Sleep

Sleeping restores fatigue and heals your wounds, so it's something you might want to do regularly.

Being under the effect of stimulants (coffee, Adderall, cocaine, etc) will make sleeping very difficult. You can consume those kind of items to purposely delay the need of sleeping.

Consuming sleeping pills, Nyquil or Poppy Sleep will increase your fatigue, and therefore help you fall asleep faster.

Lying down

The process of lying down in order to sleep.

To successfully sleep you'll need to reach a sleepiness above zero. That variable is checked when lying down, and it takes all these factors into consideration:

Penalties

• Suffering from sleeping pill dependance reduces it by 3
• Having the insomniac trait reduces it by 8
• Being under stimulants will reduce it by double the current stim level
• If your level of fatigue is below Tired, it will be decreased

Bonus

• Being over a bed increases it by 5 points
• Being over a makeshift bed, seat or an extended cot will increase it by 4 points
• Being over an extended rollmat increases it by 3 points
• Being over a floor increases it by 1 point
• Being in any other kind of terrain will decrease it by the current movement cost of the terrain type.
• If your level of fatigue is Tired or above, it will be increased (the more tired, the higher the increase).

Sleepiness will also be increased or decreased randomly by a small amount each time this check is done.

If sleepiness is above zero you'll start sleeping ("You fall asleep."), otherwise you'll stand up again ("You try to sleep, but can't...).

Sleeping

Reduces fatigue and heals all body parts. Hunger and thirst increase more slowly when sleeping.

You'll wake up when:

• Your fatigue is between 0 and -20 ("Fully rested.").
• There's a light source (such as the sun) and you've rested for a while ("The light wakes you up.").
• Your body temperature is low/high ("The cold/heat wakes you up.").
