Simple priority suggestion
« on: June 19, 2008, 01:50:01 pm »

I was reading over the requirements section, and was looking at the 'don't stop working cause you are a little hungry' req (Forget the number)

I'm under the impression that a general reorganization of priorities (I.E. a priority system) is coming.

I wanted to make sure that the easy answer didn't get missed, i.e. you get more hungry over time, and the need to feed priority gets higher.

The system should probably keep track of the average time it takes to get something to eat.

This would also help with dwarves getting 'thirsty' bad thoughts on their way to the water cooler.

I'm guessing that there is a 'food in belly' variable that runs from 120% to 0%, slowly ticks down, you get 'hungry' at 80%, will generally stop working at 75%, suffer bad thoughts and stop important work at 50%, start complaining to the log (starving) at 20% and die at 0%.  (or something like that, the numbers are placeholders)
