[#Very unhappy|Very unhappy]], no longer forces [[Depressive]] trait instead decreases mood by {{--|10}}. '''Pessimist''' gene renamed to [[#Unhappy|Unhappy]], no longer forces [[Pessimist]] trait instead decreases mood by {{--|5}}. '''Optimist''' gene renamed to [[#Happy|Happy]], no longer forces [[Optimist]] trait instead increases mood by {{+|5}}. '''Sanguine''' gene renamed to [[#Very happy|Very happy]], no longer forces [[Sanguine]] trait instead increases mood by {{+|10}}.
*** [[#Slow runner|Slow runner]] no longer forces [[Slowpoke]] trait instead decreases move speed by {{--|0.2}} {{CS}}. [[#Fast runner|Fast runner]] no longer forces [[Fast walker]] trait instead increases move speed by {{+|0.2}} {{CS}}. [[#Very fast runner|Very fast runner]] no longer forces [[Jogger]] trait instead increases move speed by {{+|0.4}} {{CS}}.
***'''Slow learner''' renamed to [[#Slow study|Slow study]], no longer forces [[Slow learner]] trait instead multiplies [[Global Learning Factor]] {{Bad|×50%}}. '''Fast learner''' renamed to [[#Quick study|Quick study]], no longer forces [[Fast learner]] trait instead increases [[Global Learning Factor]] {{+|50%}}.
*** '''Staggeringly ugly''' gene renamed to [[#Very unattractive|Very unattractive]], no longer forces [[Staggeringly ugly]] trait instead decreases beauty by {{--|2}}. '''Ugly''' gene renamed to [[#Unattractive|Unattractive]], no longer forces [[Ugly]] trait instead decreases beauty by {{--|1}}. '''Pretty''' gene renamed to [[#Attractive|Attractive]], no longer forces [[Pretty]] trait instead increase beauty by {{+|1}}. '''Beautiful''' gene renamed to [[#Very attractive|Very attractive]], no longer forces [[Beautiful]] trait instead increase beauty by {{+|2}}.
** '''<Drug> addict-resist''' genes renamed to [[#Alcohol resistant|<Drug> resistant]], Addiction-resistant genes for alcohol, smokeleaf and psychite provide a 50% reduction in tolerance buildup. Addiction-resistant genes for psychite, wake-up and go juice have a 50% multiplier on overdose chance. Smokeleaf and Alcohol resistant metabolism cost reduced from {{--|2}} to {{--|1}}.
** '''<Drug> addict-immune''' genes renamed to [[#Alcohol impervious|<Drug> impervious]]. Addiction-immune genes for psychite, wake-up and go juice grants immunity to overdoses from the drug. Addiction-immune genes for alcohol, smokeleaf and psychite provides a 100% reduction in tolerance buildup. Smokeleaf and Alcohol impervious metabolism cost reduced from {{--|5}} to {{--|3}}.
**[[#Smokeleaf dependency|Smokeleaf]] and [[#Alcohol dependency|Alcohol dependency]] metabolism gain reduced from {{+|4}} to {{+|3}}.
** [[#Furskin|Furskin]] and [[#Beardless|beardless]] genes are now mutually exclusive.
** Buffed [[#Furry tail|furry tail]] minimum comfy temperature offset from {{Good|{{temperature|-5||delta}}}} to {{Good|{{temperature|-10||delta}}}}.
* [[Version/1.4.3563|1.4.3563]] - Fix: Pawns with "dead calm" gene can get into fights over botched conversion attempts.
