Now vegetarian, that’s much more challenging since the only reliable and endless source of vegetarian foods is to live near a Triffid grove or fungal bloom, both of which are not exactly the safest spots to live in.

Vegetarian mutation would be nice if farming would get implemented.

oh wait , vegetarian mutation probably would allow you to eat grass , leaves and all that plant goodness , because you would expect it to change your digestive system to be more acceptable on all type of plants not just plants that can move and fight back.[/quote]

That’s a separate thing, called “Ruminant”, also a mutation.

Isn’t there a Leaves mutation that is similar?

I don’t know. But swimming should freeze you.

Vegetarian is pretty trivial too; you can live off wild vegetables and blueberries pretty easily.

Nah, if I recall, eventually all bushes end up with rotten fruits and vegetables, which needs to be fixed…

Your recollection is flawed.

Bushes, trees and underbrush now gives fresh fruit/veggies when picked, as of 0.4; I think, but maybe as late as 0.5.

The leaves mutation means that you grow leaves, meaning that you can photosynthesize while in the sunlight.

IIRC it was in .5.
