Sleep Starvation
« on: October 30, 2006, 05:36:00 am »

Uh, I was just sleeping in adventure mode, having been moderately hungry before going to sleep, and I starved to death while sleeping. I'm not sure you can go from feeling moderately peckish to dying from malnutrition in the course of 8 hours.

The hunger levels are tied to dwarf mode strongly right now, which means that "hungry", "starving" and being dead are equally spaced.  If you were at "hungry" but very close to starving it would be possible to die like this.  Ideally, you'd be hungry after some hours without food but be able to live for weeks.  Or at least wake up if your food state gets critical...
