Acquisition

Constructing a psychofluid pump requires Deathrest to be researched, Steel 50 Steel, Plasteel 100 Plasteel, Component 6 Components, Hemogen pack 5 Hemogen packs, and 4,000 ticks (1.11 mins) of work.

Summary

The psychofluid pump increases a sanguophages ability to perform psycasts by providing them with a Psychofluid Rush hediff after deathresting.

Psychofluid Rush "Psychic sensitivity is enhanced because this person used a psychofluid pump while deathresting. This effect lasts until the next deathrest."

Analysis

Psychofluid pumps that are connected to a deathrest casket will grant the user one stack of Psychofluid rush open waking per connected psychofluid pump. Psychofluid rush can stack up to four times with up to four connected Psychofluid pumps. A maximum of four Psychofluid pumps can be connected to a single deathrest casket, and are unable to connect to multiple deathrest caskets.

As with all other deathrest machines, these cost a non-negligble amount of steel and components. Consider holding off on building them until you are more well established and are able to produce steel and components reliabily with deep drills and fabrication benches. The psychofluid pump also requires plasteel, making it one of the more expensive deathresting machines.

They also do not consume power while idling, unlike their contemporaries such as sleep accelerators. Hence, they can be left idle without consequence.
