Attributes

There are seven character attributes: Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Speed, Constitution, Focus, and Perception. Each attribute starts at zero. Attributes may be increased temporarily by eating raw herbs from the ground, by eating grilled foods, or by eating cooked food from a kitchen. Catching a whiff of Incense will provide a short term stat +1 boost to one attribute and decrease another by -1. Permanent attribute increases are mostly gained by passing Tests in the Discipline of the Human Body.

• Grilled Foods give you boost for 10 Teppy Mins (about 11:06 real time). You grill food on a Firepit.

Strength

• Permanent boost: You gain 1 STR for every 4 animals you add to the logbook of the Test of the Safari. Maximum permanent Strength is 7.
• Temporary boost: Eating Grilled Cucumbers gives a temporary boost +2
• Controls how much weight you may carry. If you have positive or 0 strength, you can carry 500 * (1 + str) weight. If you have negative or 0 strength, you can carry 500 / (1 - str) weight.

Timers

Various activities require a period of recovery before they can be performed again. For example, you must rest between uses of a loom. The length of time you must wait is controlled by a timer based on one of the seven statistics.

Icons in the upper-right corner of the screen indicate what timers are currently active for you.

ATITD_Timer is a 3rd party program that can be used to time in-game events in Real time or estimated Teppy or Game time.

The reuse time of a stat-based activity is:

base reuse time * 7 / (7 + stat)
