Genetics

From Unofficial Stationeers Wiki

Plants have a set of Genes that modifies its behavior. A plant's genes will be manipulated in a number of ways, both naturally as well as artificially. When a plant produces fruit or seeds it will pass on its genetics with a small random mutation.

On top of random mutations, a plant's condition over its life can also affect its genes - for example if a plant is starved of water, while it may affect the plants growth speed and vield, the offspring will receive genes that make it require less water. In this way vou can manipulate your crop's ideal conditions.

There are a number of tools you will need to manage your crops effectively: Plant Sampler and Plant Genetic Analyzer. These tools allow vou to sample a growing plant and see the state of its genes.

Plant genetics is not an exact science and will require trial and error and repeated attempts before you are able to reach your targets.

Genetic Devices[edit]

  • Plant Genetic Analyzer
  • Plant Genetic Stabilizer
  • Plant Genetic Splicer
  • Plant Sampler
  • Genes[edit]

  • Growth Speed Multiplier
  • Increases the growth speed of the plant. Plants with a higher Growth speed multiplier will take less time to grow.

  • Dark Per Day
  • The length of time a plant needs to be in darkness each day-cycle to thrive. The standard length dav-cvcle is 20 minutes.

  • Light Per Day
  • The length of time a plant needs to be lit by the sun or a grow light each day-cycle to thrive. The standard length dav-cvcle is 20 minutes.

  • Drought Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can be dehydrated before it starts taking damage.

  • Water Usage
  • The amount of water this plant consumes.

  • Low Pressure Resistance
  • The lower limit of pressure that the plant is able to grow at.

  • Low Temperature Resistance
  • The lower limit of temperature that the plant is able to grow at.

  • Undesired Gas Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay above its toxins resistance threshold before taking damage.

  • Gas Production
  • The amount of gas the plant inhales and exhales.

  • High Pressure Resistance
  • The upper limit of pressure that the plant is able to grow at.

  • High Temperature Resistance
  • The upper limit of temperature that the plant is able to grow at.

  • Suffocation Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can be starved of its inhaled gas requirements before it starts taking damage.

  • Low Pressure Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay below its low pressure limit before it starts taking damage.

  • Low Temperature Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay below its low temperature limit before it starts taking damage.

  • High Pressure Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay above its high pressure limit before it starts taking damage.

  • High Temperature Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay above its high temperature limit before it starts taking damage.

  • Undesired Gas Resistance
  • The partial pressure threshold of texic gases that the plant is able to grow in.

  • Light Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay in light before it starts taking damage.

  • Darkness Tolerance
  • The length of time a plant can stay in darkness before it starts taking damage.
