Production
Farm animals are very handy to get resources for making clothes or food, while some pawns have little use. Pawnmorpher is formidable to make the best use of these pawns! Some morphs produce resources like their animal counterpart: for example, cowmorphs produce milk, chookmorphs produce eggs, and sheepmorphs produce wool (non exhaustive list).
While it can be very useful, constant production makes your morphs less sapient, possibly to a feral level with specific pills.
When a pawn is morphed, they get a status that determines if they produce mutagenic resources or not. A mutagen neutralized pawn will never produce mutagenic resources, while a mutagen infused pawn will only produce such resources.
Two specific resources can be produced from mutagen infused morphs:
- Chookmorph eggs. They are unsafe to eat, giving chook parts, and they can even turn pawns into full chooks when eaten too often. However, when cooked, they are safe to eat.
- Cowmorph milk. As chookmorph eggs, it is unsafe to eat, giving cowmorph parts, and possibly turning pawns into cows. Safe to eat cooked, it can also be used with Vanilla Expanded Cooking to make mutagenic cheese that change pawns into cowmorphs or even full cows.
Both can be used at a drug lab or a mutagen lab to craft slurry, which can be used in many recipes.
When a morph has been producing resources for some time, they get a status:
- Etherbroken: pawns aren’t coping well with the constant production and get a -40% sapience limit.
- Etherbound: pawns are rather happy with the constant production and get a -20% sapience limit.
The sapience limit can become a problem, as a pawn with a low sapience is slower at research and may not be able to do some tasks. One solution is to ingest dry mutapills, which will stop production and thus remove any status.
With booster mutapills, the production of a morph can be improved. However, increased production makes them hungry faster, less sapient, and could possibly lead them to a catatonic state where their consciousness is set to a maximum of 10% for a few days. In such a state, they do nothing but eating and producing and must be tendered.
The production increase depends on the number of pills ingested:
- 1 pill: productive status. Production is around twice higher.
- 2 pills: very productive status. Production is around 4 times higher. -20% Sapience limit.
- 3 pills: productive bliss status. Production is around 6 times higher. -70% Sapience limit. While they get a very high mood bonus, they will constantly go into a catatonic state.
Dry mutapills can be used to remove the production status.
