Thanks

Unlike other parts and features, photosynthesis has been incredibly tricky to balance through values alone due to how it works in the game. One particularly large issue is the difference between lux levels in the patch maps. I generally try to balance photosynthesis a…
that’s the first thing that comes to mind, but also things like bringing up inaccuracies / discussing scientifically plausible additions to the game, can also be done.
