Coma Drug

A Glitter Worlds[www.glitterworlds.dev] Project by the Better Rimworlds org[github.com].

Overview
This mod adds the capability to induce medical comas in pawns through a specialized drug.

Medical comas can be used to keep injured pawns in a stable state, prevent them from experiencing pain, and potentially increase healing efficiency.

Features
- Medical Coma Drug: Administer to pawns to induce a controlled medical coma.
- Reduced Consciousness: Pawns in a coma have their consciousness reduced to 10%.
- Reduced Food Needs: Reduces the need to eat by 85% to simulate real-world situations.
- Stalled Luciferium Need: Keeps the pawn's Luciferium Need set to a minimum of 0.01% for the duration.
- Complete Immobilization: Affected pawns cannot move or manipulate objects (0% capacity).
- Medical Benefits: Ideal for critically injured pawns or during complex surgeries.
- Reduced Luciferium Need: The pawn's Luciferium need reduces 75% slower than normal.
- Provides Baseline Luciferium: Luciferium addicts will never fall below 5% of the need.
- Rapid Recovery: Pawns will recover 2x faster from diseases.
- Controlled Wakeup: When administered Wake-Up, the pawn will immediately awaken.
- Greater Survival Odds: By massively reducing the pawn's dietary and Luciferium needs, it greatly increases their survival odds, especially during times of famine and extreme injury and disease.

• Running Low on Luciferium?
  Nearby towns out of stock? Three Coma Drugs provide 16.65 days of effect. This is usually long enough for towns to restock.
  Pawns in a medically-induced coma experience a drastic slowdown in Luciferium need depletion – only 25% of the normal rate. This means 26 days of coverage compared to 6.66 days at full need. They also won't drop below 5% need while in this state.
  
  
• Severely Injured Pawn?
  Coma Drugs immobilize pawns, allowing their bodies to heal without further stress or injury.
  
  
• Deathly Ill?
  A medically-induced coma provides a significant 200% increase in immunity gain speed, dramatically improving chances of survival against severe illnesses.
  
  
• Food Shortage?
  Similar to real-life, pawns in a coma require significantly less food. Just one meal is enough to sustain a pawn for the entire 5.55-day treatment duration. You can put your entire colony into a coma to weather a long winter or any extreme food crisis.
  
  
• Prisoner/Slave Management
  Need to quell a rebellion? Trying to transport prisoners to another planet via the Stargate (mod)[github.com] but they won't cooperate? The Coma Drug is your solution!
  
  
• Difficult Detox or Mental Break?
  Is a colonist throwing a major tantrum from psychite withdrawal, or grieving over the loss of a loved one? The Coma Drug offers a humane alternative to drastic measures like double amputations or imprisonment. Let time heal all wounds while they peacefully slumber.

Usage
1. Research: Complete the "Medical Comas" research project (requires Medicine Production).
2. Production: Craft the coma-inducing drug at a drug lab (requires medicine, devilstrand, and 1 luciferium).
3. Administration: Select the pawn, go to the Health tab, and select "Administer coma drug".
4. Duration: The coma will last approximately 5.55 in-game days, depending on the pawn's metabolism.

Balances
- Provide medical benefits for injured pawns.
- Not cause addiction or tolerance.
- Have a controlled duration.
- Colonists need to have a Crafting skill of level 8 and an Intellectual skill of level 10.
- Reduces the hunger need by 85% to match real-world conditions.

Compatibility
