Changes: Fear

Revision as of 08:27, 20 February 2020

Fear is an emotion Slimes can experience which causes them to flee from whatever is scaring them.

Slimes experiencing fear are able to jump higher than normal, and any Slimes stacking with one another while experiencing fear will break their stacks. Fear wears off naturally as long as nothing prolongs it, and is unaffected by Hunger or Agitation.

Sources of Fear

There are multiple sources which can cause slimes to experience fear.

The Tarr

Main article: The Tarr

FearTarr — A Corral of Pink Slimes experiencing fear during a Tarr outbreak.

Tarr are the most common source of fear for slimes, appearing frequently in the wild in areas where slimes often cross-contaminate. Coralled slimes jumping while experiencing fear during a Tarr outbreak are capable of breaking their corral's Air Net, if one is installed.

Digitarr and Tarr Rifts

Main article: The Tarr#The Slimeulation

The Digitarr and their rifts that appear in The Slimeulation are both capable of inflicting fear on slimes.

Scareslime

Main article: Garden

FearScareslime — Pink Slimes keeping away from a Scareslime Garden upgrade.

A Garden's Scareslime is capable of inflicting fear on slimes that wander near the plot. While a slime is still able to eat food from the plot, they will try to steer clear of the garden.

Portable Scareslime

Main article: Portable Scareslime

PortableScareslimeVeryScary — Pink Slimes keeping away from a Portable Scareslime.

Much like the Scareslime, the Portable Scareslime is capable of inflicting fear on slimes that wander too close, keeping a wide berth from the gadget. Its intended purpose is to keep slimes away from certain areas.

Fire Pillars

Main article: Solar Anomalies

FearFirePillar — Experiencing fear during a Solar Anomaly. A Pink Slime stack instantly dissolves while trying to get away.

The Fire Pillars which erupt from the ground in The Glass Desert during a Solar Anomaly can inflict fear on both pure Slimes and Largo Slimes. In addition, contact with the pillar will cause a sharp agitation spike.

Changelog

Before 0.2.0 - Implemented.

Trivia

Starving and Agitated slimes will not show the characteristic scared face of a slime experiencing fear, but will still try to flee the source of their fear.
