Rest
Rest is the game mechanic that controls Characters' needs for sleep. A character with a higher rest value has slept recently, and is less tired than another character with a low rest level.
Levels of Rest
Characters' rest level is grouped into four thresholds: Rested, Tired, Very Tired, and Exhausted. Each threshold exhibits different effects on a character, especially their Thoughts.
The rest levels are as follows:
| Label | Rest |
|---|---|
| Rested | Greater than 30 |
| Tired | 20 to 30 |
| Very Tired | 0.01 to 20 |
| Exhausted | Less than 0.01 |
Rest caps at 100.
Rest Changes
Negative
When awake, rest goes down every tick (1/20000 of a game day) depending on the character's current rest.
| Rest | Change per tick | Change per day |
|---|---|---|
| Rested | -0.0026 | -52 |
| Tired | -0.0013 | -26 |
| Very Tired | -0.00065 | -13 |
| Exhausted | -0.00039 | -7.8 |
Positive
When a character rests in a bed, their Rest value increases over time.
Each tick, rest increases by 0.0125 * Rest Effectiveness.
Rest Effectiveness depends on the object the character is sleeping on:
| Object | Rest Effectiveness | Rest Increase per Tick | Rest Increase per Game Day |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeping Spot | 0.7 | 0.00875 | 175 |
| Bed | 1.0 | 0.0125 | 250 |
| Royal Bed | 1.03 | 0.012875 | 257.5 |
Therefore, when a character reaches the Tired threshold (30 Rest), it takes them this long to return to full (100) rest:
| Object | Time from Tired to Full Rest |
|---|---|
| Sleeping Spot | 0.571 game days |
| Bed | 0.4 game days |
| Royal Bed | 0.388 game days |
