We imagined the main incentive for labor alts is preserving the hunger of other characters rather than getting the food. I'd imagine it's easier to just craft some simple foods than to make wilderness beacons to spawn alts anyway.

New characters now start at full (10000%) energy.
If energy is below Healing (8000%) when eating, the only effect of eating is to gain energy. FEPs, hunger, satiations &c are only affected when eating while Healing.
The "hard-labor cap" (for digging and mining) has been set to 2500% energy instead of the current 5000%.
EXTREMELY based update, thank you! You just rekindled my motivation to play in 3 points.

Any chance we could have hunger be a bar with sections for each 100% of satiety and food efficiency? Ik I could probably post this on ideas buts it filled with crap and its a small change

I'm not sure I understand. Are you talking about a pure graphical change to add a scale to the meter?

Awesome!

Sevenless: it is life
Are there any weird implications to the character creation room? Up until now, starting at 5000% energy in there with nothing to eat prevented digging. If unchanged, I'm curious if this would allow for recovery of trash items in chargen.
