Integrity

[E Man]

Does the effectiveness of an item degrade as the integrity goes down? Or is it all or nothing (goes to zero on total failure)? Clothes, weapons, etc.

All or nothing.

The only reason to switch out something when it's getting low is so that you can dismantle it to get some materials back. Otherwise they will wear it until it completely goes 'poof' and is gone entirely.

One notable exception is food. The meat you get when butchering goes down over time. And food goes bad at a certain point (like below 20%) where you get sick eating it.

Hmm. If you cook raw food that has gone bad, does the cooked food carry over the badness or is it refreshed?

it s refreshed

@Paraleo is mistaken, the cooked food will start with more decay (It wont' be fully refreshed) if the ingredients were going bad. This is a per recipe setting though, so I won't go so far as to say that this is true for "all" cooked meals.

do one mistake and now all wanna take you down :D., fyi I was checking that when insect meat was almost rotting, same for grain, so at least for the fats/oil it doesn't affect the quality. Are you sure your cook didn't just fail the crafting?

Don't use spoiling raw food for cooking. Just toss it in an animal feeder and then take it out again. Once mixed with the good raw food it's all at 100% again.

Don't worrie, you ain't going to inspect a restaurants kitchen before you eat. If the food tastes good no one worries hahaha
