Surviving the harsh environment of The Alters requires resource management alongside radiation avoidance and threat mitigation. Proper nourishment for your team of alternate selves proves critical for maintaining operational efficiency, as hunger negatively impacts clone morale and productivity.

This survival guide details food cultivation systems and preparation methods to sustain your expedition crew during their planetary ordeal.

Sustenance Essentials

Players must establish two key infrastructure components. The agricultural module facilitates crop cultivation, while the culinary station transforms harvests into edible provisions. These facilities form the backbone of your colony’s survival strategy.

Agricultural Operations

Crop production demands organic matter allocation and temporal investment. Cultivation specifics include:

• Basic yield: 10 organic units consumed over 60 minutes produces 1 food unit
• Bulk production: 50 organics converted to 10 provisions across 16 hours (reducible to 12 through research)

Staffing with botanical specialists accelerates growth rates, though production halts during personnel downtime.

Culinary Preparation

Food processing options diverge significantly in nutritional value:

• Basic gruel: Requires 5 organics and half-hour processing
• Nutrient-rich dishes: 1 raw ingredient transformed in 20 minutes

Specialized culinary personnel enhance meal preparation speed, though improper kitchen management risks morale-reducing health complications for your crew.
