Usage

Consumable properties

A bass can be eaten raw, which will provide the player with some positive effects, or improved by cooking, however these will become negative the longer it's left to perish.

The weight of the bass will determine how much nutrition it has. For example, a bass with a weight of 1.1 will reduce 8 hunger, whereas a bass that weighs 5.3 will reduce 40 hunger. The values below are based on the minimum bass weight of 1.1, i.e. 8 hunger fresh uncooked.

	Fresh	Stale	Rotten
Uncooked	Hunger: -8 Unhappiness: +20 Dangerous uncooked, may cause sickness.	Hunger: -6 Boredom: +10 Unhappiness: +30 Dangerous uncooked, may cause sickness.	Hunger: -3 Boredom: +20 Unhappiness: +40 Dangerous, will cause sickness.
