Hidden stats

This page is not complete enough; please help if you can.

Stats that are as important as the default ones but are hidden for gameplay reasons.

The exact values aren't usually shown to the player, but their global effects on the character are displayed when needed (Thirsty, Tired, etc).

Links to various important stats: Hunger, Thirst, Stamina, Fatigue, Scent, Health, Speed, Stim, Pain

Radiation

Default value: 0

Cash

Default value: 0

Recoil

Default value: 0

Oxygen

Default value: 0

Active mission

Default value: -1

In vehicle

Default value: false

This tracks whether or not you're in a vehicle. You may notice the UI changing to reflect vehicle stats, etc: hidden stat at work!  :-)

Style selected

Default value: "null"

XP pool

Default value: 0 | Max value: 800

This is an obsolete value: in Whales' Cataclysm and early versions of DDA, XP built over time and you sent it to develop skills. Since this led to rather non-intuitive gameplay, we scrapped it and replaced with the "Focus" mechanic, which achieves similar effects whilst avoiding the "you can't learn any more" and "you need to go practice skills now, you're wasting XP" problems of the XP pool.

Bottom line: if you have this, you've got an antique version. Keep it, but consider upgrading too!

Last item

Default value: itype_id("null")

Underwater

Default value: false

Whether or not the character is presently underwater. This makes the character difficult to see for non-underwater critters, generally restricts sight, and makes oxygen an important thing.

Dodges left

Default value: 1

Generally, you can only Dodge one attack per turn. Some martial arts styles teach dodging, and can therefore grant bonus attempts to Dodge. Zui Quan is notorious for granting functionally unlimited dodges (40, actually) once you've scored a hit.

(That breaks down as dodging 5 attacks from each of the 8 surrounding tiles. If you're attacked more than 40 times in one turn without something like a shocker attack or other paralysis involved, let us know!)

Blocks left

Default value: 1

You can usually only block one attack per turn. Certain martial arts styles lend themselves to blocking, and permit additional blocks or can grant buff-effects that do. Check your character screen!

Power level

Default value: 0

Your power level is how much power you have at the moment, bionics gained from using a CBM use power

Max power level

Default value: 0

Your max power level defines how much power for bionics you can store at the moment
