Anything smaller-scale than HediffComp_SeverityPerDay?

[Dingo]

I looked around in the documentation and couldn't find anything. Does anyone know of a method to make hediff severity decrease on an hourly basis, for example? The best I can find is having it decrease on a daily basis.

I don't, but have you tried fractional days?

[Dingo]

The fraction is not the amount of days, but the amount to decrease severity. You can use -1, -1.5, -3.0. As far as I can tell it doesn't divide 24h by your input there, but decreases a fixed amount when the day changes. Maybe I'm wrong.

Id check that im sure it changes per tick based on that daily amount.

I think I'm actually dead wrong on this, it does seem to make a difference how much you input there (it was just a bit confusing at first because I messed around with a lot of variables). I tried again and it seemed to make a difference. I also found that you can manipulate it pretty reliably by having SeverityPerDay be -1.0 (or any fixed amount) and playing around with how much severity is increased in the first place.

For example, let's assume you made a drug called Bingo. Bingo is gives you a Hediff called ZingoHigh, like so:

Code Select Expand

<outcomeDoers>
<li Class="IngestionOutcomeDoer_GiveHediff">
<hediffDef>ZingoHigh</hediffDef>
<severity>0.1</severity>
<toleranceChemical>Zingo</toleranceChemical>
</li>
</outcomeDoers>

Since Bingo increases ZingoHigh severity by 0.1, if your HediffComp_SeverityPerDay is -1.0 (so -1 per 24h), every dose of Bingo will go away after roughly 10% of a day which is 2.4h and you can fine tune from there.
