Base Stats
Stat Modifiers
The joywire implant grants a permanent +30 mood boost. However, the bearer suffers a permanent -20% to consciousness.The consciousness penalty can be partially offset by putting the bearer on Luciferium, but this isn't recommended until you've got a reliable trade partner faction (ideally Outlanders) and a sustainable economy (e.g. manufacturing and selling Flake).
Due to the consciousness debuff, it is only recommended on colonists who will often go on mental breaks due to poor mood, and are generally not vital to the colony's survival.
