Nutrifungus

Nutrifungus

A meaty bioengineered mushroom grown for its nutritious value. It can grow on fungal gravel, but only in darkness - exposing it to any kind of light, including darklights, will kill it.

Nutrifungus grows on lichen-covered soil and must be planted in and stay in complete darkness. So long as the darkness requirement is met, it can be grown in any terrain that is sufficiently fertile to support a growing zone. This includes, but is not limited to, fungal gravel and hydroponics basins. Note that due to its low fertility sensitivity, it takes fewer penalties from poorer soils than more sensitive plants, but also benefits less from being in hydroponics.

Note that most ideoligions hate eating raw fungus.

    Analysis

    Nutrifungus grows very slightly slower than potato plants, taking 103.45% to grow, for the same yield. Otherwise, nutrifungus has the same yield/work as potatoes - they are are mostly identical as food crops. Nutrifungus even less fertility sensitivity than potatoes, making it superior at the potato's niche (growing in poor soil).

    However, most ideoligions dislike eating raw fungus, with a −3 moodlet when cooked. This makes potatoes the better choice for colonies without the Tunneler meme. With the Tunneler meme, growing nutrifungus becomes a no-brainer, as tunnelers hate non-fungus vegetables. They can be also viable if ideoligions are disabled, and you are forced to grow crops under gravel or stony soil.

    Nutrifungus has the advantage of being growable indoors without sun lamps. Therefore, it can be grown in a temperature-controlled room, without the expensive power consumption required to use a sun lamp. Useful in colder climates, even with the mood penalty. They can also be grown if you are forced to (or want to) live under a sun blocker.
