Consciousness

Consciousness is a pawn capacity: The state or quality of awareness. A pawn loses consciousness when this falls below 30% and dies when this reaches 0%. Consciousness, also called Data Processing on mechanoids, itself doesn't have any effect on a pawn's stats, however it does directly influence several other capacities that a pawn has.

It is lethal for humans, animals and mechanoids for Consciousness to be reduced to zero. The maximum possible Consciousness capacity is 140% with a healthy pawn high on go-juice, luciferium and wake-up.

Factors

Base Factors

Consciousness is mainly affected by the following factors:

• Blood Pumping: 20% importance, no allowed defect. 100% Max.
• Breathing: 20% importance, no allowed defect. 100% Max.
• Blood filtration: 10% importance, no allowed defect. 100% Max.
• Pain: The pain factor can be calculated as follows*:

IF {1.05 - (0.45 x Pain)}[%] < 100% THEN {1.05 - (0.45 x Pain [%])} ELSE 100%

(* In English, what this says is that very minor pain has no effect, while anything more than minor starts to affect consciousness at a little less than half (.45) its value.)

• Brain part efficiency: 100% importance, no allowed defect. No Max (effectively 100%).
  • Joywire: part efficiency offset −20%
  • Dementia: part efficiency offset −15%

Post Factors

The following factors are applied after the Base factors.

• Beer (high)
  • Tipsy: x90%
  • Drunk: x65%
  • Hammered: x10%
• Psychite hangover (Flake/Yayo/Psychite tea): x80%
• Cryptosleep sickness: x80%
• Food poisoning
  • Recovering and Inital: x60%
  • Major: x50%
• Heart attack painful: x50%

Offsets

The following offsets are applied after the Post factors.

• Beer (hangover)
  • Slight: −3%
  • Strong: −8%
  • Pounding: −18%

  • High: +20%

  • Minor: −5%
  • Moderate: −20%
  • Serious: −40%
• Infection extreme (initial): −5%
• Flu
  • Minor: −5%
  • Major: −10%
  • Extreme: −15%
• Plague
  • Minor: −5%
  • Major: −20%
  • Extreme: −30%
• Malaria
  • Minor: −5%
  • Major: −12%
• Sleeping sickness
  • Minor (initial): −2%
  • Minor (advanced): −4%
  • Major: −15%
  • Extreme (initial): −20%
• Resurrection psychosis
  • Early: −10%
  • Advanced: −20%
  • Severe: −30%
  • Total: −40%
• Circadian half-cycler : −15%
• Neural supercharger : +10%

Limits

If any of these conditions apply, the Consciousness can not be higher than the given value. Note that the it can still be lower.

• Beer (high) blackout: 10% max
• Luciferium withdrawal: 80% max
• Blood loss extreme: 10% max
• Anesthetic
  • Wearing off: 90% max
  • Woozy: 70% max
  • Sedated: 10% max
• Catatonic break: 10% max
• Psychic shock: 10% max
• Psychic coma: 10% max
• Brain shock: 10% max
• Toxic buildup extreme: 10% max
• Heart attack debilitating: 10% max
• Drug overdose
  • Minor: 50% max
  • Major: 10% max
• Malnutrition extreme: 10% max
• Heatstroke extreme: 10% max
• Hypothermia extreme: 10% max
• Hypothermic slowdown extreme: 10% max
• Infection extreme (advanced): 10% max
• Malaria extreme: 10% max
• Sleeping sickness extreme (advanced): 10% max
• Resurrection psychosis catatonic: 10% max

Formula

The formula is as follows:

Consciousness = IF (Base factors × Post factors + Offsets) < Limit THEN (Base factors × Post factors + Offsets) ELSE Limit

The Base factors can be calculated with the following formulas:

Blood Pumping = 1 + ({IF Blood Pumping < 1 THEN Blood Pumping ELSE 1} - 1) × 0.2
Breathing = 1 + ({IF Breathing < 1 THEN Breathing ELSE 1} - 1) × 0.2
Blood Filtration = 1 + ({IF Blood Filtration < 1 THEN Blood Filtration ELSE 1} - 1) × 0.1
Pain = IF (-0.45 × Pain + 1.05) < 1 THEN (-0.45 × Pain + 1.05) ELSE 1
