Welcome 2021

Happy New Year!

We're a week into 2021, or rather: 2020 part 2. Good luck everyone, stay safe <3

New System: The Hospital!

We'd like to introduce the Hospital!

For a fee of 25 Xen, you can put one of your injured colonists into the hospital in order for another colonist to pick them up to heal them. Colonists who are in the hospital as patients cannot participate in actions, breedings, crucibles, or as a doctor. They can still have art drawn about them in order to gain XP and they can still be featured in Story Mode pieces.

Any Level One or up colonist (who isn't already a patient) can claim any patient and can attempt to heal them, so long as the owner of the doctor has the Medicine research.

The calculation for the Hospital is a 1d20 plus the doctor's Medicine skill with a 7 or above a success, though there are different levels of success. Rolling a 7 grants a little bit of XP towards the doctor and a little bit of healing towards the patient. Rolling above a 20, however, is a Medical Wonder - this usually can only occur if a colonist's Medicine skill is a positive number, ie. you roll a 20 and then add a +3 to make 23. There is the chance for catastrophic failures, which can cause additional damage to the patient. Any failure will result in the 25 xen fee being refunded to the patient's owner.

If a patient has health below 50%, they have to have Surgery - which requires Level Two and the Surgery research.

The Skilled Surgeon research rolls the initial 1d20 twice and takes the higher of the two - this is called Advantage. Basically, you have twice the chance to get a good number and heal your patient well.

Doctors can also add art pieces to get a higher chance of success.

In these cases, the healing attempt goes to the admins for approval. If it's not approved, the doctor get kicked off of the patient and the patient goes back into the pool of patients who need doctors, at no extra fee to the patient's colony. To earn XP for the art/lit, the artist/writer should also submit the piece into the Hospital Visit prompt.

Last Call for Stat Increases from the old system.

You have just under one week to send in a submission to this prompt if you have passed certain XP (old system: LVL) counts and want to pick up any missed stat increases from the old system. This is only applicable to XP thresholds that have been passed on the Xiun.us site. If you passed them back when we were on the Sheets system, it won't count - and we will be back-checking the old Sheets to make sure.

Link to your colonists and state what thresholds they passed before the new Leveling system was put in place and request the specific stats.

As a reminder, the old thresholds were: 30, 40, 60, 80, and 100.

Please don't try to cheat us by using XP gained after the new Level system was set up. Anything from after December 25 isn't applicable.
