Food

Constipation
"You starving on purpose, mate?"

- HLN-A

At times, the -icon will turn pale/grey. When this occurs, your character is in the hidden "constipated" state and needs to. While "constipated," your character will lose food at a greater rate than normal, and any factors draining food will be amplified (i.e. get hungry more quickly). Pooping (default: or  + ) will cease this hidden status effect and your food consumption will return to normal. If left ignored, constipation will eventually reach its critical/breaking point and your character will automatically poop for you. If you do not properly manage your character's constipation, you could drain an entire -bar during one -bar regeneration; this is especially true for characters with high stamina. Sometimes, such as when and/or, your character may even need to poop 3 or 4 times in just a couple of seconds. So don't just press the poop key once and stop; keep pressing it! If managed properly, what would normally drain an ENTIRE -bar might only drain 30% leaving you with 70/100 food (and 2 or 3 human feces) instead of 0 food and. This can be an incredible way to conserve your food resources because if you don't know about this trick or don't pay attention you will burn through food like crazy.

'''Note: Although tames show the same pale/grey food icon, they do NOT suffer the same food draining consequences as the player's character does. This means they do NOT get a hidden constipated status; they are simply ready to produce feces'''

Increasing
Putting a point into Food increases your maximum Food by 10. This does not have any effect on the nutrition or food values of what you eat, but allows you have more digested food at once, which therefore takes longer to deplete to 0.
