Sight

Sight is a pawn capacity: How well a character can see.

Sight affects most colonist stats (with varying impact). Sight is capped at 100% for many skills, but some combat and medical skills are uncapped.

At the time of writing, the maximum possible Sight capacity is 250% with a healthy pawn high on go-juice and luciferium with two archotech eyes installed, while also being infected with sensory mechanites. Additionally, with the Royalty DLC installed, it is possible to reach a Sight capacity of up to a maximum of 325% by casting a level 4 psycast, named Focus, onto a pawn. It adds a 1.3x multiplier to the already existing Sight capacity.

Therefore the equation for the maximum Sight capacity is :(100% Base Sight + 37.5% 1st archotech eye + 12.5% 2nd archotech eye + 15% luciferium + 35% go-juice + 50% sensory mechanites) * 1.3 psycast Focus effect = 325%

It should also be noted that having the trait psychically sensitive or psychically hypersensitive does not increase the effect of the psycast Focus, and such will not increase the pawns Sight capacity (it will however increase the effects duration).

Medical Tend Quality	Stat	0.7	1.4	The base quality of tending given when tending wounds and illnesses. Final Tend Quality: ( ( ( ( (Medical Tend Quality Stat from Doctor) * (Medical Potency) ) + ( Medical Tend Quality Offset from Bed ) ) * ( 0.7 if Self-Tend) ). Multiplied by a random + or - 25% and clamped to between 0% and the Maximum Tend Quality from the medicine used. Standard bed is not a factor. Only hospital beds have a Medical Tend Quality offset.

Factors

The following factors affect Sight.

Eye efficiency. 100% importance, no allowed defect, no max.
- The game assigns 75% weight to the stronger eye and 25% weight to the weaker, so entirely losing a single eye reduces sight by 25% rather than 50%.
- Bionic eye. 125% part efficiency. Results in +18.75% sight for the first one installed, +6.25% for the second one (due to the above 75%/25% weighting)
- Archotech eye. 150% part efficiency. Results in +37.5% sight for the first one installed, +12.5% for the second one.
Blindfold: Sets maximum to 20%
Psycast Focus: x130%
