Editing Item Properties


Items in the game have Properties that determine their effects in [[Custom Crafting]], on consumption, as well as their effects when used to treat [[Injuries]] by [[Doctors]].<br>
Players have a value between -1000 and 1000 for each Property, with 0 being the neutral baseline. All properties will naturally drift towards 0 over time (with the exceptions of [[Hunger, Thirst, and Nutrition]], which dift towards -1000) unless an Injury, [[Adaptation]], or [[Addiction]] prevents them from doing so. A Positive value in a property generally does Good things, whereas a Negative value generally only does BAD things.<br>
Properties do not have their exact values displayed, and sometimes may not be visible at all. Positive values will have a '''plus''' (+) indicator, and negative values will have a '''minus''' (-) indicator. The degree of a value may only be visible to a player with related skills. For example, all players may be able to see that Cocaine is a Stimulant, but a skilled [[Chemist]] may be able to tell at a glance the overall strength of the effects, as well as any secondary effects. Further still, a [[Doctor]] may be able to determine the negative (or positive!) health effects of consuming the drug.<br>
Properties can be viewed by hovering your mouse pointer over the item. <br>
