A small brown mushroom typically found in caves. It smells like an old, dirty rag pulled from the stomach of a rotting muffalo - but it tastes surprisingly good when cooked. Dies when exposed to light.

A single (mature?) glowstool provides a dim 28% light in orthogonally adjacent squares and 24% in diagonally adjacent, dropping into the teens at 2-3 squares and single-digits of light at 4 squares, none of which are enough to make any significant difference for your colonists. However, with multiple glowstools whose illumination (within 2 tiles) overlaps, those areas immediately jump to 50% light, which is enough to count as "lit" in those few tiles; often enough for a workbench or meeting spot.

Once harvested, their glow disappears, so they are not a "movable" source of light.
