Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/Ingestibles

DUST modifies effects of ingestibles slightly, and removes some completely. This page tries to cover the most important changes.

Hint: Timed negative effects of ingestibles can be slept off in one hour very easily.

Food
The radiation dose received from food has generally been increased by up to 20 RADs, all other properties have largely been unchanged. The number of harvestable plants in the wasteland has been greatly reduced, making it harder to craft more complex, higher value food.

Most of the recipies relying on Gecko components can not be crafted, the notable exception to this being the excellent value Gecko Kebab, where Gecko Meat was replaced by Tunneler Meat.

Quoting the author of the Fallout: DUST Survival Simulator :

"Geckos are gone too, because I hate their stupid eyes. I mean, er, because the Tunnelers ate them."

In Hardcore Mode, effects scale with the Survival skill as per the following formula (taken from Nukapedia):


 * $$\text{Effect} =\text{Base} \times (1 + \left\lceil\frac{Survival}{50}\right\rceil)$$

While cooking / crafting might yield more than one item of a given type, all values starting with the Effect(s) column are given for a single item.
