-There are three ways a player character can acquire food.+There are several ways a player character can acquire food to sustain themselves.
  
-Firstly, the Bar has a ready supply of packaged noodles. These are free out of character and come as part of the lifestyle payments you will make during downtime so have no in character cost during play. The Bar also has many other food items available for an in character costmostly canned goods and packaged sweets, these are also free out of character +|Foraging|The character scrounges for whatever they can find. Anything edible they eatanything saleable goes to the Bar to buy noodles. At an event, the character can eat noodles for freeand pays for anything else from their credit balance| 
- +|Trapping|Those with the Trapper skill are also eating meat on occasionassuming they can catch it and are willing to risk eating itOther than that, it is very similar to foragingincluding at an event|
-Secondly some player characters have skills that allow them to live off the land. These skills reduce lifestyle costs to either 50% or zerowhilst still allowing the character to access the free noodles at the Bar. Players relying entirely on these skills to eat should take careful note of the points above about the longevity of people living this way. +

-Finally, characters with access to the right facilities can craft food. The Farm currently has all the required facilities for those with access.+

 If you have brought booze with you out of character, please decant it into something opaque so that you appear to be drinking water. Booze, especially bottled spirits, are extremely expensive in character and occasionally go out as high-end loot. Access to alcohol is supposed to be limited by design. Please respect that. If you have brought booze with you out of character, please decant it into something opaque so that you appear to be drinking water.

 +Crafting food has two options, players can use either or both, they each take one week of downtime to feed one person.
 +Option 1 is growing vegetable matter. Characters can speed grow any fruit or vegetable in sufficient quantities to survive for 8 weeks.
 +Option 2 is 3D printing other types of food. Again, one downtime week produces enough to feed one person for 8 weeks.
 +The available items for printing are as follows
 +  Meat. Mince, chicken breasts, steaks are all acceptable. There should be nothing with a bone in it and nothing processed like bacon or sausages.
 +  Cheese. Nothing flavoured or with other ingredients mixed in. A piece of Brie is acceptable, Wensleydale with cranberries is not.
 +  Bread. Relatively plain white or brown bread only.
 +  Dried pasta.
 +  Milk.
 +
 +Players can work in pairs to combine printed food with fresh vegetables, taking one week of downtime each to produce a full set of all available foods.
 +
 +Any crafted food should be prepared on open fires outside the main building. Players will not have access to the onsite kitchen.
