Why did I stop gaining FEP's?

Post by SynthAura »

For some reason I've stopped gaining FEP's from eating food.

Food efficacy: 291%
Satiety: 14.3%
FEPS: 0/18

I'm eating different types of foods, for example, blueberries, roasted chicken, etc, but I am not gaining any FEP's at all. Can anyone tell me why this is? My highest food satiation is Blueberries and they're only at 33%.

See the prelude thread:
loftar wrote:We'll be trying a tweak to the food mechanic to make it easier to recover energy without ruining hunger. The changes are thus:
  • 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%.

Eating at a table overrides this, you always gain feps at a table

It does say in the OP of the Prelude thread.

Indeed, but you gave this link: viewtopic.php?f=39&t=74635&start=470#p923405 that didn't mention about eating at a table :D and as I remember, you copy/paste information about FEPs without mentioning about table
